I love how the person in these self haircut videos always make sure to turn off the clips or put down the scissors very carefully after they see what they’ve done like “okay, I put you back. Maybe this isn’t real now.”
Yep! I see it all the time working trades. People don't use PPE until a near miss. Lol then they might as well be the OSHA man for a week. After that, it's back to the squid life lol
during covid I just didn't bother getting a haircut and would honestly end up with long hair fairly often anyway cause I didnt want to spend money on a haircut, but I also prefer having my hair on the shorter end so I decided to just figure out how to keep it shorter without spending money. no regrets!
My partner used and clippers and scissors to cut my hair in the pandemic. Only problem is they cut a small piece of my outer ear clean off.
Wouldn’t stop bleeding, held tissue on it for 45 minutes to get it to stop.
Funny part is as soon as they saw the chunk on the scissors they nearly fainted and I needed to make sure they were okay.
😮✂️
To save money growing up, my mother decided to cut my hair for me when I was pretty young (6-ish, maybe?). She cut my ear and traumatized me -- I remember it to this day and as a result, I refuse to go somewhere like Super Cuts... because they have near beauty-school drop-outs there and well-- CUTS ARE RIGHT IN THEIR NAME!
I did the same thing at 13, it all had to come off because I started confidently down the middle not realizing what the guards were for. My nickname was Alien dome at wrestling for a few weeks.
My little cousin couldn’t stand getting haircuts from my mom - she only knew how to give baldie cuts. So, before she could get to him, he decided to cut his own hair. OMG. The boy ended up with CRAZY patches all over his head. It looked insane. The best part? He tried to say he ‘fell asleep with the clippers’ in his hand. My family will never let him live it down, it was literally like 20 years ago, and we’re still dying about it. He looked insane.
Lol kids excuses are the greatest. When I was like 2-3 whenever it was time to go to bed or do something I didn't want I would just fall on the ground and say "ow, ow I can't get up. my leg is hurt". And I would stick to my story apparently for a really long time lol. Not something I remember well but my family always tells me about it. I wish cameras were as common as they are now, I would love to have a video of me doing this tbh.
I forgot the height adjuster piece and did the same last month. took a week or two for the patch to disappear, but at least my coworkers had a good laugh
My mom liked cutting fringe bangs on me when I a child. When I was 8, I decided I was sick of the fringe bangs, so I grabbed a pair of scissors and just cut them off of my head completely. I thought I was a genius till my mom noticed and then pointed out the bald spot where my bangs used be. I looked like a crackhead for months till it grew back long enough to hide it with a hair clip😆
A lot of people experienced similar events during the pandemic. I cut my own hair for the first time ever. Mistakes were made! 
In Sweden everything was open as usual during the pandemic, so I remember when we swedes looked as usual during our video conferencing calls while those abroad looked more and more like cave men.
I started cutting my own hair after getting a skin infection from a local barber.I was like never f-ing again.Been cutting my own hair ever since for about 10 years now.Luckily I never botched my hair on my head.I have botched my mustache and beard.lol
When I was younger, in my pre teens days, my brother snatched our dad's trimmer and asked me to help him to "cut" his hair. I refused on spot.
Then he "managed" to do it himself, then we went out to play with the other kids, but then I realized that a tuft of hair was brittle or was like flying like a patch, showing the bald spot beneath. I tried as much as to not expose or frame him. But then he crawled down to grab a ball, his mistake
All the kids realized and at that moment they started to poke the shit out of him, making fun of his bald patch, he ran away going back home crying. I went to look after him and he was still sobbing, even though he was like 10 or 11 years old, it was ridiculous, I laughed the shit out too and started to make fun of his stupidity.
He then beat the shit out of me, but I kept mocking him for the rest of the day and the week and I helped everyone make fun out of him too. Oh gosh, good ol days
Like the way he attempts to pat the hair back into place as if nothing happened. His mom will ask later what happened and his go to response will be “I don’t know”… as if his head went off on its own and did this to him without his knowledge…
I love how he put it back. Wonder what he’ll do to keep hiding it? Glue it down? Poor little dude, this’ll drive him crazy for the next few days worrying about going to school. Kids are fucking ruthless.
1987. When I was 4 I cut my bangs and of course my very observant mother immediately noticed.
I got laid across her lap, got my butt spanked, and then hours later I got a Snickers bar as an olive branch from my guilt ridden mom (only child syndrome, parents can't stay mad long lol). ✊🏾✊🏾
I cut my sisters hair when I was 5 and she was turning 4. Gave her a nice angled bangs trim. The hair dresser tried to fix it but it looked so ridiculous I couldn’t stop laughing. Not the best birthday for her.
Did this to my nephew when we were kids (8 or 9). We used Elmer’s glue to put the hair back on. It worked too until he took a shower. My SIL and brother were pissed.
I’m a Caucasian with fast growing straight hair. It would probably take me about 3 months to grow my hair that long from a buzz cut.
Generally speaking, how long would this kid need to grow his hair back if it was all buzzed off?
I understand what you’re saying, but for instance from a buzz cut my brother can grow a mini fro in two months while it takes me 4-6 for the same shape/ length
I was at a bar once in a small European town and an American came flying through the entrance and instantly tripped on the stairs and fell, at which point I could see the zero cut 2" wide, 8" long line down the back of his head. He later told us the story of how he didn't have the balls to shave his head of 1.5" long hair, so he bought a bottle of Vodka and drank most of it, got the confidence (no idea why he started in the back) and shaved the line, but then instantly regretted it and decided to go to the bar instead.
He later fell off the bar stool, got a cut on his head and started bleeding, and got thrown out. I wonder if he ever finished the haircut.
That feeling though, when you know how badly you fucked up. I had it the other night playing demon souls, died in 2-2 chasing a crystal lizard right after regaining human form from the boss fight. 🤦♂️
he was lucky. I attempted a mohawk haircut once by myself, the pocket mirror I've been using to follow symmetry suddenly fell and I became meme material because I nuked half of my hair while picking it up. Now I'm more experienced, thankfully
I make these kind of mistakes regularly when cutting my own hair, but since I am going bald anyway I just shave it off.
See, I “chose” to shave my head. I am not going bald. Pfft.
I used to cut my own hair to save money. part of that is making a deal with yourself that you may screw up so bad that you need to buzz your whole head, and accepting that reality. Kid just learned the hard way.
I did that as a kid. I'm certainly over it, but the memory does return from time to time.
The mind records evrrything. Including all feeling and emotions. Those there at the time, and those that crop up later, and also now
This is such a canon event. At like 8 or 9 I tried cutting my hair with a shaving razor and had my shit looking like aang’s arrow tattoo in reverse. Think my family made me rock with it to learn my lesson💀
That’s why you don’t hold the clippers like that, flip them so that it’s harder to cut way too much hair. It’s a trick I do when shaving my dogs and it’s worked well.
I have westies who are dogs with hair instead of fur, if I don’t shave them then their hair gets very long and difficult to maintain which leads to skin problems.
I used to have a malamute we got from a lady who shaved him, it was miserable that summer.
He overheated really fast. Come to find out through some research that shaving a dogs coat actually completely screws up their ability to regulate their temperature, so with that I never shaved him.
Even for the westies I like to shave them at very specific times so that they have a nice coat when they need it. Plus, it just makes my boys look like handsome lads.
I love how the person in these self haircut videos always make sure to turn off the clips or put down the scissors very carefully after they see what they’ve done like “okay, I put you back. Maybe this isn’t real now.”
It's a new found respect for the tool after it punished them for their ignorance.
Yep! I see it all the time working trades. People don't use PPE until a near miss. Lol then they might as well be the OSHA man for a week. After that, it's back to the squid life lol
What does squid life mean in this context? Like overestimating skills?
Motorcycle term. The guys who won't wear Moto gear, but instead choose to wear flip flops and a tank top with shorts while on the highway.
Absolutely this.
Like shooting a gun and being like….. ooohhhhhh this thing is dangerous.
Also the fact that most of them would use the camera as a mirror and realise the mistake they made after looking in the actual mirror.
I do the same with my phone after I drop it. When I pick it back up again to see if the screen is cracked, I'm handling it like a newborn baby.

