The daughter of one of Britain’s biggest family’s has shared the shocking results of her two-year-old’s DIY haircut.
Chloe Radford, 29, whose parents Noel and Sue Radford have 22 children, shared pictures of her daughter Mila’s handiwork to TikTok.
In the clip, which has been viewed more than 218,000 times, Chloe tells fans: ‘My two-year-old wants to show you her haircut that she’s given herself.
‘You better say something nice.’
Dressed in a pink gingham dress, Mila walks right up to the camera, revealing the cropped and uneven hairstyle she’s given herself.
While the little girl’s locks generally fall to her shoulders, the front section is short and spikey, with almost bald patches as a result of her cutting her hair very close to her scalp.
Chloe maintains an upbeat appearance as she pulls Mila’s hair off her face to show the full extent of the dramatic chop – but the mother-of-two’s wide eyes and crossed arms says it all.
She says, ‘Ah, gorgeous,’ before standing back and asking her child, ‘Are you pleased with yourself?’

Smiling Mila evokes Minnie Mouse in her reply, appearing to have no regrets at all, while Chloe looks on with a dubious expression on her face.
In the caption to the post, Chloe adds: ‘Honestly, if I don’t laugh, I’ll cry’ followed by two crying emojis.
The content creator’s post got an amazing response, with many people taking the opportunity to share their own children’s misadventures.
One person said: ‘Stay strong Chole. About 10 years ago my granddaughter cut her ponytail off while my daughter was on the phone talking to me.
‘I heard a scream and my daughter dropped the phone came back with the pony tail in her hand to show me what her daughter had done. She was two at the time’.
Another weighed in, exclaiming: ‘Oh my god! My daughter did that a week before we had to go to a wedding – I didn’t know whether to laugh or cry’.
A third despaired: ‘My daughter did this but was nine and it happened just before Covid, and couldn’t get a hairdresser to help fix it’.
Someone else admitted: ‘I only just managed to hold in my tears when my daughter did hers! She was five! I thought I had successfully got past the age where they cut their own hair!’

While a fifth TikToker asked: ‘Why do they always have to take it to the scalp though?! My daughter did this and I actually cried a whole river’.
Yet, at least one person took a more lighthearted view, writing: ‘Are they even kids if they don’t cut their own hair? Every child is guilty of this’.
Back in May, Chloe shared a relatable update about her new ‘reality’ just over a week after giving birth to her second child, Bodhi Reign.
Born on April 28, Bodhi, whom Chloe shares with her security guard boyfriend Jacob Wallace, is Sue and Noel Radford’s 14th grandchild.
And, having shared the news of her son’s birth on TikTok, where she has almost 111,000 followers, Chloe returned to the platform to give fans a relatable update on her new ‘reality’ as a mother-of-two.
While Chloe, who was dressed in blue pyjamas, thought she looked ‘knackered’, she appeared cheerful in the clip as she proudly told viewers: ‘We’re on day six as a family of four.’
Drawing attention to the family’s ‘newest addition’, she said: ‘I feel like we’re still just trying to find our rhythm a bit with everything, get a little routine going.’
Chloe admitted that ‘everything just seems to be a bit all over the place’ – a feeling the vast majority of new mothers would be able to relate to – before giving viewers a snapshot of her new ‘reality’.

Pointing to the sink, where a few plates had piled up, she added: ‘Here’s a bit of reality…’
In another update with which many new mothers could empathise, Chloe opened up about her breastfeeding journey.
Explaining that breastfeeding on the whole was ‘going really, really well,’ Chloe did point out that she had been feeling sore on one side of her chest.
‘It was just so painful,’ she said, before revealing that she had discovered a product that made it feel ‘so much better’.
The fix in question was Lansinoh’s Soothies Cooling Gel Pads, which were designed to ‘soothe and protect cracked nipples between feeds,’ according to the brand’s website.
Having used the product, she ‘did manage to feed him again on that side,’ Chloe said.
Elsewhere in the video, which has been viewed 151,000 times, the mother-of-two referred to daughter Mila, who will be three this month, praising her for being ‘amazing’ with her little brother.
