A MUM was left sobbing hysterically when she woke up to discover her two-year-old son had cut and superglued her hair while she slept.

Sarah couldn't hold back the tears as she shared the results of the impromptu cut, as she insisted it's "so f**king bad".

In a, she pulled out the sides of her hair to show where her son Silas had cut.

And at the back of her head, tucked into her messy bun, were several tubes that had been glued in so tightly she couldn't get them out.

"I've tried really hard to get these f**king things out of my hair," she said.

"I tried olive oil, I tried coconut oil, I tried acetone. I literally tried.

"I'm literally gonna have to cut off most of my hair because of this."

Continuing to sob, Sarah said: "I didn't know it was this bad. I did not know it was this f**kng bad.

"Oh, literally I am spiraling. I am spiraling into a crisis. Yeah, I'm not okay."

People were quick to comment on the video, with one writing: "Props to your two year old, I can never find the super glue, let alone get the lid off!

"You have a smart boy!"

"The way I would have died with my 4ft long hair if my son did that," another added.

"We’d be shaving our heads together not gonna lie.

"He’s got a foot long pony on the top of his head ponytail - would be gone too."

"Omg I’m so sorry mama! You must’ve been so tired," a third added.

While others insisted her locks could still be saved.

"You can still do a nice slick back pony," one wrote.

"Don’t cut it, let it grow into the rest and slowly cut the bottom as the top grows it will even out eventually!"

Hairstyles that are kind to your locks

  1. Loose Braids: Opt for loose, soft braids rather than tight ones to minimise tension on the scalp and reduce breakage.
  2. Low Ponytail: A low ponytail is less stressful on your hair compared to high, tight ponytails. Use a fabric-covered hair tie to avoid snagging.
  3. Messy Bun: A relaxed, messy bun can be both stylish and kind to your hair. Avoid pulling your hair too tightly and use gentle hair ties.
  4. Soft Waves: Embrace your natural texture or use heatless methods to create soft waves, reducing the need for damaging heat styling tools.
  5. Half-Up, Half-Down: This style keeps some hair pulled back while leaving the rest down, reducing the strain on your scalp.
  6. Headbands and Scarves: Using headbands or scarves can keep hair out of your face without causing damage, and they can be quite fashionable.
  7. Loose Plaits for Sleeping: Before bed, loosely plait your hair to prevent tangles and breakage overnight.

"Don't give up on the glued parts yet," another advised.

"Go to the salon and see what they can do.

"Def a hair 911...but on the positive side: he didn't stab your eyes out.

"Seriously, could have been way worse!"

"Please book with a stylist and let them know in advance you need help fixing the 'unfixable' so they know to carve out some time to help you and focus on just you," a third said.

"I think you have to go to a salon to get the glue out and see what a professional can do," someone else commented.

"You’re so pretty, I bet they can give you a an adorable short style that will make the best of this."
