0:00:50 > 0:00:53(And she has to have a haircut.)

0:00:53 > 0:00:56I don't need to get my hair cut, Charlie.

0:01:42 > 0:01:46- HE SNIFFS:- Mmm, nice.

0:01:46 > 0:01:50Lola, is that appley or pear shampoo?

0:01:52 > 0:01:56Woah! Look at that! Magazines and puzzle books!

0:01:56 > 0:01:58And hey! Comics!

0:01:58 > 0:02:00Hummm.

0:02:00 > 0:02:02Ooh, look in here.

0:02:02 > 0:02:06Clippy things, brushes, rollers.

0:02:06 > 0:02:10Lola, look! Sparkly bows.

0:02:10 > 0:02:13You love sparkly bows.

0:02:13 > 0:02:18Oh, Lola, just tell me. Why don't you want your hair cut?

0:02:18 > 0:02:21Well, it's my hair and I like it long.

0:02:21 > 0:02:25I want to grow it longer till I have long bunches.

0:02:25 > 0:02:29And maybe grow it more longer so I can sit on it.

0:02:29 > 0:02:34If they cut mine shorterer, like yours, I'll look like...

0:02:34 > 0:02:39- You!- Ha-ha. There are millions of haircuts for girls.

0:02:39 > 0:02:43Long hair, short hair, curly hair. Up, down.

0:02:43 > 0:02:48You can pick any kind of haircut and still look pretty.

0:02:50 > 0:02:54Any kind of haircut, like what?

0:03:17 > 0:03:20Ooh, look. Oh, yes.

0:03:20 > 0:03:25See, look how different you can be. Well?

0:03:25 > 0:03:29But, Charlie, I don't want to be different.

0:03:29 > 0:03:32I like my hair completely the way it is.

0:03:33 > 0:03:37- Thhurpp! - But, Lola, you can't SEE properly.

0:03:37 > 0:03:40I can see properly, thank you.

0:03:40 > 0:03:43OK, how many combs am I holding up then?

0:03:43 > 0:03:46Er...five?

0:03:46 > 0:03:48- Wrong, three.- Charlie!

0:03:48 > 0:03:52I wasn't ready that time. Do another.

0:03:52 > 0:03:57Mmm, all right. What's this?

0:03:57 > 0:04:01Er... It's a banana! No, wait!

0:04:01 > 0:04:07Mmm... It's a hairdryer! I can see, see!

0:04:07 > 0:04:12Maybe you CAN see now. But if your hair was really long,

0:04:12 > 0:04:17you wouldn't be able to skip or hop or...do your ballet.

0:04:17 > 0:04:20That's just silly, Charlie.

0:04:20 > 0:04:23Of course I can dance with long hair.

0:04:33 > 0:04:35Ooh! Oh!

0:04:37 > 0:04:39Ah!

0:04:51 > 0:04:54I'd just need more practise.

0:04:54 > 0:04:59When you have your hair cut you'll be able to see and dance properly.

0:04:59 > 0:05:05I can use these pretty things to keep my hair away from my eyes.

0:05:05 > 0:05:09On specialist occasions. CHARLIE LAUGHS

0:05:09 > 0:05:13So, Charlie, I don't really need a haircut today.

0:05:13 > 0:05:17No matter what you or mum say.

0:05:18 > 0:05:22Lola, are you scared of having your hair cut?

0:05:22 > 0:05:27- Me?! Scared!- Are you scared of the snippy scissors?

0:05:27 > 0:05:31I'm absolutely NOT scared.

0:05:31 > 0:05:37Not of scissors. Not of hairdressers. Not of anything.

0:05:38 > 0:05:40Er. It's just that...

0:05:40 > 0:05:44Some people are meant to have long hair and I'm one of them.

0:05:44 > 0:05:47What people are those?

0:05:47 > 0:05:52Er... Princesses. Princesses all need long hair.

0:05:52 > 0:05:58And I'm practising to be a princess, so I need to keep my hair growing.

0:05:58 > 0:06:04OK, Lola, tell me, why do all the princesses need long hair?

