The youngster was sound asleep, but when her mum quizzed her about it the next day, she revealed she had prepped and styled her hair ready for school in the morning.

Rachel posted the hilarious hack to the Family Lockdown tips and ideas Facebook page.

Rachel said: “So I went in last night to find my daughter fast asleep with a shower cap on.

“Why.... well her response this morning was ‘well mummy it’s simply because I do not have the time to f***y around with my hair in the morning for school, this way it keeps it neat.’

“Genius at eight years old.”

The post attracted hundreds of likes and comments from fellow parents impressed by the youngsters ingenuity.

One said: "She is going to go far! Clever girl."

Another said: "Done this for years My Mum use to put a pair of old tights over My head to keep My hair neat and tidy for School. Works a treat."

"What a good idea. I wonder if this would work with my daughters French plaits to stay neat?" added another.
