“It’s a little greyer these days, but more fabulous than ever,” the GWR said in a release.
Sarwan has never trimmed his beard and had first set the Guinness World Record in 2008 when his beard was 2.33 m (7 ft 8 in) long. He had smashed the previous record of 1.77 m (5 ft 9 in) held by Sweden’s Birger Pellas.
Sarwan then had his beard measured again on the set of Lo Show dei Record in Italy in 2010, extending his record with a beard of 2.49 m (8 ft 2.5 in).
It was then re-measured on October 15, 2022, and found to be 2.54 m (8 ft 3 in) long.
Sarwan, who considers his beard to be a gift from God, said he has never had any difficulties with its upkeep. He says he has always overcome any challenges that are presented with having a long beard and often wishes it were even longer.
