Choose the style that fits your event. Every design is hand-painted with care and creativity.
Fabulous Faces has been a part of the Kansas City community for over 15 years. We know the local schools, churches, and event venues from Overland Park to Lenexa to Johnson County. Our team of five artists is dedicated to painting with care, using only professional-grade paints that meet safety standards for children's skin. We also offer transparent pricing with hourly rates, travel fees, and discounts for churches and schools. On GigSalad, face painting prices in Kansas City range from about $50 to $200 per hour depending on the provider, and we aim to keep our rates competitive while delivering top-quality service.
What sets us apart is our emphasis on both speed and artistry. Many face painters in the area offer either fast designs or detailed ones, but we provide both styles so you can choose what fits your event. Our artists have painted at birthday parties, school carnivals, church festivals, corporate picnics, and even large community celebrations. Yelp lists several top-rated face painters in Kansas City, and we are proud to be among the services that families trust year after year.
We also understand that not every child wants the same design. Some prefer the elaborate full-face look, while others just want a quick cheek heart before running to the bounce house. By offering the Fabulous and Simplified styles side by side, we ensure that every child leaves with a smile. Our artists are trained to work with children of all ages and temperaments, making the experience fun and stress-free for families.
Fabulous designs are full-face, detailed artworks that take a few minutes per child. They cover the entire face with multiple colors, shading, and small details like feathers or scales. Simplified designs are one- or two-color cheek or arm designs that take a couple of minutes, perfect for large events with long lines.
Yes. Our artists can adapt many Fabulous and Simplified designs to match your party theme. Common requests include princess, superhero, dinosaur, unicorn, and mermaid. Let us know your theme when you book, and we will prepare appropriate paint colors and stencils.
Our team can paint up to 30 faces per hour when using Simplified designs. For Fabulous full-face designs, the pace is slower because each child receives more detailed artwork. Our booking form will tell you how many children we can serve, to help you make the best choice for your event.
Yes. We serve the entire Kansas City metro area, including Overland Park, Lenexa, Johnson County, Lee's Summit, Independence, Lawrence, and more. A travel fee may apply for events outside our normal service area, which we will explain when you request a quote.
Yes. We use only high-quality cosmetic-grade face paints that are specifically formulated for use on children's sensitive skin. All of our products are professional-grade and meet safety standards. Whether you choose a Fabulous full-face design or a Simplified cheek art piece, the same safe, vibrant, and photo-ready paints are used every time.
Our artists work with children of all ages. The Fabulous style is ideal for children old enough to sit still for a few minutes while the artist paints a detailed full-face design. The Simplified style is especially popular with toddlers and younger children who may not have the patience for a full-face session. For toddlers who are not yet ready for any face painting, we also offer small hand or arm designs so they can still join in the fun.
The Fabulous style works best for birthday parties and smaller gatherings with fewer than 15 children, where each guest can sit for a few extra minutes and leave with a true work of art. The Simplified style is the go-to choice for school carnivals, community festivals, church events, and any large gathering with lots of children and long lines where you want every child to get a turn.
Choosing the right face painting design can make your Kansas City event unforgettable. Whether you want the elaborate artistry of a Fabulous full-face butterfly or the quick joy of a Simplified cheek star, Fabulous Faces has the experience and warmth to bring your vision to life. Contact us today to discuss your upcoming party, school festival, or corporate gathering. We will help you pick the style that fits your crowd, your budget, and your children's imagination.
