Today, I got a haircut, and after thanking the stylist I went up front to pay. The lady behind the counter took one look at me, smiled, and said, "Well, now you'll need a hat." FML
Collection
Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Same thing different taste
Today, after a haircut, I walked to the cash register, handed the hairdresser a $20 bill and said, "Keep the change." He looked at me with a blank expression and replied, "The haircut costs 25 dollars." FML
Assumptions
Today, I went to get a haircut. The hairdresser at the counter was kind of cute, so I had to say something non-standard. When she greeted me with her hello, I replied, "Guess what I need from you today?" She looked at me, considered, and replied, "An eyebrow wax?" FML
Today, I went to get a haircut. I have a pretty bad case of dandruff, so whenever I get one, a lot of it shows. My hairstylist called to her nearby friend twice, then looked at my hair and said, "Blech" under her breath. I got glares when I walked out. FML
Social cues
Today, I got my hair cut. When I was leaving, my stylist was standing fairly close while we were talking. She reached out to smooth out my hair; I went in for a hug. She didn't want a hug. Everyone who was there just stared at me until I left the building. FML
Today, I went to my hair dresser to get my haircut. When she asked me what I wanted, I told her "the usual". She confused me with another customer and gave me a mullet. FML
Budget cut
Today, as a college student on a budget, I treated myself to a haircut. The stylist asked if I liked it, even though it was much shorter than I wanted, and I said yes. When I got home, my roommate asked if I had joined the military. My mom asked if I was OK. I'm wearing hats for the foreseeable future. FML
Bad hair day
Today, I went to get a haircut and the first thing the lady asked was, "So, do you want to keep the mullet?" What mullet?! FML
Make it work
Today, I got my hair cut short, as it hasn’t been cut in well over a year and I was getting sick of dealing with it. I told the hairdresser I would probably look like a boy but she said it would look cute, and that she’d make sure it looks feminine. I loved how it came out, until the kid at CVS asked, “Can I help you sir?” FML
Hair today, gone tomorrow
Today, I unwittingly told the barber, “Do whatever you think looks best.” He got creative. Forty-five minutes later, I walked out with a haircut that made me look like a backup dancer in a 1990s boy band. My girlfriend said, “You're going to have to wear a beanie if you want to walk around with me.” FML
How're you doing?
Today, the checkout guy at my local store asked me if I had my hair cut. I answered and started talking about my hair, and he gave me a really weird look. He was talking to his friend, who I hadn't noticed in the queue behind me. FML

I'm assuming she meant you'll need a hat because you have less hair to keep your head warm in this weather. Just a misunderstanding, I'm betting.

The OP is a retard, as nearly everyone else has said.... it's cold, and you have less hair. Of course you need a hat

Unless you're a damn yeti, the hair on your head doesn't keep you warm. If it was that cold, OP would need a hat on their head regardless of the haircut. Plus if OP got their hair cut that short, chances are they wouldn't feel embarrassed or whatever after the comment because they would know it was regarding the cold. The FML would go something more like..... Today, I got my hair cut really short so the lady behind the counter told me I'd need a hat. Probably because it's cold out. FML Making the FML even more pointless than it already is. Everyone who is saying "it was probably because of the cold" you're an idiot. OP your haircut was ugly, find a new stylist.

The hair on your head doesn't keep you warm? WTF? Of course it does..... the hair on your scalp is EXTREMELY sensitive because most of us keep it protected under a layer of hair for our entire lives and it has many more pain sensors than the skin covering other regions of our body (it's one of the many defense mechanisms the human body has developed in order to protect vital organs). If you have hair that is at least a couple of centimetres long and then suddenly you cut it to a few milimetres, trust me, you WILL feel the difference, especially if it's cold outside.

yes but if it's cold enough outside, haircut or not your head is still going to feel cold. They make winter hats for a reason you know, if the hair on one's head was enough to keep them warm why do billions of people wear hats?? My point wasn't the degree of cold your head will feel before and after a haircut, it was that IF the comment was in fact made about the cold weather, OP would have probably picked up on it and not felt embarrassed enough to come right an FML.

Oh, my god! A person made a joke, your life must be HORRIBLE! I usually accept lesser-than-horrible stories, but things like this in which people seem to dumb to recognize a joke.. *sigh*
