A bad haircut's difficult enough to deal with, but having an entire country dissect your hairdresser is an entirely different story.
A hair salon's Facebook in Jordan became the subject of mass scrutiny on Tuesday when tens of thousands of people began following the page. In a span of a day, the business's page went from having 104 "likes" to over 34,000, owner Salwa Zayed said in an interview with Roya News.
Why? Well, they noticed some pretty funny makeovers.
Zayed said the page was created back in 2013. In one day alone she was bombarded with comments every minute; on Wednesday, she shut it down.
But remnants of comments on the photos remain on Twitter, and you can see why she resorted to deleting the Facebook.

Jordanians said she was the digital "phenomenon" of the week. Granted some of these makeovers are pretty bad — but why it suddenly became the target of mass trolling, and cyber bullying, was a bit of a mystery.
