Today, I was getting ready for a date. I spent extra time getting ready in the shower, making sure I was all shaved. I was shaving my upper lip to make sure I didn't have a mustache. I cut my lip really badly, leaving the most noticable razor cut on my face for my date. I'm a girl. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
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 went to the hair salon to cut 6 inches off my hair. When I got there, I decided to get my upper lip waxed for the first time. When my boyfriend came to pick me up for our date, I asked if he noticed anything different about me, the first thing he said was, "I see you got rid of your mustache." FML
Today, I got in the shower, washed my hair and shaved because I wanted to look great for a big date. I got out, brushed and dried my hair and spent an hour putting it up in the perfect hairstyle. Running late, I quickly put on my new dress, looked down and realized i had only shaved one leg. FML
Today, I went on a date with a guy I've had a crush on for a while. I shaved my legs and armpits and wore a short dress. It wasn't until I got to the meeting that I noticed I only shaved one of my legs. FML
Today, I rushed out of the bathroom with toothpaste smeared all over my chin and cheek. I was so anxious about going on a date that I didn’t realize this until said date pointed it out halfway through dinner. FML
Today, I wanted to look really good for my date. I was a little self-conscious, so I decided to use Nair on my upper lip just in case I had a female mustache. Unfortunately, it turns out I'm allergic to Nair. Now I DO have a mustache. A rash mustache. FML
Today, while on a date with the guy of my dreams, I cut my tongue so bad it bled for an hour. I managed to cut it on the plastic spoon from my coffee. FML
Today, my fiancé asked me to do some manscaping. I got a little overzealous and now I look like a 12-year-old boy with razor burn. FML
Today, I prepared for my first date in two years. I shaved my legs, did my hair and nails, painted my face, found the perfect outfit, then waited for hours for a man who never came. FML
Today, I waxed my upper lip hair. My boyfriend later told me that he missed my mustache rubbing onto his. FML

No No No No No. What the hell were you THINKING shaving your FACE? You know how guys get stubble? You may as well say goodbye to your sex life now before you get too attached.

wow. all of you are retarded. no, her lip hair will not grow back looking like a man's mustache and all that. and she won't get 5 o'clock shadow. girls don't have nearly as much testosterone as men, so this will not happen. also, another solution that no one has mentioned that i have been using for years: they make these sort of electric razors for removal of facial hair for women. it never cuts, burns, hurts, or anything. just do it every morning, and you can't even see or feel it coming back by night. and i'm a pretty hairy person b/c i'm part middle eastern...and this totally works.

Doctors recommend plucking if you must do anything. However... remember how painful it was to have a pimple on the edge of your lip? Think what it would be like to have 100 of them all over your upper lip. Now reconsider that plucking idea. Anyway if you had shaved the day before, maybe you wouldn't have that problem? Or if you don't really have a noticeable mustache, leave your lip alone? I dunno, but that sucks, hope the date went okay anyway...

I don't get why all these people are saying you'll get thick, scratchy stubble when your hair grows back. I shave my little bit of facial hair and no one has ever noticed. I've been dating my boyfriend for almost a year and he still honest to god doesn't know I have some hair on my upper lip. Do you girls really have that thick of hair on your face to where it grows back like hard stubble? I wouldn't use bleach cream. You can still see the hair. I remember some girl in middle school had the lightest colored hair ever but she still had a lot of hair on her upper lip. Guys I knew noticed and still made comments about her having a mustache.

its not that big of a deal. my mom shaves her "moustache" too. instead what i did was i shaved it once, then let it grow out a little (i was sick so no one saw the sorta stubble) and then i plucked all the hairs, except for the ones right under my nose in that little dip thingy of your lip, because those really hurt. for those ones i just shave them, and no one notices, and i dont have to pay a crap load of cash

No woman should ever wax. There are plenty of hair removal methods that are available that won't leave you with stubble: Waxing, plucking, threading and depilatories.
