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

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, while taking a shower, my back hair caused so much friction against the bar of soap, it stuck for a good second before coming free. FML

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 was in a public restroom and slipped on some soap on the floor while I was washing my hands. As I fell, I grabbed the nearest thing to break my fall, which happened to be the hand dryer. It fell off the wall and hit me in the face. FML

Today, I was shaving my underarms, when I heard a noise. I quickly turned my head to see what it was and got the razor caught in my hair. I'm now sporting a very attractive bald patch. FML

Today, I took out my old hairdryer and turned it on. I then gave my roommate a show as I ran out of the bathroom, naked and screaming, after a spider was blasted out of the hairdryer and directly at my face. FML

Today, while at my parent's house I decided to take a shower. I had to use my sister's bathroom and once out, grabbed a comb from her cupboard to brush my hair. I then noticed the clumps of hair on my shoulders. It's a razor comb on one side, regular on the other. I used the wrong side. 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

How did you manage that? Don't those dryers "push" air towards you?

....How the hell does this happen? I'm not clicking YDI or FYL, because honestly, I am utterly perplexed.

Why the hell was your hair near enough to the hand dryer to get sucked UP into it? And hand dryers blow air OUT, not in. YDI, moron.

OMG your life SUCKS!! But don't handryers release air rather than suck it in? Oh well haha. I'd go with paper towels from now on, screw the environment!

You guys DO know the national average on the ACT is more a 20-21 then a 30, correct? So getting a 25, with good enough grades, will get you into a decent school. If you were rocking a 17, yeah enjoy community college but with a 25 you can make it into most universities. Also, #39, the ACT is out of 36. Do research before trying to belittle others. You just make yourself look like a fool.

ouuuch. I hope you can get a good hair stylist to fix it up somehow for you, and that you do well on your ACTs! I just took mine today too. :]

#39, that person was not bragging about their mark. He/she was actually disappointed. Observe and analyze thoroughly before you comment. If you do that, you would notice something as obvious as a sad face after the statement.
