"I was getting my eyebrows waxed and as she was tweezing the last few stragglers she sneezed ... in my face ... and the tweezers went through the top of my eyelid. Then she proceeded to charge me £15 whilst I held some bloodied cotton wool up to my eye. Luckily, her boss was mortified and compensated me instead of charging me." -- boochix via Reddit

"When I was younger, I was applying fake nails. At one point I was trying to unclog the nail glue tube ... and accidentally glued my eye shut. I had to go to the emergency room and wear an eye patch for a week. Sooo embarrassing!" -- Candace Perkins on the Total Beauty Facebook page

"Ok, I just want a trim!

"In seventh grade, I had lots of fluffy little baby hairs, so I couldn't pull my hair back in a ponytail without looking like I had wispy '80s bangs. I had a brilliant idea one day, and decided to use chemical hair remover on my forehead! It burned my scalp and I now have a reverse widow's peak because my hair won't grow back there anymore." -- hbenv via Reddit

"It was right before my senior year of high school began. I wanted nothing more than to have beautiful, golden beachy waves. So I went to my stylist and asked for a loose perm. She said, "Okay, but your hair will be a little more damaged than it normally is after bleaching it!" Naively, I agreed to it."

"My stylist didn't tell me, however, that perming bleached hair is literally the worst thing you could ever do to your locks. When it was done, it looked like ramen noodles, kind of like Justin Timberlake's hair way back when. When I showered, it would break off in my hand, and it felt like very, very weak elastic. I had spent about two years growing boob-length hair, and it was ruined in an instant. So, right before school started, I had to chop it all off. What remained was a fried, frizzy, brittle bob, which, by the way, did not suit my face shape at all. I had that bob in all of my pictures from my senior year." -- tarogers24 via Reddit
