There’s nothing more deflating than getting a bad haircut. You show the stylist a photo of how you want to look, sometimes inspired by a celebrity or fashion model, but when it translates to your head and face, it just doesn’t look right. Ultimately, much of the blame falls on the stylist for failing to execute the style or for not admitting it wouldn’t work. Run Zhang of England shared her bad-haircut journey on TikTok, and millions of people have followed her transformation from disaster to a look that is cute and matches her upbeat, quirky personality. In the first video, she said she was excited to get a “cool girl…spiky” short haircut, similar to a “wolf” style. However, after the haircut, she didn’t look cool at all. @fluffapple IT DIDNT GO WELL AT ALL I look like geum jan diiii #haircut #transformation #nightmare #haircutfail #worstnightmare ♬ original sound – Run Zhang After the haircut, Run had to go straight to work and had no idea how to style her hair. “This is not right at all. And I have to go straight to work. I’m driving three hours to go straight to work to look like a small fruit,” she joked while prepping herself for a day of embarrassment. Maybe the haircut is…French? “Why don’t hair stylists just say they don’t know how to do a cut?! It’s not even close!” Masdelaselva wrote in the comments. Others joked that the hairstyle may be “French,” referencing an inspired scene from Fleabag in which Phoebe Waller-Bridge’s character tries to convince Sian Clifford’s Claire that her haircut isn’t terrible. @primevideo It’s FRENCH. #fleabag #phoebewallerbridge #sianclifford #hair #haircut #badhaircut #badhairday #french #funny #primevideo #amazonprime ♬ original sound – Prime Video Others joked that Run looks like comedian Jimmy O.

Strangely, the new haircut kind of fits Run’s fun-loving vibe. @fluffapple IT WAS SO BAD #haircut #transformation #nightmare #haircutfail #worstnightmare ♬ original sound – Run Zhang “Holy sh*t, your sister nailed that! I thought it was unsaveable, but I didn’t realize you had a team behind you,” Amy wrote. “Your sister is a miracle worker!” Harmony added. Run and Yun did a fantastic job of turning a tragedy into a style that looks great until her hair grows back. One wonders whether Run will try to find another hairdresser who can get the wolf cut right or lean into her new ’90s-girl throwback hairstyle. Until then, Run is still having trouble because she doesn’t know how to style her hair without Yun’s help. @fluffapple WILL IT EVER GET BETTER? #hairstyle #haircutfail #haircut #hairtransformation #transformation ♬ original sound – Run Zhang Run’s bad-haircut saga started as a sad story about a woman who was destined to feel bad about her looks for a few months. But in the end, with a little ingenuity and help from her sister, she proved that she could turn a bad haircut into something that reflected her true personality. It’s a great reminder that nothing is impossible when we have people who can lift us up when we’re down.
