This deserves a post. I posted it as a story and my dm’s blew up with ppl who resonated with this. Read more 🔽 . Talk to any makeup artist, any hair artist or stylist and this is our normal. It’s normal for us to fight tooth and nail for payment for services rendered. Even after clear contracts and terms. . Clients will finally pay after it’s terribly over due, and conveniently not pay the late fee. They act like it’s a choice. . Clients would have never paid, unless I went to battle over it. . I’ve flat out not been paid before. Almost $2000 one time. . This isn’t an issue with my private clients. This is an issue with commercial companies, ad companies, production companies, brands etc. . This is disgusting and dehumanizing. Again, THIS IS NOT OUR HOBBY. . ✨Please share!✨ This treatment has got to stop. I will start calling companies out by name. Filing small claims. Whatever I have to do. . #PayUs #ThisIsNotMyHobby #betterhavemymoney #respect #nycmakeupartist #nycmua #fedup #makeupartist #mua #professional #professionalmua #makeupbyjoh
