October 21, 2006: Guy finally washes hair after 26 years

Undertoad · 10-21-2006, 09:54 AM

Neatorama notices this at Weird Asia News. (Unsurprising they have a website called that?)

Meet 80-year-old Mr. Luo of Chong Qing city. He hadn't washed his hair in 26 years when he decided he needed a fresh look (and, I'm guessing, a fresh smell) for an upcoming animal sports event. (They don't say anything more about this event, which surely would be IotD fodder...)

All the townspeople lined up to give him a hand. After many failed attempts using regular shampoo, they spent a total of 5 hours and 3 packs of laundry detergent to wash him clean.

That's disturbing..

Spexxvet · 10-21-2006, 11:04 AM

Look how filthy the water is. Should have stuck him in a washing machine.

Ibby · 10-21-2006, 11:16 AM

Jus' slice it all off, it'd be quicker and easier... and I'm sure theres less hair than dirt up there anyway.

KinkyVixen · 10-21-2006, 11:19 AM

holy fuck, how does he not step on his beard? If it were me (which would be really scary in the first place seeing as how I'm a chick) I know i'd step on it and pull myself into a face plant.

Is this conclusive evidence that washing hair causes hair loss?

Elspode · 10-21-2006, 12:14 PM

I'm less disturbed by the amount of filth than I am at the prospect of someone having to comb all that shit out. Looks like a rat's nest on steroids.

WTF?
Again with the crazy shit in Asia!!!!

Next thing you know, we will be seeing pics of Filthy Thai Mustache Wrestling Champions hitting each others giant red logs with bricks swung from wires attached to their testicles by jumper cable clamps.

That was IOTD in 2002.

Looks like his Grandbaby doesn't recognize him without the dirt....or smell.

"Upcoming animal sports event"..... Isn't that where all those animal fighting pictures come from?

There was an Old Man with a Beard

There was an Old Man with a beard ,
Who said, "It is just as I feared! --
Two Owls and a Hen, four Larks and a Wren,
Have all built their nests in my beard.

"Upcoming animal sports event"

Maybe it involved dogs and he didn't want to be mistaken for roadkill and be having the dogs trying to roll around in/on him.

Trilby · 10-22-2006, 08:50 AM

I wonder what kind of wildlife his hair and beard supported.

Don't worry. Lice, fleas, and scabies hang on even after a good washing. Laundry detergent doesn't usually contain lindane.
