Today, for the first time in months, I wore my naturally curly hair instead of straightening it. Later on at work, a customer pointed at my hair and said, "Look, Bellatrix fucked a poodle." All my coworkers laughed. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, after a lifetime of weaves and extensions, I felt brave enough to wear my natural hair to work. As soon as I clocked in, my manager yelled, “Holy shit! What happened to you? Stick your finger in a socket or something?” I was then sent home for being, “Out of uniform.” FML
Today, I came into work with a new hair cut and so far everyone has asked me If I lost a bet. FML
Today, I got a haircut and met up with a friend for lunch. Said friend then burst out laughing, saying my haircut made me look like Professor Snape. FML
Today, after growing my hair out for over a year and constantly being told that it makes me look like a girl, I finally cut it. The first thing my friends said when they saw me was that I now look like a "lesbian." FML
Today, my boss told me that, while he respects the fact that I have my own style, I have to stop wearing "that hideous wig" because apparently, it "makes the clientele uncomfortable". I don't have a wig. It's my natural hair. FML
Today, I was at the hairdresser's getting a trim. The lady doing my hair commented on how beautiful and luscious my hair was, which made me feel really good. I later overheard her telling her colleague that hair as nice as mine was wasted on someone with a face like mine. FML
Today, a little girl asked me if I was wearing a wig. It's my real hair. FML
Today, I got a haircut for the first time in almost a year. I thought it looked really nice and made me look good. On my way to CVS, I ran into one of my friends. He examined me and said, "You look... like a crack whore." FML
Today, I had my hair done for the first time in 3 years. I loved it. My boyfriend told me I look like his ex. FML
Today, after cutting my hair and shaving, I had girls hitting on me for the first time ever! Too bad they thought I was a butch lesbian, not a man. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

Don't pay them no mind. They're probably jealous because they don't have curly hair or wish to have hair like yours; so they joke about it. I bet your hair is beautiful. Don't let them bring you down. ❤️

Sorry about the haters, but I'm sure your curls look lovely! I may be biased (my hair is very curly) but I think you should stick with your natural curls, straightening takes such a toll... there are some great methods for supporting and enhancing your natural hair so that it will look as "presentable" as a straightened style... and again, forget the haters and be happy! and curly!

**** those dim wits women with curly hair are far more beautiful than women with the standard straight hair, straight hair is so common and overrated let those curl's be free and natural 😉

This is the kind of thing that Retail workers shouldn’t have to still their tongues around customers for. Anyone insults me, I’m not taking shit.

This is exactly why all business should have security cameras, and make sure they record sound! Customers suck, they lie and they are rude assholes. I got sacked from a store with no cameras cos a customer said I threw something at them, they had a witness too. I wasn’t even on the island at the time and could prove I wasn’t, but without camera evidence, I got ****** over.

When I worked in retail many moons ago, my manager banned customers who tried to bully the staff.

I hope you mean EX-coworkers. They're a bunch of idiots. You can't get someone's hair texture by having sex with them. Duh! If the customer has said, "Looks like Bellatrix's mom ****** a poodle," that would be one sick burn.

Aww, don’t let them get to you. Curly hair can be beautiful! People put down the things that threaten them. Chin up, love!

That's so strange. I absolutely love curly hair and have always wished for it. Luckily I now have a bf with a huge curly fro that I can't stop playing with. Sure, lots of people straighten their hair these days, but I thought the natural look was in style as well. If not, it SHOULD be!
