If you go to a bank and attempt to steal money, but you were unsuccessful in doing so, there wouldn’t be any loss, but you’d still go to jail and it’s widely accepted as wrong.

Theft is taking property with the intention to permanently deprive the owner of it, which you were attempting to do

getting a service, e.g going to the barbers and running out of the store before paying

Technically fraud not theft.
