Today, I went to the hairdresser for the first time in the country I just moved to. Guess I don't speak the language as well as I thought. FML

So I guess your language skills just aren't cutting it, huh?

Well, you know they say... Deutsche Sprache, Schwere Sprache.

And another Es ist noch kein Meister von Himmel gefallen.

Very, very hard... I've been taking German daily for almost 6 months now and still get the 5 W's & 1 H mixed up.. Except for wo. At least some German words are similar sounding to English words, and some even the exact same words, it's just conjugating that's a pain in the ass.

Do you look like miley Cyrus now? cause that would suck.

I am thoroughly convinced that all hairdressers in the world suck. It's not you OP!

Nope. I LOVE my hairdresser! I never leave her chair thinking anything less than how much I love my haircut. 4 or 5 months since my last cut and people still stop me to tell me how great my hair looks and ask if I've recently had it done. You get what you pay for. Never cut costs when it comes to your haircut.

I feel your frustration, only I was in America & the woman only spoke Spanish!

Well at you'll learn quickly now! The ol' "trial by fire" approach...

Am I the only who didn't understand this FML? OP you mean first time in days or weeks? Or why is this a big deal?

Yes, you probably are. OP just moved to a new country, so they meant the first time ever in that country.

Op explained the hair style she wanted in a language she didn't know a lot about and as a result got a bad haircut.

make the hair short. women with short hair look sexyyy. ;)

To be fair, some of us English-speakers don't know hair fashion lingo so we'd probably end up with a terrible haircut too. Normally I bring pictures just in case. :)
