  • has the world's largest afro measuring a staggering 4 foot and 4 inches around.

  • went natural. One time I strived to get the hair that was straight and now I want it big

  • and poofy.

  • 00:22 Aevin: To get all the attention in public

  • - it's always a positive thing. It's not like people really come up and say anything mean.

  • it was 4 feet 4 inches around. I'm not sure how big it could get, but I mean I'll try

  • it to dry, almost 2 days, like people think I'm joking, I'm remember washing my hair on

  • 01:41 COMM: Aevin has recently come out of a long-term
