Today, after a haircut, I walked to the cash register, handed the hairdresser a $20 bill and said, "Keep the change." He looked at me with a blank expression and replied, "The haircut costs 25 dollars." FML

Today, I got a haircut, and after thanking the stylist I went up front to pay. The lady behind the counter took one look at me, smiled, and said, "Well, now you'll need a hat." FML

Bad choice

Today, I went to a different hairdresser than usual to get 5 inches off my hair and bangs. He ended up charging me half price, saying, "Don't worry, we all make mistakes." FML

Today, I paid $50 on a haircut. Halfway through, I realized the hair dresser was drunk. FML

Today, I went to go get a haircut and I asked how much it was for a haircut, shampoo, and a blow job. I meant to say blow dry. FML

Today, I went to the hairdresser on a spur of the moment decision to get a quick wash and cut. Forty-five painful minutes and $180 later, I honestly don't know if anything was actually done to my hair. FML

Today, I went to my hair dresser to get my haircut. When she asked me what I wanted, I told her "the usual". She confused me with another customer and gave me a mullet. FML

Assumptions

Today, I went to get a haircut. The hairdresser at the counter was kind of cute, so I had to say something non-standard. When she greeted me with her hello, I replied, "Guess what I need from you today?" She looked at me, considered, and replied, "An eyebrow wax?" FML

Today, my 19-year-old daughter got a haircut. When I asked her if she tipped the hairdresser, she looked at me in horror and asked, "You’re supposed to tip hairdressers?" FML

Today, I was working at Tim Hortons. A lady was in line, and she couldnt make up her mind. 20 minutes later she finally decided to get something, and she reached in her pocket. I was hoping it was a tip, but she gave me a coupon for a haircut. FML

Today, a lady handed me a $10 tip on a $45 bill. I was happy with it, since it was more than 20%, until she came back in and said, "I'm sorry I gave you the wrong amount." I handed it back to her and then she gave me a dollar. FML

Still not quite sure why this is an FML, oh well, little shit like this happens. Maybe next time check the price before sitting down in the chair? Hope the haircut was worth it :)

Apparently hairdresser vs barber means, "Holy shit! That costed me twice as much for the exact same fade!"

Yup, and a hairdresser just stares at you if you ask them for a shave and shape. Barber shops are a great thing for men, but too many of us think they are just hairdressers for men.

I joke that barber shops are a poorer man's night club. One that they all gather around to hang out and talk b.s.(: There's a place near my house that a guy can get a fade and shave (with hot towels on your face) for only $12! My guy gets his cut at least once every 3 to 4 weeks so it can add up price wise over time.

#27, you should definitely avoid a "stylist" and a "tonsorial artiste." And if you encounter an "image consultant," run away!!!

No offense but you should have asked the price of a cut before getting it. And seriously, expecting to pay $20 (tip included) for a haircut these days? LMAO!
