I was put into a mental hospital once at 15 for cutting myself and one of the banned items (certain items were banned due to the possibility of patients hurting themselves with them) was hairclips. At the time, I met the girl who had come back for outpatient services who was responsible for the ban and she had slashed herself pretty damned deep with those hairclips.
I can't say it's normal but it's been done enough.
