Reality TV Personality Tacha Breaks Barriers As She Sets Double Guinness Record For Fastest Cosmetic Makeovers [VIDEO]

 

Reality television personality and entrepreneur Anita Natacha Akide, popularly known as Tacha, has officially entered the Guinness World Records after achieving two remarkable milestones in the world of beauty and cosmetics. The Guinness World Records organization confirmed her new titles for the most cosmetic makeovers completed within both eight and twenty-four hours. This recognition places Tacha among the few Nigerians to hold multiple world records at once, cementing her status as a global trailblazer in the beauty industry.

According to the Guinness World Records website, Tacha successfully completed 82 makeovers in just 8 hours and an astonishing 144 makeovers in 24 hours. These numbers surpass the previous record set by Mary Yongai of Sierra Leone, who had held the title before the Nigerian star’s groundbreaking performance. The confirmation followed weeks of verification, documentation, and video evidence review by the Guinness Records team.

The announcement sparked massive celebrations on social media, where Tacha expressed her gratitude, joy, and emotions in a heartfelt post that immediately went viral. In her message, she praised God, paid tribute to her late mother, and appreciated her dedicated team and loyal fans known as the Titans. Her words reflected the deep emotional journey behind the achievement, filled with persistence, tears, faith, and teamwork.

Tacha described the challenge as an intense and emotional experience. She revealed moments of exhaustion and near-collapse, recalling how her team encouraged her to keep going despite power outages and the immense physical strain of performing over a hundred makeovers within a day. “When the lights went out, you stayed; when the pressure got loud, you listened,” she wrote, thanking her assistants and colleagues for their resilience and support.

She also expressed deep appreciation to her fans, acknowledging their unwavering loyalty through her career’s highs and lows. The Titans, known for their fierce dedication, flooded social media platforms with congratulatory messages, tagging her as a symbol of perseverance and determination. Tacha credited their encouragement for helping her remain focused and committed throughout the record attempt, emphasizing that their faith in her pushed her to new heights.

Her message went beyond celebration, serving as inspiration to dreamers across the world. She urged people not to give up despite challenges, adding that critics often become silent witnesses to greatness. “If you don’t have haters, pray for haters because they’ll push you into purpose,” she wrote. The post has since attracted thousands of shares and comments, reflecting how her journey resonates with a wide audience.

The record-breaking accomplishment also comes just weeks before her birthday, which she described as a perfect early gift. She hinted at an upcoming celebration, promising fans an unforgettable event. The Guinness recognition adds to her growing list of achievements, reinforcing her brand as a powerful and self-made icon in Nigeria’s entertainment and fashion scene.

Tacha’s triumph showcases not just her talent as a makeup artist but also her commitment to excellence, perseverance, and innovation. Her story stands as a reminder that determination, faith, and teamwork can turn bold dreams into history-making realities. With her name now etched in the Guinness World Records, Tacha has not only redefined what it means to be a beauty entrepreneur but has also placed Nigeria once again on the global stage of extraordinary achievers.
