146 Kids Who Decided To Cut Their Own Hair, And Then Regretted Their Decision
Cutting your own hair might seem like a great way to downsize your spendings, but most of us have learned that it isn't exactly an option as early as our childhood. These smart kids probably had the best intentions, too, but after spending some time with scissors unattended, they've probably cried seeing their bad haircuts. Good thing though, that the tears of these funny kids are not in vain as their bad hair day is an excellent laughing material for us! We're not trying to be mean at these kids' hairstyle choices, but rather remember ourselves in the same situation as them. Precisely because of that, Bored Panda has compiled these hilarious pictures of what happens when kids cut their own hair.
Don’t forget to vote for your favorite kids' haircuts below, and feel free to submit your own photos of your kids’ or your own botched hair do's!

Aww don't be sad honey. I believe the side ponytail could help. You just have to ask mommy or daddy to learn how to do something like this: 2a39ffbd5f...4cc31c.jpg

My Sister (who Is Now 18 And Still Cuts Her Own Bangs To Save $ But Is A Lot Better At It Now) When She Was Younger Got A Hold Of Scissors A Lot In Her Sleep. She Cut The Very Middle Tip Of Her Bangs. This Isn't Even The Worst It Looked, But I Think She Kept Cutting It Short After This To Try Hiding The Fact It Got Cut At All. We All Knew Though.

What do you think ?

I showed this post to my mother and asked if my two siblings and I had ever done this. We are all in our early twenties now. She promptly said " absolutely not, your father and I made sure you three did not have access to scissors or trimmers." I have to wonder about some of these parents....

Why most of children cut theirs' hair in the same place? Maybe this look was a most popular in Kindergarten and all children would to have it.
