Today, I bleached my hair for the new school year. Instead of blonde, it came out orange, making my hair look like a bloated pumpkin. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I decided I wanted to dye my hair a medium brown. Little did I know, some jerk switched the hair dye boxes. My hair is now bright orange. FML
Today, I made the decision to lighten my hair from dark brown to blonde. I thought the stylist knew what she was doing, but I ended up with my hair fried off and orange. FML
Today, yet again, I had to dye my hair brown in advance of the new school year, because my school doesn't allow "unapproved" colors, even if they're natural. FML
Today, I tried to dye my hair blonde using a DIY kit I found online. As I was washing out the dye, I realized my hair had turned bright orange. I had to wear a hat all day to avoid being seen in public with a Johnny Rotten fright-wig. FML
Today, I decided to bleach my hair but then my mom got mad and put my hair in a bun after helping bleach it. Mind you, it is currently blonde orange and black and I don't think it worked, and my hair is fried. FML
Today, I tried dying my hair blonde. I put my hair in a bun and waited for it to dye. I guess I did something wrong, because my hair is now 4 different shades of blonde/orange, along with patches of my natural black hair. FML
Today, I colored my hair. It was supposed to turn out blonde, but it became more a mix of red and brown and blonde patches. When I tried coloring everything back, a green tint was added. My hair is at the moment red, brown, blonde and green. FML
Today, after wasting $60 and 3 hours of my time getting my hair dyed to get rid of the ugly orange tint it had from the last time I got my hair dyed, it turned out to be the exact same color I started with. I go on vacation in 6 days and hate my hair. I'm not looking forward to taking pictures, that’s for sure. FML
Today, I walked into school confident about the new hair color I'd had done over the weekend. My drama teacher apparently dyed her hair the same color; everyone noticed and thought I'd copied her. FML
Today, I bleached my hair. Not only did it fry, it also has a very noticeable green tint and because of the damage, I can't dye it again for a while. Now I keep getting asked "Why so serious?" by my friends. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

Ahhh...yeah, that happened to me. I was at the salon, and the woman cutting my hair said the bleach might be too much for my scalp, so we tried the lightest blonde dye. Sure enough, I was white-trash orange. A good fix, although it won't be blonde, is to dye it a really dark brown, and in a few weeks, you'll have this really amazing auburn color.

That's what you get for thinking bleached hair would look good. I thought that trend died the painful death it deserved in the late 90s/early 00s.

YDI for wanting blonde hair

Obviously the only answer is for OP to shave their head. Re-dyeing their hair just wouldn't be logical.

Been there. Just dye it darker right away. I know it's not the healthiest thing to do for your hair, but once it's been bleached, it can't get much less healthy anyway!

I don't get why people dye their hair...

Many people are unhappy with the way they looks, so they spend time and money trying to improve themselves physically to make themselves feel better and to fit in. C'mon man, you should've learned this stuff in grade two.

but its always seemed pointless to me, it just kills your hair. I mean, at the end of it all, it's only colour... and women change their mind FAR too much to warrant doing something as destructive as hair-dying

Many people make stupid decisions before thinking about the longterm effects. A lot of people are just idiots in general. But people do what makes them happy, I guess. The mysteries of the human mind are endless.

At least now she knows for future reference that bleaching is a bad idea xD live and learn.

70- People that dye their hair are not necessarily idiots. If that's what you're implying. Please post this time.

I'm not implying that. I said that a lot of people are idiots in general because he was questioning why people dye there hair when it harms it. I guess I should have said that some people just make idiotic decisions.

there's a few reasons why I dyed my hair different colors cause I was bored of the same color all the time. it's just a preference choice really
