Viraldice: People Are Sharing Horrific Stories of the Times They Tried to Cut Their Own Hair…and Failed Miserably

TOP! Put down the scissors. Trust me — it's not a good idea. We've all been there before, but save yourself the trouble and just go pay someone who knows what they're doing to cut your hair. It'll be worth it.

If I can't convince you, then maybe Twitter can.

Save yourself from having to hide in your house for at least a week.

if you see me in the next week or two yes I did cut my own fringe and no I wasn't paying much attention at the time

I mean, most of us want to hide inside for a week, but on our own terms. Not forced by bad bangs.

The best case scenario here is that you look like Zack Galifianakis.

Which could be worse, but probably not the look you’re going for.

Galifianakis looks like Kenny Loggins here. Danger zone!

Sophia was smart enough to stop herself.

Last night I had 3 glasses of wine and almost CUT MY OWN BANGS!Next time I drink I'm hiding the scissors from my self

Even Drunk Sophia was able to hold back the urge. If she can do it so can you.

Not everyone is able to resist the temptation of cutting their own bangs though.

Me: *walks into my mums room*
Me: "I just cut my own fringe"
Mum: *spits water out everywhere*

If your own mother laughs that is a very bad sign. Time to shave it off.

There is no positive outcome from it.

You’ll either look like this old woman or get looked at like her. Not sure which is worse.

Take these firsthand accounts into consideration.
