A two year old toddler was 'left looking like Friar Tuck' after 'scalping' herself with her hairdresser mum's scissors - then having to sport David Bowie's 80s barnet from Labyrinth as her unruly locks grew back. Chloe Hope managed to indulge in her first DIY haircut after grabbing the scissors - usually stashed high out of reach - that were placed on a countertop while her parents were decorating.
Mum Jo Hope had nipped to the bathroom for 'about a minute' to brush her teeth and was horrified to come out and discover the proud tot clutching tufts of her hair and declaring she looked 'pretty'. The then two-and-a-half-year-old had snipped the top of her previously shoulder-length blonde locks to a 1cm-long circular patch on her head - earning her the nickname Friar Tuck.
Hairdresser and colour technician Jo, 31, spent weeks covering Chloe's head with headbands and hats in a desperate bid to hide the botched 'do as her hair grew back. Chloe's self-administered cut left her rocking a mullet two months later - looking just like David Bowie as the Goblin King in the 80s' cult-classic Labyrinth.
