This remarkable achievement has garnered significant attention and admiration from people worldwide.

Ms. Reynolds and her fellow artist Meg Wilson spent over two months constructing the massive wig, which cost the pair upwards of AUD$4,000 (£2,172) in materials alone.

The level of dedication and attention to detail that went into this project is truly remarkable, and it's no surprise that it has resulted in such an impressive feat.

It's clear that Ms. Reynolds and Ms. Wilson put their hearts and souls into creating this masterpiece, and their hard work has definitely paid off.

Not only was the fake hair carefully matched to Ms. Reynolds' own, but the underlying support structure was also a feat of engineering.

The team utilized a bike helmet, PVC pipe, pool noodles, cable ties, and aluminum rods to create a sturdy foundation for the massive wig.

However, the real challenge was making sure that the wig was well-balanced and not too heavy to wear on Ms. Reynolds' head, as per the requirements of the record.

This task proved to be the most difficult part of the construction process, but the team's perseverance paid off in the end, resulting in an incredible achievement.

A video clip shared on the official Guinness World Records' Instagram page offers a glimpse into the incredible moment when the wig was lowered onto Ms. Reynolds' head.

In the clip, an improvised crane is seen carefully maneuvering the massive wig onto her head while a group of excited onlookers cheers her on.

It's a truly awe-inspiring moment, showcasing the sheer size and scale of this incredible creation. This feat is a testament to the ingenuity and creativity of the human spirit, and it's no wonder that it has captured the attention and imagination of people worldwide.

Ms Reynolds said: 'Not having a background in structural engineering or large props-making made this quite a difficult task.

'I'd like you to bear in mind that Drew Barrymore had a high-end suite of New York prop- and costume-makers at her disposal that made the wig for her, and all she did was wear it.

'Not all she did – sorry Drew! – but, I am just saying, I have made this myself with Meg.'

She added: 'I’m curious to know if Drew will be invested in reclaiming the title.

‘I’m aware my time with the title could be fleeting.’

Dani said she wasn’t sure what would become of the record-breaking mop but that she’d be open to selling it.

She said: ‘Truthfully I don’t know. This is a question I ask myself daily as I justify keeping the wig towering over my partner’s writing desk in our home.

‘My dream would be for the wig to be proximate to the previous title-holding wig.

‘I think it would be impressive to see them in a space together.’
