Reality TV star and entrepreneur, Natasha Akide, popularly known as Tacha, has revealed why she decided to host her Guinness World Record attempt for the most makeovers done in 24 hours in Lagos, Nigeria, instead of the United Kingdom.
Speaking with influencer Egungun at her Tacha Beauty Festival, the former Big Brother Naija star said her choice was driven by a strong desire to promote Nigeria’s creative and entrepreneurial spirit.
According to her, the record attempt was not just about setting a new global mark but also about showcasing the talent, vibrancy, and potential of Nigeria’s beauty industry.
“London won’t give me the vibes I want. I had sponsorship offers from international brands, and we initially planned to do it in London. But it always makes sense to carry your country along,” Tacha explained.
The 24-hour record attempt kicked off on Saturday night, October 11, 2025, in Lagos, with Tacha aiming for 150 makeovers within the timeframe.
By Sunday morning, October 12, 2025, Tacha had completed 115 makeovers in 12 hours, surpassing the previous Guinness World Record of 113 makeovers done in 24 hours.
