A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.

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 decided to take a relaxing shower. My face mask made my face break out in hives. While exfoliating, my nipples became chafed. Then I slipped and cut myself while shaving. FML

Back to reality
Today, I shaved off the beard I had been forced to grow over the past 3 weeks due to forgetting my razor when away. Fifteen minutes in, with half my beard gone, I realised I had got a tan everywhere but my beard. I now have a large white patch on my face. FML

Today, I saw a dermatologist to see if they would remove my moles for cosmetic reasons. Turns out 5 of them are suspicious and need to be removed anyway. Good news: I don’t have to pay for it. Bad news: it might be because they’re cancerous. FML

Today, my boyfriend told me there was a tick on my shoulder and that he would remove it so I shouldn't worry. After about a half hour, lots of blood, and a ton of pain, he told me it was just a mole. FML

Can't face it
Today, thanks to all my medications, I've been growing thick, dark hair on my face. I decided to use hair removal cream instead of shaving. The cream removed every trace of hair, but also made my skin about 4 times lighter than the rest of my face. It's even more noticeable than the beard. FML

Today, I tried to bleach my upper lip hair. I now have a bright red mustache. FML

Today, I had my back waxed to deal with the uncontrollable hair growth. Afterwards, I broke out in numerous pimples where the hair used to be. Basically, a lose-lose situation. FML

Seriously, go to the doc's because 1/ could be cancerous 2/ removing moles like that disrupts cells and could lead to cancer 3/ disfiguration reasons. Just a suggestion.

plus if removing a mole is that easy, no one would have moles.

Wait...disrupts cells and could lead to cancer? What??! Oh please tell us your sources for this groundbreaking medical revelation. I had no idea that cutting skin can lead to cancer! Quick, alert the paper companies and tell them that paper cuts cause cancer! And call Ginsu and tell them their knives are carcinogenic! Mass panic shall ensue!!

I did this once and the mole never came back. LOL on the cancer thing.

42- I think he was implying that the mole could be a benign tumour and disrupting /those/ cells can lead to cancer. If anything, he wasn't wrong since disrupted cells is basically what cancer is.

Shadmed - no. Just no. Cutting benign cells in no way makes them cancerous. That takes DNA mutations. There is not one type of cell that turns into cancer by cutting or "disrupting". He was entirely, completely, 100%, wholly, and in all other ways wrong.

61- My bad, I wasn't clear enough. I never said the cutting itself was a problem, but leaving the cells exposed to another agents might cause problems. That's why moles should be removed with sterilized equipment by a professional, not by the bearer with a razor. Secondly, are you saying a tumour is not a ball of disrupted cells?

And yet you are not allowed to serve in the military in many countries if you have a large mole on your neck - uniforms' collars can cut it off, and thus have a risk for cancer ... in other countries, they just make you remove it with doctor's help. Cutting of moles can be cancerous ... you're exposing cancer cells to a new, uncontrolled environment. No guarantee that cancer will occur, but still happens more often than someone might think.
