Would you allow a child of eight trim your hair? Probably not. To her credit, Holly Willoughby possessed the necessary amount of guts!
The host of This Morning caused widespread panic among her audience when she let her kid to cut her blonde hair with scissors while he was helping her out in the kitchen.
Holly Baldwin, age 41, and her husband Dan Baldwin, whom she wed in 2007, are the parents of their son Chester. In addition, the pair is parents to Harry, who is 13, and Belle, who is 11.
The host of Dancing on Ice uploaded a video of Chester giving her a haircut, striking terror into the hearts of her millions of followers.
‘Chester decided it was time… ✂️✂️✂️… When your 8 year old gets hold of the scissors … 💇🏼’, she captioned the post.
‘Are you ready, Chester?’, Holly can be heard saying before gasping, while her youngest tries to keep a steady hand.


‘Make it nice and straight!’, she urged – although it is safe to say that Chester did not, in fact, make it nice and straight.
When he cut the hair, a significant amount of it fell to the ground, so it wasn’t simply the ends of the strands that he removed.
The good news is that not only was there someone there to hold the comb and direct the younger child as he cut, but the friend who was taking the photos also appeared to be an experienced hairdresser.
Because of this, even if Chester gave it his best attempt, there was a trained expert waiting in the wings to clean up the work he had done.
In addition, she displayed her ‘new hair’ in an outfit shot taken before to her appearance on This Morning on Monday, and the bob looks great on her!
Nevertheless, Holly’s famous friends were stunned, with Abbey Clancy commenting: ‘Omg holl !!!!! ❤️’

Eager to see the finished result, Laura Adlington wrote: ‘Love the shorter hair on you! Really suits you 😍’
One follower laughed: ‘This gives me anxiety 😂 but you will rock shorter hair! Xx’
However, not all of the responses were so favourable, as some people appeared to think that Chester Scissorhands was actually doing his mother’s hair.

‘Some of the comments are so harsh, obviously she’s getting it cut properly and let Chester join in to include him,’ a fan explained.
Holly appears to have gone for the trim ahead of the beginning of the new Dancing On Ice series, which begins on Sunday.
The much-loved star will return to the big screen alongside Phillip Schofield, most likely looking stunning and giving us all hair/make-up/outfit envy.
This year’s cast includes Patsy Palmer from EastEnders, Siva Kaneswaran from The Wanted, and Love Island winner Ekinsu Cülcülolu.
