A stepmum who took her 11-year-old stepdaughter to have her long hair cut short against her will has been branded a "Disney villain" by people online after the young girl was left in tears over the trim.
The woman explained that she has been in her stepdaughter's life for eight years and the pair have a "generally good relationship", but she had become irritated with the girl's hip-length hair as she claimed it was a "nightmare to take care of".
She also believed the young girl was "becoming vain" because she spent so much time taking care of her locks, so the mum decided to take her to the hairdresser to have it chopped off.
