mini mermaid party

30 min pre-pamper + 1.5 hour party

the Details

Our most-loved celebration for the tiniest mermaids ages 3-6! Guests enjoy mermaid makeovers with face-painted scales, colorful makeup, & body glitter. They also get to paint their own starfish hair clip to wear and take home, and join in imaginative games and activities with our stylists!

We’ve redesigned our studio layout to better accommodate parents while keeping the focus on making your child’s party amazing! There is no longer a parent limit, but we kindly ask that all guests respect the fact that our staff is working hard to create the best party experience for your child.

To make the space more comfortable, we've added a small waiting area where parents can relax and shop our new retail selection while the party takes place. Please keep in mind that while we love having everyone involved, the party’s success depends on keeping the kids engaged and the staff focused on making the event as fun and seamless as possible!

Thank you for your understanding and cooperation in making this party a great experience for all!
