You have a big project to tackle, but you’re feeling confident. You have the tools, the supplies, and the know-how. But then, as you start working, you realize something is not quite right. Your DIY project is going horribly wrong. Does this sound familiar? If so, you’re not alone.
Here are some DIY projects that went wrong:
DIY sugar wax
Cooking a mixture of sugar, lemon and water to make wax for your armpits. The TikTok user made candy instead of making wax.

DIY relaxing hair after bleaching
A user wanted to try a new hairstyle that included bleaching hair and then relaxing. The bleaching went well but her hair fell off after she used a relaxer on her hair.

A user tried installing individual lashes at home for the first time and the lash glue went into her eye almost blinding her.
