So most of my adult life I've had long hair. 3 years ago I cut my armpit length hair and I've been growing it back out since. So yesterday I go into a Barber shop and tell the dude I just want my neck and around my ears trimmed. And not to touch the length of my bangs or back of my head. He proceeds to lift my hair up and run a guardless electric razor across the back of my head around the level of the top of my ears. It took everything in me not to flip out. I just sarcastically said "That's great", and started to get up. He kept telling me what else he had to do, but there was no way in hell I was letting him come near me with a pair of scissors. Long story short. I went to another place and told them to do what they had to in order to save it. And well, now I have short hair and I'm PISSED!!!!!

Went to get my hair cut the day before my brother's wedding. Told the barber that I liked to "spike it up a little." He apparently took that as meaning I wanted to look like a spike, because he proceeded to run the trimmers straight up the side of my head, making my hair look like I had a reverse triangle on my head. Think of Roger Klotz from the Nickelodeon show Doug-but with the hairdo facing the other way around. That's what it looked like. I literally jumped out of the chair, but then the damage was done. Sufficed to say, he got no tip from me. I still cringe whenever I see the wedding photos.

It took me a while to find someone who can do a good job cutting my hair short and styling it actually. I actually had long hair most of high school until senior year because I usually had shitty haircuts. But yeah I had a haircut that was so bad I decided to f***ing try fix it myself and when I couldn't I decided to buzz it myself. Thankfully I don't have this problem anymore

About 8 years ago I went to have my long hair trimmed in a Kurt Cobain style. The barber gave me a very feminine bob cut. It looked awful. I ended up wearing a beanie all the time to cover it up.
Also throughout school my dad insisted I go to a woman who lived on the street to cut my hair because she was cheap and he was a penny pincher. She knew a grand total of one hair style. The John O'Shea look.
Then again I've always had shit hair. Even today I just have it tied back in a shitty version of the Russell Brand man bun.

My last haircut has made me seriously think about switching hairdressers. It wasn't a bad hair cut really but I asked for about half an inch to be taken off of the bottom and my hair ended up losing at least three inches or so. It also ended up costing more than I expected and it just wasn't a great experience.

God yes. The last haircut I got was abysmal. The guy gave me a haircut that very much resembled Forrest Gump's.

Yeah, I forgot my wallet, so I had to f*** my barber as payment. Oh, I'm sorry. I thought you asked if I ever got Vivid over a haircut.

When I was living in the UK we had a barbers with two guys working there, one was excellent, the other... not so much. So every time you went in it was a fifty fifty chance of getting a shit haircut. I could've gone somewhere else, but the gambling gene kicked in every time I was about to enter.

I didn't get Livid over my last haircut.....
I got Vivid!
Edit: Damn! I didn't read through the thread to see if I was beaten to that joke. I was.

Yes! I like to keep my head completely shaved but that bastard cut me and now I have a razor scar right at the top of my damn forehead. It'll take a few days to heal, as this wasn't the first time this b.s. has happened..... I'm going to play hardball and wait a few days before I shave my head again!

Not "livid" per se, but I've been vocal about my disappointment if it doesn't turn out the way I want.
It's your hair. You should have 100% satisfaction. If not, let them know.

I have an undercut similar to Jack Swagger; longer on the top, very short on the sides. Barber gave me a hard part with a straight razor about a half an inch below the natural part in my hair, and I spent the next month getting asked why I had two parts, one on top of the other, on the same side.

Once. I was supposed to be in a bachelor auction. My regular barber was starting to give me shitty haircuts, but I had been going to him so long I felt loyal. Anyway, I went on his day off to get my hair cut from his nephew, was who was a much better barber. I go to the barbershop and the uncle is there and insists on cutting my hair. Anyway, I wind up with a haircut that makes me look about 8.
My next door neighbor encouraged me to get the nephew to fix the shitty job his uncle did, so I went to the nephew's place to get it fixed and the uncle comes over!!! So I gotta hide. Next, the uncle find a piece of my hair on the ground and he starts getting suspicious. So for a year's free haircuts, the guy who lives down the hall agrees to get the barber a sample of my hair and the uncle caught us.
My next door neighbor had to go to the auction in my place.

I was getting fed up of the local barber's hack jobs so I went to some swanky hairdressers to get a trim to give it a try, seeing as you know, it looked quite posh & was above average in terms of price
My haircut's pretty simple, short grade around the back & sides bit of a trim up top, spiked up
This bird drenched in fake tan somehow took it upon herself to just do whatever the hell she wanted. I had this mohawk thing going down the back of my head & instead of messy spikes on top she gives me a side parting & plasters it with grease.
So my hair's longer on one side going shorter to the other, so I couldn't even spike it up or style in any way to hide it. I think I went straight to the usual hack job barbers to shave it all off