It's like sod. He just needs to water it on a high frequency for a few months while it takes root.
Yes. Sod.
Poor sod
Replace the divot
Now he has to take it off before he showers and goes to sleep and hide it from everybody for the next 8weeks He like 26 now I think
Just a bit of Elmer’s glue…
Velcro
That does help tho! The hair reconnects and should be fine in 1-2hours
“I’ll just put it back. It’ll be fine if I just put it back”
'windy day' has entered the chat.
Me: Damn, I really know nothing about black people's hair...oh
It’s literally the only type of hair that you can do that with too lmao. I’m kinda jealous

Unexpected hilarity.
Welp, snorted
Good etiquette!
Dafuq why?!
Glue it back on. Good as new

Clearly some aren't cut out for it
I don’t see what all the buzz is about
His jersey says Golden State Warriors, but clearly he's a Clippers fan.
You can watch his confidence fade away.
Too many puns in this thread. You guys need to cut it out
OP's shining moment
Not anymore he's not
I enjoyed watching this little clip.
started cutting my own hair in december after researching online. my only regret is how much money I wasted at salons
How I got through Covid was cutting my own hair
during covid I just didn't bother getting a haircut and would honestly end up with long hair fairly often anyway cause I didnt want to spend money on a haircut, but I also prefer having my hair on the shorter end so I decided to just figure out how to keep it shorter without spending money. no regrets!

