It’s not just about trimming those tresses but also considering your unique face shape, hair texture, and personal flair to find that killer cut that suits you best. Both women and men report having a bad day when they see their hair behaving out of character. So we can’t understand how some people take a chance and play hair roulette with their crowning glory.

Were they hoping to stand out from the crowd, or was it an innocent mistake of entrusting their self-esteem with the wrong hairstylist? Whatever the reason, the internet is awash with these funny pictures of people having a bad hair day, whether they know about it or not. These photos are a great reminder to always tip your hairstylist well (especially the ones who know how to work their magic on your mane).

This guy was clearly marching to the beat of his own drum. He wanted to prioritize his own personal style instead of enhancing his natural features. And look where that got him. His hair looks like paddleboards hanging off his scalp.

Be the Adult

As parents or guardians, giving in to our children’s every whim and desire can be tempting, especially when they ask for something with great enthusiasm or persistence. But as much as we love to make them happy, we must also remember that sometimes it’s our job to make rational decisions on their behalf.

Constantly indulging children’s whims can also encourage impulsive behavior. Just look at this kid who had an indulgent parent caving into his wish. You can clearly see the regret written all over his face. But at least he can’t blame his bad decision on his parent.

Gotta Be One of Us

Throughout history, hair has always been a symbol of beauty, power, and social status. From ancient times to the present day, our hair has played a crucial role in our cultural and personal identities. Let’s face it; no one likes to be known as the bald guy at a wedding.

Worse, the only balding aunt. So this woman went to a stylist to have slick hair pasted over her scalp. She must have been joyous after seeing a gooey clump of hair on her head. Just look at that beaming smile.

Power Play

The love-hate relationship between women and their voluminous hair has been around forever! For some ladies, it’s a never-ending battle to achieve the perfect volume, spending hours teasing, curling, and spraying their hair. But for others, it’s all about taming their naturally wild and voluminous locks.

Styling voluminous hair can be a workout in itself. Between the arm workout from blow-drying and the finger workout from teasing, it’s no wonder some women have biceps like bodybuilders. This probably explains why this woman asked that her picture be taken from the shoulders up; she didn’t want to show off her bulging guns!

Rock n’ Roll

Hair is often seen as a symbol of beauty, youth, and vitality, but losing it can be a traumatic experience, whether it’s due to genetics, illness, or other factors. However, going bald isn’t always a bad thing. For some folks, it can be a liberating and empowering experience!

After years of fighting his balding scalp, this man finally surrendered and joined the bald brigade. He’s now a proud member of the “less hair, more air” club and loves experimenting with different shavings to attach to his head. For this photoshoot, he channeled his inner shark with some impressive gill-inspired designs.

Origami Art

Avant-garde fashion is not for the faint of heart. It’s a type of fashion that’s bold, unconventional and pushes the boundaries of what’s considered “normal” in the fashion world. If you’re looking for something safe and traditional, this is definitely not your fashion.

Armed with bobby pins, hairspray, and a lot of creativity, this woman spent hours carefully folding and twisting her locks into intricate shapes and angles to achieve the look of an unfolded origami box. It was a true masterpiece, and definitely, not a hairstyle you see every day!

Natural Beauty

She had a moment of weakness and trusted her hair in the hands of this hairstylist. When she finally saw the result, she couldn’t help but close her eyes and wish she had gone to a different hairstylist instead. Her hair looked like it had been attacked by a pair of scissors wielding toddlers.

Warrior-esque

Hairstyles vary widely across different cultures, and it is fascinating to see how different countries have shaped the way we wear our hair. While some may credit culture for their unique hair preferences, others may just have questionable fashion sense.

It takes a man with a warrior spirit to shave his head except for a single long hair braid. In ancient times, it was reserved for those who could prove their bravery in battle. But nowadays, the constant battle with the self is enough reason to get a warrior’s braid.

Those Who Embrace It

Male pattern balding can be a challenging experience for many men, as it can affect their self-confidence and self-esteem. While some men try to cover up their balding with hats or creative hairstyles, some brave few choose to embrace it and rock the bald look with confidence.

Like Brothers

Despite their apparent differences, men and animals have some striking similarities. For one, both have a hierarchy or social structure within their groups, meaning that the alpha male isn’t just a concept in the animal kingdom. Additionally, both men and animals are capable of experiencing a range of emotions and have unique preferences.

Seizing Power

Rebellion is often associated with youth, with teenagers and young adults pushing against societal norms and authority figures in their quest for independence and self-discovery. However, some people never outgrow their inner rebel and continue challenging the norms and authority figures into adulthood.

Rebels may be outspoken, unconventional, and unafraid to take risks. Like this guy, he’s unapologetically rocking a kindergartener’s hairdo, embracing his inner child and showing the world that you’re never too old to have fun with your hair. He refuses to let age define his style choices.

Date Night

In recent years, a faded haircut has become one of men’s most popular and versatile hairstyles. It’s the go-to look for everyone, from athletes to celebrities to everyday men. But if you’re going to rock a fade, trust your hair only in the hands of a reputable stylist.

Hairy Situation

Managing women’s hair can be a challenging task. Unlike men’s hair, which tends to be shorter and more manageable, women’s hair comes in a variety of textures, lengths, and styles. That’s why some women are willing to pay a small fortune just to keep their hair looking fabulous!

When your hair goes out of shape, it can be frustrating and difficult to manage. It may not sit how you want it to or style how you’re used to. This woman learned that lesson the hard way when she canceled her hair appointment today, and her hair ended up looking like a bird’s nest.

