Common Questions

Booking & Payment
Weekend dates tend to fill quickly, especially during spring and summer. If you have a specific date in mind, it's best to reach out as early as possible.
Once availability is confirmed, a deposit is required to reserve your time. Details are shared after your request is reviewed.
Final payment is typically due before or on the day of the event. You'll receive full details when your booking is confirmed.
Event Logistics
On average, approximately 10–15 faces per hour, depending on design style and event flow. Simpler designs move faster; detailed work takes a bit longer.
A complete setup is brought to every event — table, chair, and all supplies. All that's needed is a small space to work and, when possible, access to shade or an indoor area.
Yes — travel is available within the Charlotte area and surrounding locations. A travel fee may apply depending on distance.
Safety & Kids
Yes. Only cosmetic-grade, skin-safe face paints designed specifically for use on skin are used — nothing from a craft or hobby store.
Face painting works best for children ages 3 and up. Younger children are welcome, but they'll need to be comfortable sitting still for a few minutes.
Most designs take between 3–5 minutes. The pace adjusts naturally to the size and energy of the event.
Changes & Edge Cases
Cancellations and rescheduling are handled case by case. Please reach out as soon as plans change — the earlier, the easier it is to work with.
A covered area — tent or indoor backup — is recommended for outdoor events. This protects the setup and keeps the experience running smoothly regardless of weather.
Yes. For larger events, additional artists may be available depending on scheduling and needs. Mention your guest count in the booking form and it'll be factored into the quote.
