Tacha Sets New Guinness World Record with 144 Makeovers in 24 Hours

Reality TV star and entrepreneur Anita Natacha Akide, popularly known as Tacha, has made history by completing 144 makeovers within 24 hours, setting a new Guinness World Record. The groundbreaking feat was achieved in Lagos amidst cheers from fans, celebrities, and supporters who witnessed the intense and emotional marathon.

Tacha, known for her bold personality since her time on Big Brother Naija, began the challenge with a clear goal: to inspire young creatives and show that with determination, anything is achievable. She worked non-stop through the day and night, applying makeup to different models under strict time and quality conditions.

The record-breaking event took place in a controlled environment with Guinness World Records observers and independent witnesses present to ensure compliance with the organization's guidelines. Each makeover had to meet specific beauty standards, and the transition between models was closely timed.

Social media erupted in support as the event was live-streamed across multiple platforms. Hashtags like #TachaGWR and #MakeupMarathon trended for hours, with fans praising her energy, consistency, and resilience. The challenge wasn't just about numbers but about precision, artistry, and endurance.

Tacha expressed gratitude after the event, thanking her team, models, sponsors, and fans for their unwavering support. "This is beyond me—it's for every young person who thinks their dream is too big. I did it for all of us," she said, visibly emotional.

Makeup artists and beauty professionals across Africa have hailed Tacha's attempt as a massive win for the industry, especially in a space where African talent often goes unrecognized globally. Her record now sets a new benchmark in the beauty world.

Industry experts believe this record could open up opportunities for more African creatives to attempt similar global milestones. It also highlights the evolving nature of beauty and fashion as influential sectors in entertainment and entrepreneurship.

Tacha’s record-breaking moment comes at a time when Guinness World Records has seen a surge in Nigerian participants. Her success adds to a growing list of Nigerians gaining global recognition for remarkable achievements.

Though the official confirmation from Guinness World Records is still pending, all verification processes are underway. If approved, Tacha will become the first African woman to hold the title for most makeovers in 24 hours—a truly iconic achievement.
