The longest eyelashes in the world are not owned by women. The little Tajik grew 6 cm long cilia and got into the Guinness Book of Records. Before the adult record, he lacks a little less than a centimeter
Every woman dreams of long and thick eyelashes. What tricks do ladies resort to in order to find this beautiful halo around the eyes. Eyelashes are strengthened with oils, curled, painted, and extended. But for someone an incredible length is given by nature. A few years ago, a little Tajik Muin Bachonaev entered the Guinness Book of Records as a child with the longest eyelashes in the world. Then they reached 4 cm in length. The most interesting thing is that the eyelashes continue to grow to this day, and it seems that they do not interfere with their owner at all.
Muin Bachonaev impressed his parents immediately after birth. The eyelashes of the newborn baby were so long that they seemed to prevent him from opening his eyes. The child was immediately sent to a doctor's consultation. However, neither the optometrist nor the geneticist found any deviations and pathologies in development.
The boy really grew up absolutely healthy, and did not stand out among his peers. There was only one difference: every year his eyelashes “added” in length from 3 to 5 millimeters. When the child was 3 years old, they reached 4 cm and already literally "lay down" on the eyebrows and cheeks. Then the parents got worried again and took the baby for examination.
Cornelia de Lange syndrome was suspected at the Institute of Genetics at the Russian Academy of Medical Sciences. This is a congenital disease characterized by very thick hair, fused eyebrows and long curled eyelashes. In addition, the disease is accompanied by mental retardation and physical development problems. However, nothing of the kind was recorded at Muin. The doctors concluded that long eyelashes a child is a pronounced manifestation of ethnic characteristics. Both parents of Muin Bachonaev are Tajiks, and this people is characterized by thick hair on the face and body.

Due to his peculiarity, the boy became a real celebrity. He has already been entered into the Russian Book of Records as the absolute owner of the longest eyelashes in the country. In addition, the boy got into the Guinness Book of Records as the child with the longest eyelashes in the world. True, he is still far from a world record: among adult men, the longest eyelashes "belong" to American Stuart Mueller from Florida, USA. Their length is 6.99 cm.

Muin's parents are sure that as soon as the boy reaches adulthood, he will be able to break the world record. Now the child is 14 years old, and his eyelashes have already grown to 6 cm. Although this is an atypical piece of jewelry for a man, Muin is proud of his appearance. The teenager does not intend to trim his eyelashes, because he has long been accustomed to his peculiarity, and it does not interfere with his studies at all, play football and lead the life of an ordinary boy.

By the way, Ukraine also has its own record holder for long eyelashes. This is a Kiev resident Valery Smagliy, who managed to "grow" a piece of jewelry 3 cm long. Interestingly, this is not a congenital feature of the body - the man's eyelashes began to lengthen after he went on a special diet. Valery keeps the diet itself a secret, because he expects to profitably sell it to cosmetic companies. But he complains about the eyelashes - he says that they prevent him from looking and strongly strain the eyelids.
