TESTIMONIALS


Q: Why hire a professional painter?
A:
You can definitely pay less for someone less experienced, but by hiring a professional painter, you come out way ahead when it comes to safety and quality.  I am able to paint much faster than a hobby or volunteer painter.  I spend hours practicing my skills so that when hired, you get the most for your money.  I use top-quality FDA approved cosmetic face paints and cosmetic glitter - which is very important! You do not want stains on your carpet, rashes on your guests skin or crackling paint being applied at your party. If you choose to hire another company, make sure you find out what kind of supplies they use, and that the glitter does not contain aluminum, which can scratch, cut and seriously damage the eyes. 

2Q: What types of designs can I expect during our party time?
A: We do full faces - such as those seen around our site!  A lot of customers just expect a butterfly or heart on the cheek.  Guests at our parties can expect full service for less!! (of course we do offer the smaller designs for cheeks/arms for those not wanting their full face painted)

Q: Do you require a deposit?
A:
I do require a deposit of $50 for most events to hold the date.  This ensures that I will hold your date and time, and will not book another event for that same time period.  I require a deposit to protect myself from last minute cancellations, and deposits are non-refundable.  I accept all major credit cards.  If you choose to mail a check for the deposit, this is required within 7 days of booking, and no later than 10 days before your scheduled event.

Q: How far in advance do I need to make my reservation?
A:
It is never too early to book your event!  You should make your reservation as soon as you know the date/time of your event to ensure that it is available! Weekends book up fast, especially around holidays, so don't wait too long.

Q: What do I need to provide for the face painter?

A: Space! If indoors, a place with good lighting.  If outdoors, a shaded area free from pets.  We provide our own table, stools and supplies.  Activities for waiting children are strongly recommended.  An adult should be supervising waiting children to avoid conflicts in line and help the painter keep things moving smoothly.  Our painters will not attempt to resolve conflict unless a danger to the child(ren) exists.

Q: Will my child be able to sleep with the face paints?
A: Our face paints are created by a world famous cosmetics company.  They are water based, and without a special solution to make the design "permanent", the designs will smudge or smear, and are easily removed with soap and water.  While the child can certainly wear the paints to bed, there will be more color on their pillow than on their face in the morning!

Q: How old does my child have to be to get face painted?
A: We can paint for all ages, from 0 to 115.  All we ask is that your child be able to sit still for a few moments at a time, and WANT to be painted.  We will not paint on a child who is forced to sit still.  Our opinion is that it will create a fear in the child, and as they get older they will associate face painting with negative or scary feelings.

Q: Do you do body painting or prenatal painting?
A:
Yes!  Body/Belly painting is available by personal appointments only, although I can travel to your location for an additional fee.  We do not paint on nude models - pasties or bra and panties are required.  Please contact us for more details.

Q: I live outside the Omaha area.  Do you travel?
A: Yes! Please call us for requirements and pricing for locations greater than 30 miles.  If we do not meet your budget, we can help you find another painter that may be able to assist you with your event.

Q: Will you consider donating your services for our fundraising event or charity?
A: Jumpers 4 You and Omaha Masquerade budget a specific amount each year to donate to the charitable causes of our choice.  As much as we would love to donate for all worthy events, we are still running a business and must pay for our own expenses.  We can, however, offer discounted pricing for face painting and inflatables based upon the requesting organization and our schedule.  Please call us to discuss your needs.





















 
  TESTIMONIALS


All the kids loved getting their faces painted! Sonya was very friendly and was very easy to work with. Everyone had great things to say about the face painting. Thank you for all of your help in making this event fun for everyone.

Sonya was excellent! She arrived on time with everything she needed. All I needed to provide was a space for her to set up. The kids at the party were so excited to see so many different designs! Her talent was remarkable. I even put the extra business cards in the goodie bags for them to take home to parents. I would recommend the face painting for any party or event.

My daughters and all the children said it was the best birhtday party ever. Even the parents were impressed.
-Teresa Orent, Omaha




I just wanted to say "WOW"! We were all so impressed with the face paintings.  I have used other painters in the past but this was the best I have seen, and it was worth every penny to see the look on my kids faces.  Thank you so much-we will be calling again and again!
