You think your hair is unmanageable? Wait till you hear about Malgorzata Kulczyk, whose hair is 5 feet 2 inches long. The 34-year-old computing student from London claims she has never cut her hair, ever. Kulczyk says her Rapunzel-esque hair makes her irresistible to men. She started consciously growing and braiding her hair when she turned seven.
Kulczyk used to get regular trims to keep her ends healthy, but she told Daily Mail that, "none of my friends and family wanted to trim it for me, because they said it was still in good condition. So, I stopped having it done." She last trimmed her impressive mane over five years ago. Currently, she only spends half-an-hour every day taking care of her hair using a mixture of oils. The Londoner has made an Instagram account dedicated to her healthy hair. She regularly posts photos of her luscious locks, styled in different ways.

She has over 10k dedicated followers at the moment. She's known as the "girl with the long hair" everywhere she goes, and is very proud to be known like that. "I can't see myself ever cutting it. I can't imagine myself with short hair—nobody would recognise me," she said.

A British woman managed to hatch ducks from eggs she bought at a supermarket
When Charli Lello bought half a carton of duck eggs, little did she expect that her science experiment involving hatching them would be successful. With the Coronavirus pandemic prompting people in the UK to self-isolate, Lello realised she had a lot of time at hand. She decided to get herself a pet—or, in this case, hatch three ducks named Beep, Peep and Meep. "I got the idea from a video that popped up on my Facebook feed of someone hatching quail eggs," she told CNN. She said she didn't expect the stunt to work and she was partly correct. She bought both duck and quail eggs from a supermarket. "None of the quail eggs developed, but after six days in the incubator, I checked the duck eggs and could see veins and a very tiny wiggly embryo."
"I spent the whole two days that Beep was hatching glued to my incubator," she said. "He was a lone chick for two days, so I made a sling out of a beanie hat to carry him until Peep hatched. Meep joined a week later," she added.
The (hyper)real deal

A German artist, Philipp Weber, is winning fans on social media for his hyper-realistic paintings of female models. At first glance, it's very hard to tell if these are paintings or high-resolution photographs. "Hyper-realism for me is not only getting the maximum of details, but the maximum of feelings," added Weber. His incredibly detailed artworks, some of which take him months to complete, have won him over 80k followers on Instagram.

Are you sick and tired of being glued to a screen all day long during the lockdown? Well, you're not the only one.

The participants were 2,000 American parents, who have children between the ages of two and 18 years. They were asked several questions about the impact of the Coronavirus pandemic on their families. More than half of them (68 per cent) said they plan to limit their family's screen time this summer. The survey also found that almost half of the parents (48 per cent) plan to limit their household's screen time to a few hours each day.
