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

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, my barber repeatedly threatened to stab me with scissors while I was getting my hair cut. 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, 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
Today, I went to get my hair done. The hairdresser managed to catch my eyebrow piercing in his comb and almost rip it out. I now look like I have a gunshot wound on the upper right hand side of my face. I'm getting married in a matter of hours, and I still had to pay £100 for the hair cut. FML
Today, I was on my way to meet my partner's parents for the first time. Although I was in a rush, I managed to hop into the shower and shave. I now have a cut on my upper lip. I'm a woman. 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 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, I went to the hair salon to get a fresh trim before receiving my master's diploma. The hairdresser managed to shave off half my eyebrow. 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 decided to conquer my fear of blades, and tried shaving my legs with a razor. I sat on the side of my bathtub and wet my legs, but some of the water splashed. I slipped on it and fell back, hitting my head on the tile wall and slicing my leg open at the same time. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

This is one of the few cases in which I would actually suggest a lawsuit. I hope they didn't try to make you pay for that.

That's why you don't let your mom do your hair

Make sure it's a good barber first...

Or at least that they are not a member of some cult that practices ritual sacrifice. Ops blood may be used to summon some kind of Canadian demon to set upon the rest of the world ruining our bacon too.

3, I think you just assume most of those old school barber's are good. Maybe it's just me but I don't think it's crazy to assume that. How does their store stay open if they aren't. Op, it sounds like this was that barber's first day and hopefully he got fired immediately! I never complain to managers or try to get someone fired, but in this case I would say it's ok to do so.

At least his barber didn't go into labor you guys.

#83 although OP definitely has a reason to be upset and complain, OP should not complain solely to get the hair dresser fired. If, as you say, it was his/her first day, he/she may have been nervous, had shaky hands and made some regrettable mistakes. He/she did apologize after all. I'm sure that with some practice the hair dresser will get better. Not everyone can be perfect right off the bat.

Sweeny Todd is an excellent barber though.... and a much better killer.

Sweeney Todd only cut people he meant to cut. He was an expert at his trade. And he made some damn good pies.

Yeah, I really need to ask him what's his special ingredient. I bet it's chicken. Taste like chicken.

By "one" I hope you mean the barber who cut you repeatedly :-)

Back to supercuts you go, OP.

Did they try to run their bloody hands through your hair?

Take a selfie and post it with the name of the barber shop.

Well those were some super cuts... I wouldn't normally suggest suing but that sounds like gross negligence and you really should think about taking legal action.

It may also keep him from doing the same to someone else, only this time they do some serious injury to them.
