RTE star Kathryn Thomas unrecognisable in hilarious childhood photo

Kathryn Thomas' hair is usually styled to perfection, but the presenter revealed this was not always the case.

The RTE star took to Instagram to share a hilarious throwback photo from her childhood..

She explained that she was considering cutting her three-year-old daughter's hair herself, until her sister made her reconsider.

Kathryn shared a photo from her school days posing with her sister and her dodgy haircut is very relatable.

The Operation Transformation host revealed that the hairstyle was thanks to the efforts of her father, and it looks like he was not talented with a scissors.

In the snap, a young Kathryn has a short, heavy fringe and much darker hair than her current blonde locks.

‘Was contemplating cutting Ellie’s hair today until @LinThomasIE sent me this to remind me that while parents know best in many areas hairdressing is generally not one of them,’ she wrote on her Instagram stories.

‘This was my dad’s attempt before the end of year official photo!’

Kathryn is getting ready to welcome her second child any day now. The TV star and her husband Padraig McLoughlin already have a little girl Ellie.
