Natacha Akide, better known as Tacha has done it. The reality TV star and entrepreneur pulled off a 24-hour marathon makeover challenge, setting a Guinness World Record for the most makeovers completed in a single day. The ambitious feat kicked off Saturday morning at Lagos’ John Randle Centre for Yoruba Culture & History and wrapped at 8:30 p.m. on Sunday, leaving fans breathless.

Even a brief power outage early in the attempt couldn’t slow her down. Tacha transformed 145 models; men and women of every shape, size, and skin tone proving her speed, skill, and stamina. Influencers like Mitchy, Venita Akpofure, Wanni, and Handi were among those who took a seat in her makeup chair, each emerging with a dazzling new look.

The Tacha Beauty Festival, the backdrop for the record attempt, was a spectacle in itself. Celebrities, influencers, and public figures flocked to cheer her on, including Alex Unusual, Toke Makinwa, Dabota Lawson, Soma Anyama, Slimcase, Ice Prince, the Egungun of Lagos, and Idris Aregbe, Special Adviser on Tourism to the Lagos State Governor. And for those who couldn’t be there in person, Naija Street Matters streamed the full event across all social media platforms, letting fans witness every transformation in real time.

Tacha, who captured the nation’s attention on Big Brother Naija Season 4, now waits for Guinness World Records’ official confirmation. She says the attempt celebrates creativity, consistency, and the global impact of Nigerian women in the beauty industry. With this achievement, Tacha not only cements her name in the record books but also shines a spotlight on Nigerian talent on the world stage.
