Today, while getting my hair done, I was annoyed that the beautician was not paying attention while straightening my hair. After asking her three times to watch what she was doing, I grabbed the iron and said "let me do it, you're going to burn me!". I then burned two layers of skin off my ear. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I got my hair dyed at a fancy salon. While the stylist was pulling out the foils in my hair I sat up and started screaming in pain because the hot foils were burning my scalp. All she said was "oh, you're fine". I went back home to find an oozing burn wound on my scalp. FML
Today, I used my hair straightener to attempt to straighten my eyelashes and burned my eyelid. I don't know what's sadder, that fact I thought it would be fun, or that I was stupid enough to think I wouldn't hurt myself. FML
Today, I burned my tongue. With a flat iron. FML
Today, I was reading a magazine while straightening my hair. I got really into this one article until suddenly a huge clump of hair fell on it. I looked up and realized I had burned through the layer of hair I was straightening, leaving me with one layer at ear length and the rest at bra length. 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, after spending a week detangling my hair (It took a week because my hands have nerve issues) because it felt like my scalp was glued to my scalp from not being taken care of, I cut it all off. My hair got tangled in the device twice and eventually revealed a burn on my scalp. FML
Today, I was straightening my hair when I heard this crunching, sizzling sound. Taking the flat iron away, I realized that I had just fused a spider to my hair with the heat. FML
Today, I got burned, all because the toaster scared me while I was holding a pot of boiling water. FML
Today, I was using my new curling iron to curl my hair. I was sitting down. Suddenly I dropped the iron and, as a reflex, I caught it between my bare thighs. FML
Today, I burned myself while cooking, so I asked my mom to get the burn cream while I waited in the kitchen. While I was waiting, I absentmindedly set my hand on the hot stove, earning myself a second burn. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

How much attention does it require to hold something and slowly pull down?

What's the point of going to a salon if you're just going to take over the job of the hairdresser? I can see why you'd be annoyed if she wasn't paying attention, but you really didn't need to be a brat about it. I'd say you deserved it, but no one deserves to have two layers of skin burned off their ear. :c

1. You should upgrade salons to a place where you receive your demanding attention. 2. I hope your ear recovers. That is karma for you.

As #25 said. Another term for Straightener is Flat Iron. And that's for Americans too. :D As a Cosmetologist I'd be pretty pissed if a client grabbed one of my tools. Those things can be really expensive, the OP is lucky she didn't drop it. I can understand being concerned if the person working on your hair appears to be less than attentive, but if she hadn't burned you by then, chances are she wasn't going to at all. And if you honestly felt that you HAD to be so freaking anal and do it your way (because you clearly know everything), then you could have politely told her that you changed your mind. That way, you would have been less of a whiny bitch. ...And perhaps you would have been able to keep the skin on your ear as well. Bottom line, I am in agreement with the general crowd. YDI.

Wow . I'm pretty sure that you can't do better than a person who does hair FOR A LIVING. She knew what she was doing, you were just being a paranoid bitch about it. I hope your ear hurt hella bad.