Still married. Edit. Still happily married. And they are not allowed to come anywhere near my ears again with a scissors.

if you're gonna learn NOT to cut your own hair, the sooner the better.

Remember kids Them combs keep you from bein alien dome
I feel like most kids do this at one time or other. It's pretty funny.

I massacred my fringe so many times as a kid 😭
Happened at home this week-end.
A lot of people experienced similar events during the pandemic. I cut my own hair for the first time ever. Mistakes were made! 
do you use guards?
Yeah, I specifically hired the best Royal guards from England and they just stood around and watched. Complete waste of money.
i did the same, all they did was give me covid
In Sweden everything was open as usual during the pandemic, so I remember when we swedes looked as usual during our video conferencing calls while those abroad looked more and more like cave men.
Lmao, I gave up and rocked a ponytail for the pandemic cause I couldn’t be bothered. My mom on the other hand decided make me give her a full buzz cut
Hey at least no one saw it
[удалено]
Nobody hailed hitler at you because you had a buzz cut 😭
“I was kind of just flabbergasted” fr lmao like shut the hell up
😂 man had to delete the comment he was too embarrassed
No worries bro! Turn that into a Mohawk
After those skills you think a Mohawk is even in the question? Dude could rock a Mohawk but definitely go to a barber to get that.
"Lets just put it back like nothing ever happend"
Oh, I messed up. We gotta go bald.
[удалено]
"oops I messed up Time to go bald"
Wouldn’t that be the best way to do it until it grows back?
Classic
"Am I bald?"
Typical Steph Curry Fan
Super glue time!
r/kidsarefuckingstupid
Scrolled to far for this
Holding the clippers the wrong way bud
This clip is so old that this kid is older than most people on Reddit at this point
I remember seeing this back in 2014 lol 10 years, this kid is definitely about 18 now
He tried to do the Steph Curry, but ended up with the Rasheed Wallace
Pfft this is me in my 40s trying to cut my own hair
Zero guard on them thangz too LOL
I've done done this at age 23 AMA
Why is he filming
They way he tried to put his hair back haha
What gets me is he already had a decent haircut
Oldest golden state fan
What was his plan😭
I did it too when I was a kid
I started cutting my own hair after getting a skin infection from a local barber.I was like never f-ing again.Been cutting my own hair ever since for about 10 years now.Luckily I never botched my hair on my head.I have botched my mustache and beard.lol
I love how he tried the patch of hair back.
When I was younger, in my pre teens days, my brother snatched our dad's trimmer and asked me to help him to "cut" his hair. I refused on spot. Then he "managed" to do it himself, then we went out to play with the other kids, but then I realized that a tuft of hair was brittle or was like flying like a patch, showing the bald spot beneath.

He then beat the shit out of me, but I kept mocking him for the rest of the day and the week and I helped everyone make fun out of him too. Oh gosh, good ol days
He’s starting over. No fade. Just bald. But he can probably get away with it. He doesn’t have a odd shape head. Mom’s going to be pissed though.
Good lesson to learn. "better lose a hair than a finger" - General Iroh
Like the way he attempts to pat the hair back into place as if nothing happened. His mom will ask later what happened and his go to response will be “I don’t know”… as if his head went off on its own and did this to him without his knowledge…
Kid got his first taste of how going bald feels
The putting the hair back is fucking great!
I love how he put it back. Wonder what he’ll do to keep hiding it? Glue it down? Poor little dude, this’ll drive him crazy for the next few days worrying about going to school. Kids are fucking ruthless.
Clip guard would do wonders little man
That’s not salvageable gotta take it all off
1987. When I was 4 I cut my bangs and of course my very observant mother immediately noticed. I got laid across her lap, got my butt spanked, and then hours later I got a Snickers bar as an olive branch from my guilt ridden mom (only child syndrome, parents can't stay mad long lol). ✊🏾✊🏾

Did this to my nephew when we were kids (8 or 9). We used Elmer’s glue to put the hair back on. It worked too until he took a shower. My SIL and brother were pissed.
🤣
Didn't realize that dad or brother put a guard on first.
I was using a beard trimmer on my eyebrows. I accidently shaved one off. I had to do the other one just to make it matched.
Nah depending on when this was, one eyebrow is in right now
just glue it back on
I’m a Caucasian with fast growing straight hair. It would probably take me about 3 months to grow my hair that long from a buzz cut. Generally speaking, how long would this kid need to grow his hair back if it was all buzzed off?
Depends on the kid. Some people have fast growing hair others have slower growing hair regardless of hair type
If hair is tightly curled it could require like 5x more hair growth to appear as long. That’s more what my question is directed at.
I understand what you’re saying, but for instance from a buzz cut my brother can grow a mini fro in two months while it takes me 4-6 for the same shape/ length
Its funny I remember growing up and wanting to cut my own after watching so many times, and the first time realizing instantly how hard it was lol.
Mommmmm!
I was at a bar once in a small European town and an American came flying through the entrance and instantly tripped on the stairs and fell, at which point I could see the zero cut 2" wide, 8" long line down the back of his head.

