There might be a story of a cursed object. In '100 hair raising horror stories', perhaps there's a doll that brings misfortune to whoever owns it. People who possessed it had nightmares every night and soon fell ill. It had an eerie look and seemed to watch people even when they moved it to different rooms.
One hair horror story is when I got my hair caught in a zipper. I was in a rush to put on my jacket and suddenly, a big chunk of my hair was yanked. It was so painful that I almost cried. Another is when I dyed my hair at home and it turned out a completely different, awful color, like a neon green instead of the soft blonde I expected.
Perhaps a customer was lured in by the hair club's advertisement showing amazing hair transformations. But when they actually got the service, the hairpiece they received was of very poor quality. It was uncomfortable to wear, looked fake, and would easily get dislodged, causing great embarrassment to the customer in public.
A girl with long, beautiful dreadlocks once slept over at a friend's place. In the middle of the night, her friend's cat got into her hair and made a huge mess. The cat's claws got tangled in the dreads, and when the girl woke up, she had a big struggle trying to get the cat out without hurting it or further damaging her hair. It was a very chaotic and unexpected situation.
My hair system nightmare was when it started to itch like crazy. It was so uncomfortable. I later found out that I might be allergic to some of the materials in it. I had to go through a whole process of finding a hypoallergenic hair system, which was not easy at all. It took a lot of time and money to finally get one that didn't make me itch.
It's quite common. Due to the high volume of tourists going to Turkey for cheaper hair transplants, some clinics cut corners. They might use inexperienced staff or lower - quality equipment, which often leads to horror - story - like outcomes such as poor hair growth, infections, or unnatural - looking results.
One horror story is getting a hair color that turned out completely wrong. A friend of mine went to a salon asking for a natural - looking blonde, but instead got a bright orange mess. It was like they used the wrong toner or didn't leave the bleach on long enough. Another is about a bad haircut. I heard of someone who asked for just a trim but ended up with one side of their hair much shorter than the other.
One horror story I have is when I used a cheap wax strip. It didn't come off cleanly and left bits of wax all over my skin. It took forever to scrub it off and my skin was red and irritated for days.
A lot of people experience hair system horror when the hair starts to shed excessively. It's really frustrating as you start to have bald patches on your 'fake' hair. Also, if the hair system is not cut and styled properly, it can look really odd, like a wig that's just plopped on your head.
A friend of mine had a bad experience with hair bleach. She had previously dyed her hair dark, and when she tried to bleach it, the bleach reacted with the old dye in a strange way. Her hair became a patchy mess of different colors, from yellowish - green to a murky brown. Not only that, but her hair felt like straw afterwards. It took months of deep conditioning treatments to get it back to a somewhat normal state.
