A puzzling question

That hairdresser really .......... my hair!
a) killed
b) butchered
c) throttled
d) All options are not OK

I go for (b) because 'butchered' here means 'spoiled" . Can I say 'killed my hair'?

Omar Ahmed Can I say 'killed my hair'? In a marginal slangy way, perhaps, but I think the answer is supposed to be (b).
