'˜Clippity clop' ahead of charity hair chop
Rosie-Mai Manger, eight, of Spanby, had the haircut in aid of The Little Princess Trust, a charity which makes real hair wigs for children who have lost their own hair through cancer treatment or illness.
About a year ago, her hair was getting long and difficult to manage.

The cut took place at Angel Blades Hair and Beauty, in Billingborough, last Saturday.
Rosie-Mai arrived at the salon in a horse-drawn carriage. Her father Chris works as a carriage driver, and thought it would ‘make more of a big deal’ of Rosie-Mai’s efforts.
They also travelled around the rest of the village.
Chris said: “She was definitely nervous on the day.”
Rosie-Mai told The Standard that she likes her shorter hair.
