Today, my barber repeatedly threatened to stab me with scissors while I was getting my hair cut. FML

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

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

Not the barber on Penny Lane, then
Today, I told my barber, “You cut my hair perfectly this time!” He frowned and said, “This is the first time I’ve cut your hair. Who’s been screwing it up for you?” It’s been him, for the last two years. FML

Today, at the hairdresser's, I fell asleep while my hair was being washed. My barber had to shake me awake. FML

NO SLEEPING ALLOWED
Today, I fell asleep on the barber's chair so many times that he got mad and "accidentally" sprayed water on my face. FML

Today, I went to get a haircut. Who shows up not 5 minutes later to also get a haircut? My obnoxious, bully of a boss. She started chatting with me across the salon the entire time. There was no way to get out of the conversation. FML

Gross prank, dude
Today, I caught my stylist in the mirror attempting to get his colleague to laugh by spitting on my head while washing my hair. FML

Today, I got a haircut. The guy quickly cut off most of the hair above my forehead. When I angrily asked him what he was doing, he said, "Quitting." 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

Is this some sort of "50 Shades of Grey" B&D kinky barber shop? Otherwise, this sounds like a bad business model. Are you moving around when he tells you to sit still?

B&D? I'd say its more the S&M part of that, unless op was tied up too. :p

It's the best buisness model! Cut bitches, get money!

This is why its not worth saving a couple bucks to get your hair cut for free at the nearest prison!

My barber always does that, it's pretty normal.

The place I go to most defiantly does not do that. If they did I wouldn't go back.

Did he do this with all customers or just you? I would definitely change barbers, unless he just has a peculiar sense of humour and wasn't actually threatening.

From my experiences at hair salons, I just imagine some friendly, plump woman gossiping with her coworkers and interrupting her conversation with a "boy, I'm going to stab you if you don't sit still" in a joking kind of way. Still, an odd thing to say. And if she didn't sound like she was joking, I would have gotten up from the chair and told the manager I wanted someone else to finish the cut because his employee made me fear for my life. lol

Wow. That is seriously scary. If I were you, I would never be able to face a barber ever again.

Either a) you were restless and moving around in your seat, which any barber would hate; b) odd sense of humor; or c) I recommend you run, FAST!

I don't really think I would take it seriously. Many people go to the same barber/stylist for years and you tend to develop a relationship with them where they feel comfortable enough to joke about things like that when getting you to sit still. I go to my sister and she says wayy worse things when getting annoyed with me.
