Today, my 4-year-old son cut half of my hair when I was asleep because he thought I would look better that way. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, my four-year-old daughter thought it'd be funny to cut my hair while I was sleeping. 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
Today, my 8 year old son cut his own hair. He did a better job than I ever did. I'm a hairdresser. FML
Today, I was napping when my little brother cut off huge chunks of my hair. He thought it would turn me into the older brother he always wanted. He's 8. FML
Today, my son told me he needed a haircut. I was thrilled that he actually requested it, since he normally throws a fit over getting them. He described the cut he wants. It's a mullet. FML
Today, my 7 year old brother decided that it would be fun to cut off my hair. I woke from a long nap after working the late shift, to about 15 inches of my long blonde hair all over my bed and floor. I now have bloody bald spots and really choppy hair about 3 inches long. He got away with it. FML
Today, I woke up to the sound of scissors. My mom was cutting my hair while I was asleep. 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, after my son's new friend spent the night, I commented on how his hair had such a straight line in it from one ear to the other. I joked about how he must have fallen asleep with headphones on, or had bad hat hair. He informed me it was a scar from brain surgery he had when he was younger. FML
Today, my 6-year-old son was being charming by smiling and batting his eyelashes at me. When I asked him, "What?" he replied, "When you die, can I have your hair?" FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

Kids these days xD
biggestfan23 11
You can't even really be mad at him. At that age there too innocent

I don't think this one is just kids these days- a friend of mine cut her grandma's hair as a kid when she was playing "stylist".. and she's nearly 21 now. So it's just ...kids ;)

#1, it's nothing new with today's kids. Ever heard of Lizzie Borden?

20- at the age of 4, with proper parenting, they should know the difference between right and wrong. Such as...don't chop off half of mommy's hair.
AussieChild 22
Sounds like a naughty kid! Hope your son's cute; makes it easier to forgive :P
buck33 14
It seems to me that the 4 year old was trying to do something nice. He didn't understand that his parent wouldnt want him to do that. It's probably not a problem with parenting or anything, just a 4 year olds undeveloped judgment.

Normal behavior. When I was three, I ucut my own hair. I made my mother cry because it was so bad.

#38 Are we really sure op is the mother?

68-I think it's safe to assume so. Not many guys fret about their hair too much.
yahoowizard 16
Haha, I don't think that is a generational thing. I imagine kids of olden days doing these things too

77- I once accidentally spilled Gatorade in a guys' hair and he threatened to egg my house in return.... so, it's possible!
Codezlol 21
83- That's hilarious who threatens to egg someones house rofl, it seems like more of just a spontaneous thing. I would have been like "ok I'll be waiting with my paintball gun I guarantee you're not leaving happy" lol

He was caring about you.

Why grow it back? Maybe OP really does look better like that.

I LOOOOOOVE hide and seek!
borkchop1992 15
He's gotta practice somewhere so be more supportful.
borkchop1992 15
Im sorry about my poor use of sarcasm.
iiAntheA17 7
I don't think 'supportful' is a word hun'.
guy24 9
Yes it is a word...
99megster 15
10- why the hell are you calling him "hun" when he is two years older than you?
iiAntheA17 7
10- 1) I call EVERYONE that. 2) Why do you care?
eggmarie 25
Regardless of if it's a word or not, the word he was looking for was "supportive"
iiAntheA17 7
74- Yes. That's the point. Let's keep on that instead of why I call everyone hun' (:
Desfar 5
You need to have him come back and finish the job, at least. Teach him not to leave things half finished!
99megster 15
Yeah, cut the other half off and donate it all to cancer :)
iiAntheA17 7
Maybe he'll be a hairstylist when he grows up! (: He's just setting a future OP!

It works even better with your picture.

I hope your son is Edward Scissorhands.

OP could just pull a Brittney and shave off her whole head. Then there wouldn't be an 'oops I did it again' scenario.
kimg0885 23
Why were scissors out for him to do that? For that same reason my kid only gets those safety scissors that cut ONLY paper; don't want to wake up with a less than fashionable mullet one morning. You should invest in a pair. New scissors = $3 Haircut = $60 ( if your lucky)
Bullpine 11
Those safety scissors cut hair. I cut mine with them when I was a toddler.
Inheritance 10
I can cut anything with safety scissors; and 60$ for a haircut? That sounds a bit dramatic.
BubbleGrunge 18
I was a preschool teacher for eight years and you would be surprised at what safety scissors can actually cut. I've had my share of cut hair, cuts on skin and one very gruesome act of a child cutting their peanut butter and jelly sandwich. All of which was cut without any problems because they were "safety scissors"
AClassActx3 7
Actually no. Haircuts are expensive. It especially depends on where you live.
kimg0885 23
Wow everyone; no need to jump down my throat about safety scissors. It was just a suggestion. When I bought my daughter her scissors that same thought of her cutting her hair ran through my mind,so I tried them on my hair and it didn't cut it! And if all else fails just hide the damn scissors! And as for sixty dollar haircut , that is very plausible for a decent cut, especially in my area.
nevershoutkendal_fml 11
You must have some indestructible hair. I remember being in elementary school and just hacking away at my split ends in class. Safety scissors cut a lot of things. Hair is one of them.
kimg0885 23
Ok guys in light of this debate I literally just took out my child's safety scissors and tried to cut my hair, I didn't work, not even when I tried it on a single strand. It just kinda crimped it. I do have very thick hair though. I believe I purchased them at target in case anyone was curious .
jamalamadingdong 18
I was thinking the same thing 13. And regardless of what kind of scissors they are, why was your four year old playing with scissors while you were sleeping OP? I'd say you're lucky it was only your hair that was cut!
kimg0885 23
# 113 so I noticed your a guy... So no girls don't go to barber shops and any place that does charge $20 including tip for a girls haircut may be a place that you should think twice about going to. I say this from experience. Cheaper doesn't always equal better.
lowie89 7
Where I live (Cali) haircuts range from $15-25 for women depending on the place. And maybe an extra $10 if you want it styled or want them to blow dry it. $60 sounds really high
ElmoSaysSquishy 28
116, I live in Scotland and I pay £20 for a cut and blow dry, that converts to about $30 I think. My hair is always done well.
OMCheezbread 9
Last time I got my hair cut it cost $17. And that was for the cut, bang trim, blow dry, and straightening. And it turned out perfect. You just have to find the right place.
devandanae 11
I charge 20 for a cut and Style
SobrietyKills 14
I have never paid $60 for a haircut, to me that just seems absurdly expensive. The most I've ever paid for a haircut is maybe $25 at the most and my hair comes out just how I want it.
Zassie 5
I guess this all depends on which safety scissors are bing used there's two different kinds the solid hard plastic that only cut paper or the plastic ones with a metal blade...
