    I’ve never cut my hair – it’s just how I was raised, I wash it once a week but one bottle of shampoo only lasts a month

    The 27-year-old pastor’s wife has taken the web by storm after revealing that she has never had so much as a trim in her entire life.

    In an age where regular trims and salon visits are the norm, Mandy proudly flaunts her waist-length locks, crediting her upbringing for her decision.

    Her locks now fall to the lower part of her back, with social media fans making the comparison to Disney character Rapunzel — something she’s called the “best compliment ever.”

    “I am 27 years old and I have never cut my hair,” she said.

    “I’ve never trimmed my ends. Not even as a kid, that’s how I was raised.

    “I absolutely love my hair, and I wouldn’t change it for anything.”

    However, social media users have protested that if she’s never cut it at all, her hair should be even longer.

    According to the stay-at-home mom who lives in Smithville, Mississippi, not cutting it herself doesn’t mean it doesn’t get a natural trim.

    She said once her hair reaches its “terminal hair length,” the ends will split and fall off on their own.

    “Everyone’s hair grows differently. Hormones play a big part in it as well,” she told TikTok followers.

    It also endures a bit of heat damage.

    “I curl my hair a lot and it burns the ends off most of the time,” she added.

    Mandy also said that she lost some hair after the birth of each of her three children .

    Surprisingly, she doesn’t splash out a load of cash on shampoo.

    She explained that she has trained her mane to only need a wash once every seven to nine days.

    But even though she’s not washing that often, when she does, it takes quite a bit of product.

    One bottle of shampoo will usually give her approximately four washes.

    “It doesn’t really get oily, so that helps out a lot,” she said.

    Though she said she doesn’t have any “breakthrough method or products” for keeping it healthy, she does use conditioner with every wash, as well as a hydrating, frizz-control serum.

    Mandy likes that she’s kept up the tradition her parents started.

    “I’ve carried it on into adulthood and I think it’s so stinking neat that I’ve had this hair, the same hair since I was a kid,” she said.

    She did, however, admit that there’s a downside when it comes to styling it.

    “My arms get so tired!” she said.