0:06:04 > 0:06:09Well, once upon a time, when I'm growed up,

0:06:11 > 0:06:17Princess Lola was in her castle tower,

0:06:17 > 0:06:22combing her beautiful, long hair.

0:06:22 > 0:06:25# Hum-hum-hum #

0:06:25 > 0:06:29One day, her handsome prince rode up,

0:06:29 > 0:06:33on his pretty horse.

0:06:35 > 0:06:41And asked Princess Lola if he could visit her in her tower,

0:06:41 > 0:06:44and marry her.

0:06:44 > 0:06:49And she says, "Yes, that's fine."

0:06:49 > 0:06:56But he can't come up because there isn't a door.

0:06:58 > 0:07:03So Princess Lola dangled her hair over the top.

0:07:03 > 0:07:06Just like a climbing rope.

0:07:06 > 0:07:09So the nice Prince could climb up,

0:07:09 > 0:07:12to say hello.

0:07:12 > 0:07:19But because her wicked, mean brother, Charlie, made her cut her hair

0:07:19 > 0:07:23her hair was too short!

0:07:23 > 0:07:27The nice prince couldn't reach it.

0:07:27 > 0:07:34So he couldn't climb up to say hello and couldn't marry Princess Lola.

0:07:34 > 0:07:38And now she is all alone and very, very sad.

0:07:38 > 0:07:43For ever and ever. The end!

0:07:43 > 0:07:47OK, mum says you're next.

0:07:47 > 0:07:51- Next!- Yeah.- No, not next! - Come on, Lola.

0:07:51 > 0:07:55Quick brush, quick trim, then it's all over.

0:07:55 > 0:08:01Not the brushing, Charlie! Please, no brushing!

0:08:01 > 0:08:05Oh! It's the brushing you don't like.

0:08:05 > 0:08:09Oh...maybe. SNIFFS

0:08:09 > 0:08:11Why didn't you tell me before?

0:08:11 > 0:08:16- Everyone has to brush their hair, Lola.- But it hurts!

0:08:16 > 0:08:20And I don't like...the knots.

0:08:21 > 0:08:26That's why there are knots, because you don't brush your hair.

0:08:26 > 0:08:30That's why it looks like a bird's nest.

0:08:30 > 0:08:35A big, knotty, clumpy bird's nest.

0:08:35 > 0:08:38Urgh!

0:08:38 > 0:08:43You don't want to go around with a bird's nest on your head, do you?

0:08:43 > 0:08:48No, I definitely don't want a bird's nest on my head, Charlie.

0:08:48 > 0:08:52- OK?- OK.

0:08:53 > 0:08:55Ow!

0:08:56 > 0:08:57Ow!

0:08:57 > 0:08:59Ow-ow-ow-ow!

0:08:59 > 0:09:02Sorry, but it's tangley.

0:09:02 > 0:09:07- Stop pulling it, then.- I'm trying. - Ow!

0:09:11 > 0:09:15- Mmm.- Is that better?- Much better.

0:09:15 > 0:09:21Now people won't think I have chirpy birds and twigs in my hair.

0:09:21 > 0:09:25I'll be back in a second, Charlie.

0:09:26 > 0:09:29Oh, Lola.

0:09:34 > 0:09:37So how's the brushing going, Lola?

0:09:37 > 0:09:42Oh, the brushing is easy-peasy now, Charlie.

0:09:42 > 0:09:44I brush my hair ALL the time.

0:09:46 > 0:09:51- No more knots, then?- No more knots.

0:09:54 > 0:09:57So, er, why are you wearing a hat?

0:09:57 > 0:10:01Cos, maybe I think...

0:10:01 > 0:10:04I look slightly, a bit...

0:10:04 > 0:10:08like you, Charlie.

0:10:09 > 0:10:13No, you don't, Lola. You look...

0:10:14 > 0:10:17You look just like a princess.

0:10:17 > 0:10:23- Princess No Knots!- Princess No Knots.

0:10:26 > 0:10:30THEY LAUGH
