She Is Unteachable

Lanre not wanting to explain anything just said, “I am only here for the wedding. But in case you want me to be the one in charge of make up for any occasion, and the pay will be good, you can have my contact. I won’t mind coming if it is worth it”.

The lady told Lanre to wait that she was just going to go get her phone to collect her number. Then she left to go get her phone.

By the time Lanre was done, four of the girls who were done were already waiting for their turn. She decided to give her contact to the young lady that asked before continuing with her work.

She felt happy doing it. She loved this art, beautifying people.

The next person took the seat the first girl sat on. Then she told Lanre to also make hers beautiful.

Just then the one whose make up has just been done came by to thank Lanre. She thanked her telling her the make up was nice and that she was thankful Lanre did not listen to her. Lanre only nodded her head and continued with what she was doing.

Lanre made sure all the make up she did were simple almost looking like it is the person’s natural face. In a wedding, the bride and her bridal train should look beautiful and cute not like insane vixens.

So she made sure she did not use shouty colours on them. And it was her pleasure that they were all liking it. Well, that was until the make up artist arrived with her cohorts and sent her girls to come do the make up.

Since they were here already, some of the girls had to go to them to save time. Lanre noticed that they were adding too much colour. She told them to clean it off.

“Look at what I did here for these four ladies. Look at what I am doing now, do same. And please use the right fitting colour for each of them. Stop making the face look like ripe papaya while her neck is still ebony black”. Lanre said trying to correct the make up artists who had just arrived and were doing the make up to her detest.

“Please, what is your problem? Why can’t you face what you are doing? Besides I wonder who you think you are to tell us what to do. Are you our boss?” One of the make up artist asked.

Lanre got annoyed. The girl was definitely arrogant and full of pride, so she is unteachable.

Lanre decided to face the person she was working on her face. This one had so many acne. So Lanre had to make sure it was properly concealed.

One of the girls who’s make up is being done by one of the other makeup artist stood up abruptly from her seat. “Please, I will get my make up done by her abeg. I can’t be looking odd among all of us in the bridal train”. She said walking away from those make up artist.
