Today, I went to get my hair done. The hairdresser managed to catch my eyebrow piercing in his comb and almost rip it out. I now look like I have a gunshot wound on the upper right hand side of my face. I'm getting married in a matter of hours, and I still had to pay £100 for the hair cut. FML

Today, I went to the hair salon to get a fresh trim before receiving my master's diploma. The hairdresser managed to shave off half my eyebrow. FML

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

Today, I had my eyebrows waxed for my senior pictures. After manhandling me, the cosmetologist managed to "accidentally" take my whole eyebrow off. It looks like I'll be remembered forevermore as the girl with one eyebrow. FML

Today, I fell and got a nasty cut above my right eye. The doctor in the ER sealed the wound with surgical glue. He also glued his glove to my eyebrow, and let glue run onto my eyelid. Not only do I have a scar and medical bill, I now have no eyebrow or eyelashes on my right eye. FML

First impressions

Today, I'm going to an event where I will be meeting quite a few people who will be excellent contacts in my future career. Since I wanted to make a good impression, I did the whole makeup and grooming thing before setting out. I accidentally removed about half my left eyebrow. FML

Today, I got my hair trimmed to look fresh for my sister's wedding this week. The woman messed up so badly that the manager had to step in and fix it. I lost 8 inches of hair and my dad keeps telling me I look like a medieval stable boy. FML

Today, I shaved off half of my right eyebrow by accident. It still looks better than my left eyebrow. 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 had a spur of the moment idea to go have my nose pierced. The piercer made sure to tell me how easily the little stud could get caught or hung up. I spent all day stressing over it only to scratch my nose and rip it out. Now I have a $40 bleeding hole in my nose. FML

Makeup? Or see if you could comb your hair over it?

Maybe you shouldn't have had a piercing.

Been there done that I can't say much cause it has been done before by me and its even possible with towels...to cover it up use concealer and put foundation on it it won't be noticeable.

I knew that the second I read "piercing" this would turn into "YOU SHOULDN'T HAVE PIERCINGS OMG", "IF GOD WANTED A HOLE THERE HE WOULD'VE PUT ONE THERE", "OMG WHY WOULD YOU GET A PIERCING". Don't push your lifestyle onto others; different people have different tastes. Hopefully you managed to hide the wound with bangs or make up, but if not there's always photoshop. Hope the day wasn't ruined.

You're all inconsiderate. Everyone makes mistakes. Just because a comb grabbed onto a piercing doesn't mean the cosmetologist is incompetent. Try being one and putting up with the public who thinks they know evwrything about hair and how it is apparently so easy. Y.D.I.

incompetence is not the issue. The hairdresser made a mistake and messed up the job they were supposed to do for OP. This is not about their level of expertise. OP shouldn't have to pay if the service she required wasn't properly carried out.
