Today, I decided to save a few bucks and let my mother cut my hair. I then had to wait in the hospital for attention due to the fact that she cut the tip of my ear off. FML
Collection
Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I woke up to the sound of scissors. My mom was cutting my hair while I was asleep. FML
Today, I got a haircut. I wanted three inches cut off. When the lady finished, she had cut off everything but three inches of my hair. FML
Today, I thought I would treat myself to a shave and a haircut at a proper barber, instead of just a haircut at Supercuts. After many "Oops", "Sorry", even an "Oh dear", I left with no hair cut, and blood streaming from multiple slices in my face from the shave. I think one might need stitches. FML
Today, I came to the decision that I needed some variety in my life, so I decided to get a haircut. My mom insisted that she could do it and that she had experience because she cuts my dad's short hair. I had thick, long hair. Now, my hair is uneven, ugly and short. FML
Today, as a broke 19-year-old college student, I thought I could save money by cutting my own hair before a presentation. I did one side fine, got distracted and somehow made the other side two inches shorter. I spent the whole class angling my head like I had a neck injury. 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, while getting my hair done, I was annoyed that the beautician was not paying attention while straightening my hair. After asking her three times to watch what she was doing, I grabbed the iron and said "let me do it, you're going to burn me!". I then burned two layers of skin off my ear. FML
Today, I let my friend cut my hair and after a few minutes, she looked at what she had done and then she ran out of the room, laughing. FML
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, my mum started yelling at me for leaving scissors on my desk, which my five year-old sister found and chopped all her hair off. She had a lump of hair as proof. After three minutes of her yelling, me crying and apologizing, she laughed and said she was joking. She'd just given my sister a haircut. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

At least it was cheaper than plastic surgery. No, but seriously, this is why you usually let professionals cut your hair:) Usually a better job, but more expensive. But at least you get the medical attention needed, so you will be fine. Fyl though But the hospital bill is probably a little expensive. I know nothing of the American health system

Thank you for the honest reply 18:) Sometimes I hate not explaining enough and be misunderstood so. And it's a nice way to excercice my English skills. So I mostly win on those comments.

I quite enjoy Keevarou's comments. If I want a deeper understanding of an FML, I always read his comments and he provides good ways to solving the problems faced too.
mhopper 13
Keevarou is so positive and optimistic. :) Your English is MUCH better than most of the morons here!
jtthegr8 26
Like i love reading it half the time because it's like "this guy is like...a philosopher!" but sometimes i'm like meh :b
yahoowizard 16
23 tries to help Keevarou improve his English, gets thumbed down
Keevarou 17
35, thats how FML is sometimes, don't worry, he just did me a favor :) And we should make a new meme just to annoy doc. "douchebag FML" And I know I still got a long way to go when concerning English, but we live to learn. And I mostly just say my opinion when concerning FML's. So it can be lenghty, or it can not be. And it's annoying even for me when I have the positive attitude, I don't even have count on how many people irl have told me to be less happy/positive, it's a gift and a curse.

I usually read Keevarous comments the voice of those two Norwegian guys from family guy with the long blond hair that know english but still have the accents
redbluegreen 41
I think some people are taking commenting way too seriously. I do enjoy the longer, thought out comments though.
ManInTheMachine 20
I agree with redbluegreen. I'd much rather read Keevarou's comments, which are usually well thought out, than read some bullshit "she's/he's a keeper" or "sucks bro" comment.
teague95 16
I'd rather read Keevarou's well thought out "essay" than the 19 comments that say "doesn't matter had sex" anyday.
auzz1_pride 9
I enjoy reading keevarous comments because he makes them interesting and I like pretty much all Norwegians. :)

Keevarou is the male Norwegian version of Cinn. I miss her insight here. Oh, and Keevarou - I'm making a rage face at you for that meme comment. Damn you, sir.

It is expensive if you don't have insurance. Just an aspirin is an arm and a leg in a hospital.
Tali147 16
I hope to come as far in my English as you have Keevarou. I am not brave enough to write a very long comment yet. It takes me along time to write shorter ones.
icemonkey14 2
Thank you 35 at least someone understands lol

If that was half an essay...I'd hate to think how long 18's essays normally are.
TiffanyGeorges 5
Wait keevarou- english isn't your first language?! I had no idea (sorry i'm super new to fml) i completly enjoy reading your comments=) there very well thoughtout unlike some people's on here... Even before i had an FML account i would read ur comments like if i didnt understand an FML. French is my first language but ive been speaking english for 15 years now

I love Keevarou's comments. All my comments are practically novels compared to his. And everytime I see his picture I smile because he's adorable! And Norweigan. :D

Kefka91 15
I'll hop on the Keevarou love train here. I love your comments AND you're pretty damn attractive in my opinion. (norwegian + reincarnation of Cobain = sign me up). Aaaaand now this is getting creepy... Keep up the good comments...

What are they going to call u now? Vangh goh? And my mom cuts my hair but she is a professional
NeatNit 33
Yeah, a lesson everyone must learn at one point or another: DON'T let your mom cut your hair.
CareFace 16
BUT MOMMY SAYS I LOOK BEAUTIFUL...!! *runs away rocking a bowl cut*
Happy_101 10
Unless she's a beautician...
CookieGirl4ever 13
^ Lol, I'm guessing OP's mom isn't one… or at least not a very good one.

3 - I always let my mom cut and do my hair, she did a wonderful job.
fmessiah 19
I'm a single Dad and always cut my daughters hair, it isn't hard and I often get people stopping me at shops asking me where I get their hair cut because it looks great.
nentenkupo 19
My mom is a former professional hairstylist :-)
Mauskau 36
Ouch. Hopefully you don't have to pay for that.
Pegasister_fml 5
I think OP already did... It cost OP a slice of their ear. Better than an arm and leg though, right?
TwiztedYuri 9
just a flesh wound
mccaincracker 6
I figured OP's mom would have his sewed it back on
SkoomaKi 28
You paid for it heavily with some bucks and the tip of your ear.

Ear circumcision. Ow.

"Keep the tip mom."
Sonychka 13
Ouch, that sucks OP. Did the hair cut at least look good?
MassaKerr 9
Maybe some hair was left to cover his ears?
mazio09210517 5
I've learned this the hard way! never ever let your mom cut your hair! even if she's a professional. shell be biased or give you a mullet because its "funny"
OhDearBetrayal 25
Your mom must hate you if you're speaking from experience.
nictransitglory 4
I known what you mean. I'm always asking my mom for a mullet and the bitch gives me a nice, attractive cut. Sometimes at work I like to just be able to step out back for a little party.
Philintheblankz 14
Next time just pay the money for a professional hair stylist or barber to cut your hair
yahoowizard 16
Am i the only one that really wants to try to cut his own hair
CookieGirl4ever 13
^ I want to too, lol.
CookieGirl4ever 13
Lol ya I've realized that sounded better in my head so everyone dislike me now.
GRRSOM 7
Give your mom another tip: don't use scissors.
CookieGirl4ever 13
Don't let your mom play with scissors anymore. ;)

What in the actual ****? How does that even happen?

Eat a man and use the bathroom?
ICastillo 25
No I meant how in the hell do you cut the tip of someones ear off.