Draw On ‘Em

Bathing or showering can be a breeze if you aren’t particularly hairy. Shampooing and conditioning your hair can be a quick and easy process. You don’t have to spend much time working the product into your hair or rinsing it out.

This guy had the risky idea of shaving just his hand to experience what it’s like to have baby-smooth skin. And you guessed it—he immediately regretted it, as now he has to shave his entire arm, legs, and probably even face to get an even look.

Not So Fierce

The lion is widely regarded as the king of the jungle and for good reason! These majestic animals are powerful, fierce, and incredibly beautiful, with one of their most striking features being their gorgeous mane of hair. But what happens if you shelve them inside a zoo?

The zookeeper had never trimmed a lion’s mane before, so he felt a little unsure as he took the scissors into his hands. As he began snipping away at the lion’s magnificent mane, he decided to straighten it out. Next thing he knew, he had cut too short.

Height Clearance Permit

The way we choose to present ourselves can speak volumes about our personalities. Some people express their individuality through fashion, while others do it through music or art. For one person, however, their hair and clothing allowed them to showcase their unique personality and style.

Introducing this man, who may or may not have been having a mid-life crisis. He recently ventured into uncharted fashion territory by sporting red fishnets, spiked hair, and height clearance permits. It was his way of testing the limits set by society.

Held Back by Hair

For many women, their hair is a significant part of their identity—a symbol of femininity, beauty, and individuality. However, for one woman, her hair had become a hindrance. After battling hair loss for years, she took matters into her own hands and shaved her head to start anew.

She wanted her head to look like it was covered in hair, so she sought a tattoo artist to help her achieve the look she wanted. Using a combination of shading and intricate designs, the artist created the illusion of hair on her scalp. Close enough.

Summoned

The idea that there had been wild dogs was so upsetting it made the local news. It’s safe to say that people were more fixated on this woman’s hairstyle than they were about their family’s safety despite the potential danger posed by the roaming pack of dogs.

Public Opinion Doesn’t Mater

Looking the part in your workplace is essential for a variety of reasons! It not only shows that you take your job seriously, but it also has a significant impact on your professional image and the way others perceive you.

People often judge a book by its cover, and the same goes for your appearance in the workplace. When you dress professionally, you set a standard for others to follow. However, in the case of this particular person, their peers are definitely not eager to follow in their fashion footsteps.

Lost Interest

For many men, growing a beard can be a game-changer when it comes to dating. It’s not just a passing trend but a statement of masculinity and style that can be irresistible to many women. A well-groomed beard can make a man look more rugged, mysterious, and even more mature.

If you’re uncertain about whether a beard is right for you, you could consider growing it out and then shaving it off, like this guy did. He gets to play with something while he’s deciding whilst having the air of mystery.

Will Do


It’s undeniable that a clean-shaven head can give a sharp and crisp appearance to a man. Whether it’s for practical reasons, such as in warm weather or for athletic performance, or as a fashion statement, more and more men are opting to shave their hair.

This guy was convinced that his hairline wasn’t as noticeable as he wanted. He then decided to shave a parting on his head to make it more visible. Although we would have gone for an inch-thick parting, this will do.

All Clear

It might have been a little hard for the driver to tell that this passenger was giving the clear. His entire neck stuck out like a big thumb. And he would have asked the passenger to sit properly so he could check the lanes himself.

Better On Them

Braiding hair is a popular technique used for centuries to style hair, and it has many benefits beyond just creating an aesthetically pleasing look. One of the most significant advantages of braiding hair is that it is easier to clean and maintain.

Image courtesy of Daily Mail UK

While anyone can technically braid their hair, African-American hair textures tend to be more conducive to intricate braided styles, as the hair is often thicker and more tightly coiled. It just looks better on them, and this picture proves that it is not as flattering on other ethnicities.

Emo Kid

In the early 2000s, the emo hairstyle became a cultural phenomenon that lasted for years. Characterized by long, sweeping bangs that often covered one eye and a straightened, choppy cut, it was a look that many people adopted to express their individuality. If you ask us, it lasted way too long.

Image courtesy of @fucked_up_hair / Twitter

To this day, this man’s emo haircut and grizzly beard still haunt him! What’s even more devastating was that this regrettable picture was shared online by a close friend. That’s what a true friend (and bad fashion sense) will make of you, a laughingstock.

Well-Prepared

Australia is renowned for its unforgiving climate, blazing temperatures, and parched, desert-like terrain. The nation encounters some of the most extreme weather circumstances on the planet, with frequent heatwaves, dry spells, and wildfires. That’s why it’s best to come prepared.

As much as some men may want to try out the African American hairstyle, it’s probably best left to the experts. While it may look easy and effortless, there’s a reason why it takes years of practice to perfect those intricate braids and twists.

Blinding

Rainbow-colored hair has become a popular trend in recent years, as people have become more daring and adventurous with their hair choices. It’s difficult to pull off as you would need to invest hours to let the stylist mix colors and paint them to your hair.

To save time, this person asked the stylist to shave parts of her head and then shape a halo. That effectively helped her save two hours of her life, as the stylist dyed her hair with different colors. It’s blinding, to say the least.

Androgynous Lookin’

Androgynous-looking models have been making waves in the fashion industry in recent years. These models are characterized by their ambiguous physical features that blur the lines between traditionally masculine and feminine traits. Take this man’s sense of style for example.