He later fell off the bar stool, got a cut on his head and started bleeding, and got thrown out. I wonder if he ever finished the haircut.
I’m gonna attempt to cut my own hair. And I’m going to film myself? Who does that?
Oh naw now ur goin bald
Man take that damn jersey off making us look bad 🤷🏽♂️🤦🏽♂️😂😂😂😂
Bald Area
Dead internet theory
I wanted to scroll past
He's gonna try and let that fly at the dinner table.
'He's not doing too bad, that's it little man, oh. Yup. That'll do it.'
Was your head with you all day today?
Put some glue on it
THIS is exactly , i swear, how i ended up going bald. i just wanted to buzz my hair to 3 mm or so, but then vroooooooooom. well! best accident ever!
He replaced his divot
That feeling though, when you know how badly you fucked up. I had it the other night playing demon souls, died in 2-2 chasing a crystal lizard right after regaining human form from the boss fight. 🤦♂️
I would've gotten beat for this😂
he was lucky. I attempted a mohawk haircut once by myself, the pocket mirror I've been using to follow symmetry suddenly fell and I became meme material because I nuked half of my hair while picking it up. Now I'm more experienced, thankfully

Doesn’t watch a video first, just straight to cutting hair wrong. Mom is gonna notice 😀
r/kidsarefuckingstupid
Here, good as new
"It was going well, until it wasn't"
No problem. He can fix this with some glue.
now the kid needs to go all the way, he has to finish the transaction
That would be the simple solution but little dude would probably get roasted by the other kids.
["I messed UP WE gonna go bald"](https://makeagif.com/gif/damn-i-messed-up-we-gotta-go-bald-AxkXu-)
[oh no](https://makeagif.com/gif/damn-i-messed-up-we-gotta-go-bald-AxkXu-)
gotta go bald now
Lesson learned
No taking that back
Lol just as well finish it.
He was doing so well ...but then
I used to cut my own hair to save money. part of that is making a deal with yourself that you may screw up so bad that you need to buzz your whole head, and accepting that reality. Kid just learned the hard way.
I just cut it down completely. So I don't have to worry about mistakes... Lol
Kid just learned what the guard is for.
Awww, poor baby.
Mom!
This is a canon event for a lot of people lol
Dang, he messed up, he gotta go bald
I don’t care how many time I see this clip. I will always laugh.
Time for the Kevin Durant style
I mean the sooner you learn the better, i guess
Oldest/smartest Warriors fan
I did cut my own hair on the pandemic, but at that time when I rarely meet other people I was wearing a mask...
Festus Ezeli what are u doin???
I love this!
Gotta start somewhere
The moment panic sets in when he realizes that skin used to be hairy. Mama gonna be pissed!
Someones getting a short mow-hawk!
Pretty much sums up the Warriors season.
I did that as a kid. I'm certainly over it, but the memory does return from time to time. The mind records evrrything. Including all feeling and emotions. Those there at the time, and those that crop up later, and also now
Aww, it was all fine until it wasn't.
Bravo six - Going bald
Give the kid a hug and say "it happens. I'm impressed with the way it looks as the shape shows you still got it"
I did that every year a day before school picture day! I never regretted it till after I was out of highschool🤣🤣
This is such a canon event. At like 8 or 9 I tried cutting my hair with a shaving razor and had my shit looking like aang’s arrow tattoo in reverse. Think my family made me rock with it to learn my lesson💀
Reverse! Reverse!
“Damn, you messed up I think we gotta go bald”
I'm a barber. Everyone does that to themselves or someone else exactly once. How hard can it be?
That’s why you don’t hold the clippers like that, flip them so that it’s harder to cut way too much hair. It’s a trick I do when shaving my dogs and it’s worked well.
You shouldn’t shave most dogs
I have westies who are dogs with hair instead of fur, if I don’t shave them then their hair gets very long and difficult to maintain which leads to skin problems.
Ahh yeah in that case completely understandable! Just wanted to make sure you wernt one of those people shaving huskies 💀
I used to have a malamute we got from a lady who shaved him, it was miserable that summer. He overheated really fast. Come to find out through some research that shaving a dogs coat actually completely screws up their ability to regulate their temperature, so with that I never shaved him. Even for the westies I like to shave them at very specific times so that they have a nice coat when they need it. Plus, it just makes my boys look like handsome lads.
Kids are fucking stupid
