I found Lisa On yelp and she got back to me very quickly and was easy to set everything up. The day of the party she arrived early and got right to work. The kids thought they were magical. She did outstanding designs on everyone there. Either doing arms oR faces depending on preference. I've never seen my 2.5 year old sit still for that long. Everyone raved about the designs. She was willing to do anything asked and they all turned Oort great. The balloons were just as big of a hit and the kids thought it was so neat to have balloon "swords" and animals. I would HIGHLY recommend Lisa for any party!!

This June was my nephews 1st birthday and my sister wanted face painting and balloon making. Who…read morebetter then LISA! She is by far the best face painter I have seen and believe me I have been to A LOT of children's birthday parties in the last few years. Lisa is hands down a perfectionist with free hand face painting, her attention to detail is impressive, and each outcome is on point. I highly recommend Lisa Face Painting and Balloons for your next event. You will not be disappointed.

I hate leaving negative reviews and pulling a total Karen, especially because I've used Fairytale…read moreEntertainment three times in the past without issue. Unfortunately, this last experience was disappointing from start to finish. I specifically booked Buzz Lightyear for my son's toy story party, but wrong costume arrived instead. Mistakes happen, and I understand that no company is perfect. However, the performer also arrived 45 minutes late to what was only a two-hour party, which significantly impacted the experience. What was most frustrating was how the situation was handled afterward. When I contacted customer service, I was met with arguments and skepticism rather than an apology. Despite providing a timestamped photo showing when the character arrived, they chose to rely on the word of a teenager rather than the evidence I provided. The conversation felt unnecessarily confrontational and dismissive. Eventually, they agreed to provide a $50 credit toward a future booking. Not only was that resolution underwhelming given the circumstances, I said I wouldn't be using them again and they eventually agreed to credit my credit card back, but weeks later I still have not received the credit. The issue wasn't just the wrong character or the lateness--it was the lack of accountability, empathy, and customer service. A sincere apology and a proactive effort to make things right would have gone a long way. As a repeat customer, I expected better. Unfortunately, because of how this was handled, I will not be using Fairytale Entertainment again.

She brings her own set up, and is prepared and ready to go. She is sweet with the kiddos and can work well with time management. I just hired her for my daughter's 6th birthday party at the Westin in Itasca. She did unlimited face painting and was able to accommodate requests, or make recommendations if there was something she wasn't "great" at doing. We had kids washing off one painting after pictures and getting right back in line for something new. The kids even had their arms and hands done as well. She was definitely a HIT and would absolutely recommend her.

What a fun performer. I came across him at the Park Ridge Kiwanis annual pancake breakfast, where…read morehe was doing some entertaining mostly for the kids but definitely for the adults as well. It's through him that I heard of the Central Street Busker Festival that took place the next day and his line was loooong! Most recently, we went to his show last week that the Mt. Prospect Public Library held for spring break. That was very very well attended, with a long line of folks waiting to get in (and that's with all of us registered to attend!), but the show was a lot of fun. He did a little magic, a little comedy, and some fun balloon tricks. This guy has been doing this all his adult life--unless that's also a joke and part of his act--but regardless, he's great at his job. I'm looking forward to seeing him again and my little one having the chance to pick her balloon creation on her own.
