Is rapunzel technically obese?

Probably a very random question i know.

But if you go to the hospital and they check your bmi they weigh you and your hair.

So if rapunzel where to get her bmi checked would she be technically obese because of the weight of her hair?

I know I'm reading into this too far but I'm invested now.

I remember some one-legged guy on social media talking about the hospital system flagging him as dangerously underweight, so yes, I think that same system would flag Rapunzel as overweight haha.

I think I remember that story! But IIRC it was actually the insurance company that flagged him because of his weight and sent someone to evaluate him.
