Today, after discussing having our son's hair styled nicely for school, my ex returned him with his head shaved. I didn't realise bald was in style for 4-year-olds. FML

Today, I was napping when my little brother cut off huge chunks of my hair. He thought it would turn me into the older brother he always wanted. He's 8. FML

Today, my son told me he needed a haircut. I was thrilled that he actually requested it, since he normally throws a fit over getting them. He described the cut he wants. It's a mullet. FML

Today, my 7 year old brother decided that it would be fun to cut off my hair. I woke from a long nap after working the late shift, to about 15 inches of my long blonde hair all over my bed and floor. I now have bloody bald spots and really choppy hair about 3 inches long. He got away with it. FML

Today, while my mother-in-law visited, I asked if she wouldn't mind watching my son for 10 minutes as I had run out of baby shampoo. I came back home to see she had shaved his head completely bald. That was his very first haircut. FML

Today, after my son's new friend spent the night, I commented on how his hair had such a straight line in it from one ear to the other. I joked about how he must have fallen asleep with headphones on, or had bad hat hair. He informed me it was a scar from brain surgery he had when he was younger. FML

Today, my 6-year-old son was being charming by smiling and batting his eyelashes at me. When I asked him, "What?" he replied, "When you die, can I have your hair?" FML

Obviously, it wouldn't be a FML if it did look better.

Nice one leaving your kid unattended with scissors, you are lucky it's just your hair you cut...

Re-read the FML. OP was SLEEPING. You're sort of vulnerable when you're asleep. The kid could have woken up in the middle of the night, or earlier than OP did, and then found where the scissors were hidden.

If a 4 year old can access scissors while you sleep, it's shitty parenting. Find a better scissor hidy-place.

96- If it's capable of being found then it's probably not a good place... period.

A four year old is very capable of finding and reaching things. I caught my 3 year old pulling out drawers into a staircase to get to the biscuit tin in the top cupboard.

A four-year-old wielding sharp, metal objects around his mom's face and neck while she is in a deep slumber. What could go wrong? I suggest you not piss off the little pre-murderer before you pass out again.

Kinda why you don't leave scissors where a 4 year old can get to them. FYL completely.

The kid is 4... Not an idiot. Wouldn't be hard.

Well duh kids are extremely smart, my sister learned how to ride a 2 wheeled bike at 3. But what kids are at that age is short. scissors were kept at the top of our fridge until she knew better.

From when I was 18 months old I used to often climb on top of the fridge. I would climb everything I could: burglar bars, furniture, trees... when I have kids anything dangerous is going into a locked cupboard!
