Today, I got a round brush stuck in my hair so badly that I couldn't get it out for 45 minutes, and had a panic attack. I had to drive through town with a brush dangling from my head, to the hair salon, and listen to them laugh while they got it out. FML

Today, I tried to use a fancy new hairstyling tool and ended up getting my hair tangled in it. I had to cut a chunk of my hair off to free myself. 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, after finally growing my curly hair down to shoulder length, I decided to get it styled for a dinner date. The stylist rolled up the barrel brush on my head and it got stuck. Hello, pixie cut. FML

Today, in the bathroom during the ACTs, my hair got stuck in the electric hand dryer. I had to rip my hair out. For future reference, hair + hand dryer = dreadlocks. FML

Hair care

Today, after spending a week detangling my hair (It took a week because my hands have nerve issues) because it felt like my scalp was glued to my scalp from not being taken care of, I cut it all off. My hair got tangled in the device twice and eventually revealed a burn on my scalp. FML

Anger management

Today, we were running late because my hair got tangled in the curtains. My mother-in-law got so angry, she hacked at it, leaving me with a bald patch, then went and sat in the car as though we were still going anywhere with her. FML

Today, I got my hair dyed at a fancy salon. While the stylist was pulling out the foils in my hair I sat up and started screaming in pain because the hot foils were burning my scalp. All she said was "oh, you're fine". I went back home to find an oozing burn wound on my scalp. FML

Today, my hair got stuck in my umbrella. I asked for help from passers-by, but all I got was weird looks as they hurried past me. FML

For some reason, I pictured Mia from Princess Diaries when I read this.

Every time I read the words 'panic attack' in an FML all I can think is that the OP is a drama queen.

I've also never had this happen to me. Perhaps some people just take better care of their hair than others?

You obviously never used one of those brushes before. They are hard to use if your new to using them. If you don't brush a certain way it easily gets wrapped around the brush and sticks like grade a duct tape.

Yeah, but having a full-blown panic attack just because you can't get a brush out of your hair? Come on.

Clearly happened and with how some people can be about their hair before certain events not that hard to believe someone can have a panic attack about it.

With those brushes it doesn't take knots to get it stuck in your hair. Once it's wrapped around the brush it sticks like tape. It's cause of the type of bristles on the brush.
