What’s up with brides suddenly being so ridiculously demanding?

No wonder the term bridezilla is being used so often lately.

Unfortunately, it’s usually the bridesmaids who often bear the brunt of these crazy demands.

One bride expected her bridesmaids to cut their hair while another asked that all her bridesmaids wear the same dress even if they were uncomfortable wearing it.

This bride, however, is trying to bully one of her wedding guests into doing something she doesn’t want to do.

This wedding guest has taken to Reddit’s Weddingshaming group to expose a friend who has turned into a bridezilla by demanding that she dye her hair for the wedding.

She starts off by sharing that she has split-dyed hair (it’s half hot pink and half pastel blue) and that she always had her hair that way.

“I got invited to a wedding months ago and no mention was made about my hair. The wedding is next week and the bride called me last night. She was happy and bubbly and then mentioned my hair and asked if I had dyed it yet. I was confused and told her I just dyed it a few weeks ago,” shares the wedding guest.

“The bride laughed and said she thought she told me that I had to dye my hair a natural brown. She said that it would clash. When I explained that I had just recently dyed it and couldn't redo it so soon and also had no intention of ever doing natural brown she was silent for a moment,” she adds.

“Then she asked if I would be okay with a wig as she really didn’t want my hair clashing with her colour scheme. I told her no and honestly, she was being way too controlling and it was either I come normally or don’t come at all. She got heated and said that my hair was unnatural, so dying it natural brown is coming normally. I told her I was no longer interested in attending as this clearly was going to cause an issue,” she concludes.

The user is standing firm that she will not be attending the wedding if she’s being forced to change her hair colour or wear a wig but wants to know from Reddit users if she’s being an a**hole.
