I want just what you painted on me last time...

I'd just return it with..."was it a butterfly?" or "were you a dragon?" and then they'll have to answer you with what it really was and THEN you can say, even if it's fudging, "Oh yes, now I remember."

That's a little weird actually. I could see if it was your family members or neighbors where you would associate a name with the face but to expect a service person to remember a random design is like expecting a waitress to remember a food order from the year before.

Sound like you handled it well. My daughter had kind of a weird experience this weekend with a mad mom. We were down to the end of the line and Emma had cleaned up her glitter stuff so I asked her to sponge out the rest of my line. When she got to the end she asked the mom "What design would she like" and the mom said "She knows what she wants!" and literally stomped off angry and left her daughter (about eight) to get her face done.

When Emma was telling me this later I said "Did she not like the mask because the little girl was thrilled with it?" and Emma said "No, she was mad before we even painted." We couldn't quite figure out what ticked her off. We often ask the parent what the child wants because they freeze when they get to the chair or change their minds about 5 times.

Sometimes you just never know what they are thinking.
