....I'd be rich!

If I got a nickel for everytime someone asked me whether I have encountered Bridezillas, I'd be rich!

The truth is - I have been extremely lucky to have only dealt with 3 Bridezillas EVER - but that's not to say I haven't had picky Brides. Sometimes I want to scratch my eyes out.

Having done this for a few years now, I've learned a few things about being in this industry. This is just another job (for the most part). I'm all about creating good rapport with people because I find I do a much better job when the relationship is there and there is a mutual respect. Although hair is apparently a 'major' thing for brides, it seems as though the minute it's done with and to their satisfaction - they move on, sometimes forgetting to even send a quick thankyou afterwards or worse yet, they totally pretend they don't know you when you see them. Then, there are those brides who will shout at the top of their lungs for you, testifying to your skills.

It's funny because when Brides do the latter, I get all embarassed - and when they don't, it bothers me lol. Honestly, it doesn't matter either way because in the end, I was hired to do a job and whether that relationship flourishes afterwards or not, I can't take it personally. My job is very different than, say a photographer who gets to know the couple for a long period of time. I have been blessed to have so many Brides recommend me to their friends and those who send me an email to check up on how business is doing. All in all, it still amazes me that I'm still doing this :)

So what am I really saying? Nothing really lol - all just an observation of how people perceive what I do!
