Today, I went to the hairdresser for the first time in the country I just moved to. Guess I don't speak the language as well as I thought. FML

Autumn: Leaves and Laughter
When the leaves fall, the laughter rises. Discover autumn stories as crisp as dried leaves!
Today, I went to my hair dresser to get my haircut. When she asked me what I wanted, I told her "the usual". She confused me with another customer and gave me a mullet. FML
Today, a colleague texted me to say that I needed a haircut. Today was also the first day I attempted to ‘do’ my hair in about 5 years. Clearly, I shouldn’t have bothered. FML
Today, I went to the hairdresser and changed my hairstyle drastically. It wasn't until she was nearly done that she said, "I just KNEW this style wasn't going to suit you." FML
Today, I got a haircut, and after thanking the stylist I went up front to pay. The lady behind the counter took one look at me, smiled, and said, "Well, now you'll need a hat." FML
Today, I got my nails done at a salon where everyone working there was Vietnamese. During my manicure, the manicurists talked about how ugly I was in their native tongue. They couldn't have known that I'd lived in Vietnam and I'm fluent in Vietnamese, but too chickenshit to speak up. FML
Today, I got a haircut and it was messed up for the fifth time in a row. FML
Today, I went to the hairdresser on a spur of the moment decision to get a quick wash and cut. Forty-five painful minutes and $180 later, I honestly don't know if anything was actually done to my hair. FML
Today, I went to go get a haircut and I asked how much it was for a haircut, shampoo, and a blow job. I meant to say blow dry. FML
Today, I went to a new hair salon that has just opened down my street. I asked them for a trim and a little bit of layering, just to keep things smart and professional. I walked out looking like a cross between a pineapple and a mop. Of course, as is often the case after a bad haircut, I have a job interview in two hours. FML
Today, I went to the hair salon to get a fresh trim before receiving my master's diploma. The hairdresser managed to shave off half my eyebrow. FML

So I guess your language skills just aren't cutting it, huh?

Hell I do that even though my hairdresser speaks English. I am terrible with the fashion vocabulary.

What a hairy situation. If anything, you could shave your head- try out the new look.

The most useless comment I've read in a while. Good job, 6.

If they're anything like the ones here in the US they might not even be speaking the same language as you, but if they are, best to get some needed practice

It could also be possible you ended up with a not-so-great hairdresser. I was born in raised in the US and I have ended up with the exact opposite of what I asked on at least three occasions. good news is, is just hair, it grows back.

Yes but if you've got very long hair and they cut a lot off, it can take years :(

Did you end up looking like Flo? (Progressive commercial)

Its hard to get what you want even in your own language, and as #8 said, you could have been with a not so great hairdresser. Bring a picture of what you want next time!!
