Ended up taking a huge chunk out the side of her head. It was a massacre. There were tears and panic attacks, it was pretty full on and sucked to see her so upset.

I did the deed, my daughter told her she looks bad-ass, like Ripley and she’s finally come around to how great she looks with a shaved heid.

Anyone got any horror haircut stories I can use to cheer her up? Cheers!

    Once, when I was living in lovely Leamington Spa, I went for a haircut at a new (to me) place. No exaggeration, the guy looked like Abu Hamza’s twin… fortunately for me, he had actual hands instead of hooks. Unfortunately for me, he (like Mr. Hamza) was obviously blind in one eye. This lead to several shenanigens like: “Sorry, could you just get this bit of hair at the front you missed?” then him carefully snipping a different bit of hair.

    After a few attempts getting him to correct missed snips only resulted in further mishap, I gave up and submitted to what I was sure would be less of a hairdo, and more of a hairdon’t. The funniest part for me was, after I paid and he went to drop my change into my palm… completely missing my hand, confirming he had no depth perception at all.

    Not even the worst haircut I’ve had, either!
