Aimed at raising £500, by Sunday the total on the JustGiving page was well over £1700.

Ed’s wife, Jamie Jago (who heads up PR for Savills) was clearly enjoying her husband’s mild terror as the shears came into view.

 

 

She tweeted: “It’s never good when all you can hear is the barber laughing so much he can’t continue…

“All for a good cause…and just think of the money we can save on shampoo, combs, curlers, and ribbons over the next few months.”
