Whether you’re fully aware of it or not, your haircut can have an incredibly powerful impact on your life. A stylish, fresh hairstyle done by a skilled professional stylist can make you feel confident and like you can take on the world.

On the flip side, a bizarre hairdo that looks like (and probably is) a mistake can leave you feeling deflated, demotivated, and devastated. The ‘Just [Eff] My [Stuff] Up’ online community has been sharing photos of tragic hair accidents for around a decade, and we’ve decided to showcase the worst fails of all time. Scroll down for some of the biggest disasters in the world of hair. Just remember, nobody's judging the people there, just their hair.

If you’ve known your hairdresser for years and you’re consistently happy with the way they work—way to go! No matter if someone cuts your hair, bakes your bread, fixes your home, delivers your newspaper, or gives you financial advice, it’s a blessing to have professionals in your life that you know you can trust to do their jobs well.

However, if you’re on the lookout for a new stylist, things can get tricky. It’s hard to know who to trust without first seeing them in action.

The ‘Thriving Stylist’ notes that good hair salons will have accessible booking options. If there’s poor communication between the stylists and their clients, then it’s a red flag. If a client feels like they’re being ignored, they’ll get frustrated and simply look for alternatives instead of wasting their time.

Another thing to look out for is how the salon presents itself on social media. Do the photos match reality or are they a more glamorous version of what’s actually offered?

Another issue is if the salon only has limited payment options. For example, a stylist who only takes cash is obviously going to lose clients who would love to be able to pay by card, too. And vice versa.

The more flexible you are, the fewer potential clients you’ll lose, because you’ll be catering to the widest possible audience.The ‘Thriving Stylist’ also notes that your image as a hair stylist also matters. To put it bluntly, if it’s clear that you haven’t put any effort into your own hairstyle, why should your clients trust you with their hair?

Meanwhile, Business Insider urges salons to update their websites and social media so that all clients will have access to the relevant info they need. Furthermore, the price you have to pay for a stylist’s services also matters. Offering discounts may be a subtle red flag.

Salons that offer quality services know the value of their efforts. On the other hand, if there’s little transparency about any hidden extra fees, then it’s not a good look.

The wittily named ‘Just [Eff] My [Stuff] Up’ subreddit was created in mid-December of 2014. Over the past decade, the community has grown by leaps and bounds. Currently, there are nearly a million members—945k to be exact—who call this online group home. It continues to be active to this very day, with a large contingent of moderators to keep things in order.

If you feel inspired by the photos in this list and want to share any bad hairstyles you spot in the future on the sub, then you’ve got to abide by the community’s rules. For instance, you have to make sure that you’re sharing photos of actual human hair. Wigs or animal hair aren’t allowed.

Cosplay is acceptable only as long as the hair belongs to the person in the photo. Once again, if it’s a wig, then ‘Just [Eff] My [Stuff] Up’ isn’t the place to share it.

Meanwhile, it’s also important that you don’t simply repost whatever’s already popular on the subreddit. Sure, you might have come across a stunningly disastrous hairdo that you can’t wait to share with the hundreds of thousands of other members, but you should hold your horses.

Slow down. Do a bit of research. If a photo of the haircut has been posted on the sub within the last month, you shouldn’t share it again.

#24 How And Why

What’s more, new members shouldn’t share any pineapple haircuts (which are low-hanging fruit) or anything on the Classic Cuts list.

Furthermore, you should ensure that there’s absolutely no identifying information in the photos you post. The point is to gently poke fun at the hairstyles, not create problems for the people who got them.

It might sound obvious, but the haircuts you post shouldn’t be photoshopped. What’s more, you actually have to share real hairdos, so that’s a big ‘no’ on any cartoons, paintings, or drawings.

Furthermore, the moderators add that the community should be empathetic and not post anything related to people’s illnesses or injuries: “We’re here to laugh at people’s poor hairstyle choices, not their medical conditions which they have no control over.”

Which of the photos in this list made you cringe and groan the loudest? Which haircuts would you say deserve a medal for being the very worst ones ever? When was the last time you regretted a hairstyle you got?
