Teen Shares Old Photo, Then Reveals Mom Had No Idea How To Style Her Hair ‘Half Up, Half Down’

Hanna De Castro, 17, tweeted side-by-side images of the hairstyle she was looking for and the one her mom ended up giving her when she was a young dancer. It turns out, her mom had no idea how to style her hair the way she wanted.

While what she wanted was to have the bottom half of her hair down and parts of the sides come together in the back, the description she gave her mom as a child translated very differently.

What she got for her dance photo was literally half of her hair up in a ponytail, while the other half was down.

Hanna’s post was familiar to many other users on the social media site Twitter because people started replying with videos of their own hairstyle mistakes, many of which are shown being the same "half up, half down" style gone wrong.

Hanna even reconnected with her preschool crush after her post went viral!

Like Hanna's hair issue, this girl's mother only straightened half of her hair!

The coolest thing to come out of Hanna's viral fame is that she reconnected with a friend from kindergarten named David Gonzales. "OMG I THINK I WENT TO PRESCHOOL WITH YOU," he replied to her.

He then sent her this photo of them from years ago, and the pair started talking again!
