Today, I went to pick up my daughter from my dad's house. He'd shaved her head bald. "For a laugh." FML

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

Today, my dad came up behind me with a pair of scissors, and pretended to snip away at my hair. I was sure he was joking, so I just sat there and didn't react. Later, I felt the back of my head and looked at my hand. Suffice it to say, I now have a large bald patch on the back of my head. FML

Today, I asked my dad to give me a haircut. After 20 minutes of "fuck"s and "shit"s, he gave up and just shaved my head bald. I pull off the look so badly that two people I don't even know have already told me I look like a psychopath. FML

Today, while my mother-in-law visited, I asked if she wouldn't mind watching my son for 10 minutes as I had run out of baby shampoo. I came back home to see she had shaved his head completely bald. That was his very first haircut. FML

Today, I got my long hair cut in a short pixie cut. When my five year old daughter saw me she laughed and proclaimed 'You look just like a man!'. That afternoon I got a concerned call from the school. My daughter has told everyone 'mummy has gone away, I now have two daddies!' FML

Today, after discussing having our son's hair styled nicely for school, my ex returned him with his head shaved. I didn't realise bald was in style for 4-year-olds. FML

How thoughtful
Today, my dad decided to shave his beard. I told him I wanted him to keep it, so he took the shavings, put them in a jar, and left it in my room. FML

Today, I arrived home, having just had my long hair cut and my beard shaved. My idiot daughter’s reaction when she saw me? “Who are you and how did you get in the house?” FML

Today, my father cut my hair for the first time. Now, I always have to wear a cap when I go outside. FML

Manic pixie dream girl
Today, I took my daughter to get the expensive pixie cut she’s been "dying" for. As soon as we got home, my husband burst into hysterical laughter and pointed out that she looks exactly like he did in high school. Now she’s sobbing and begging for either a wig or even more expensive extensions. FML

Kick him in the nuts "for a laugh".

While he shouldn't have done that without your consent/her consent (depending on her age), it's not like this is the end of the world. Make sure she knows she's still beautiful no matter what. (Which I'm sure you do anyway)

I think I would rather experience some temporary pain than have my head shaved and have to spend months and months regrowing it...

If this was a April fools prank, then no. This is just too much, to be "just a prank bro"... and no, just no.

While that is true, you don't alter a child without the parents consent.

Consent to Looking after a child is not consent to let them do anything they want with them. That's like saying consent to looking after my house while I'm away is consent to completely remodeling it.

...I said he shouldn't have done it without her consent so I don't understand why you literally said what I already said. Anyway, what's done is done so the only thing she can do is make the best of the situation and make sure her daughter feels ok with it until her hair can grow back

I honestly can't believe you said that. Depending on the age of the girl it can feel like the end of the world for a time and regardless, how dare he physically alter her child!!! Who says 'what's done is done' after something like that?!? Completely absurd.

It could be worse... she could be hit by a roller coaster.

That comment couldn't be worse. Huh....

Or she could watch a comedy with Ben stiller, but that is too much punishment for any one person to handle.

My husband shaved his head and it permanently changed the way his hair grew in. Unless you are the parent this is NOT ok

He sounds like a very immature person. I'd be very hesitant to trust him with a child again.

Maybe shave his head bald "for a laugh"

Great idea! He might be bald already though, lol.
