hey there tic tackers have you heard of
princess rapunzel the question is quite
obvious because we are sure you all say
yes well even before this existed there
was a group of sisters who became famous
for having hair like hers they're
believed to have been born between 1851
and 1865 in the united states there were
seven sarah victoria isabella grace
naomi mary and dora although it isn't
known for sure if they were all
biological sisters their father mr
satherland realized that the sisters had
significant musical abilities as well as
being conspicuous for their long hair
they lived in poverty so the father of
the family didn't hesitate to try to use
the girls to get money and when he
started taking them to different shows
he realized that their hair was
undoubtedly the element that was going
to get them out of poverty people were
very attracted to those long hair
during the shows little naomi married
henry bailey nephew of the co-owner of
the circus in which they performed in
1885. since the marriage bailey went on
to manage the sisters performances
every day they gathered a lot of people
and seeing the success they thought they
should sell a hair growth lotion they
did it from the recipe of the same
ointment that their mother had used with
them and that had achieved such good
results at least aesthetically they
called it the seven satherland sisters
hair grower and it was 56
with hazel 44
rum a little salt magnesium and
hydrochloric acid after that product
came many others related to hair
cleansers anti-dandruff lotions
all this generated immense benefits for
them
in addition they became national figures
and appeared in the main news of the
time this led them to a life of excess
together they bought a victorian state
on land that belonged to her grandfather
in western new york six of them were
still single so men interested in them
and their fortune appeared daily on this
date
some got married others didn't but would
mark them where their eccentricities and
madness
soon the tragedies began to happen naomi
one of them tragically died in sadness
the sisters kept her body in the house
for weeks they planned to build a
mausoleum for her but in the end they
did nothing more than preserve a
decomposing corpse in the end they ended
up burying her in the family vault
without even putting an inscription on
it their behavior began to be very
strange and with the next family death
they did the same
this time it was frederick isabella's
husband who had taken his own life the
health department had to intervene in
the house to get him out after that the
widow walked daily at night to the area
where his remains rested she did it for
two years and for two miles a day
shortly thereafter she met another man
and married him but that union brought
her nothing but misfortune
in the end she ended up selling her
shares in the company and created
another which led her to poverty and so
she died
her sisters did not have a different
fate victoria got married at the age of
50 and that caused her to separate from
her sisters forever they didn't accept
the union to the point that they didn't
accompany her in her death mary had
mental health problems which led her to
be hospitalized on different occasions
and dora died in a car accident when
they were going to try a movie about her
life new fashions had driven them into
oblivion
and so they died poor and forgotten
