Fab Faces face painting

Many choose to book 2 hours of face painting (or glitter tattoos) and balloons provided by two artists. This cost is $250 total for a family party.  One service is $170 for 2 hours.  Corporate or public events may be slightly higher. There may be a travel charge.  Please see pricing for further info.

Balloons appeal primarily to younger kids, whereas body art appeals to all ages...teens and adults included, therefore balloon twisting is discounted a little bit more to account for this.  It is still very hectic because kids like to pop them and come back for more, but we are trying to keep prices affordable, especially for families with young kids.

We don't have a set stipulation, but it's in your best interest to secure your time slot before someone else takes it.  If we are not available, we may recommend someone else.

All ages, with tiny kids being optional (read next question also).  Adults will likely want to get painted, even if you don't anticipate that... including men.  We do not recommend this for an all baby or young toddler party unless it is offered equally for the parents. 

Young toddlers and babies are hesitant about being approached by strangers.  If this is the case with a particular child, we are willing to try quickly stamping on product and applying glitter, or painting an arm or leg so they can see what we're doing.  All kids must be willing.

In general, allow 3 to 5 minutes per design for an average mixed-age crowd, with younger kids taking more time than older (they wiggle!). Impromptu custom requests might take longer and there may be a longer transition time in between younger guests in and out of chair. This is based on a selection of large designs, we can also substitute very simple designs to expedite a long line at a large event.

Face paint will not last for more than a day, and less if it is hot out and/or kids are in a jump house. Glitter tattoos will last for several days, but may be removed sooner if desired.

Just a small space, about 5 x 5 ft, to set up with some extra space, if possible, for guests to congregate.  We have everything we need, but it's preferable to have shade if outdoors, even in cool weather.

Many customers choose to book 2 hours regardless, and we can tailor the services to the number of guests at the time of party (fewer guests = more/larger designs, and vice versa) if you want to adhere to that time frame.  You may also ask to extend your time frame at the time of the party (this is subject to availability, but usually works out).

We do not need an exact head count, but if you know your party will be large in general, we suggest booking extra time beyond 2 hours with the option to downgrade at time of party if necessary.  Mention this beforehand if you think this is a good option for you, subject to pre-approval.

Balloons are not recommended for young babies, and adults and teens are usually not interested; but everyone in between.  They are quick and provide entertainment while kids are waiting for face or body art.

We can provide mutiple designs and/or balloons and/or do adults who have not been painted.  We don't charge for a little bit of overtime for children who arrive late. However, if it gets chaotic, you may incur charges for each 15-minute increment of overtime. This is up to you to decline or accept. More info in the fine print of reservation page.

At this time, we are not providing clowns or characters.  However, if this is important to your child I may be able to recommend another company.

Check, cash, money order, PayPal, Venmo, Square, all credit cards.  However, do not mail cash to pay a deposit.  We can send invoice for on-line payment, etc.
