i'm with you there in regards to tips aussies are such Scrooges. she is such a lovely lady and i have done free work for her before for scouts. which 2 of my girls are in.

seems to be really hot here during the week and cooling off on the weekends. think the weather is trying to keep me away from the beach lol.

Hey ladies, can I ask how much you charge per face? Most people on here are from overseas, so it's hard to make a comparison...

Oh and here are more photos from my first gig the 9yr old slumber party

really like the rainbow one. i've never done a pay per face but i think around $8 full face $5 1/2 and $3 for a little something would be fair. good luck getting aussies pay more than that lol. for party's i charge $60 1st hour then $15 for every 1/2 hour after but for big events i charge in hour lots.
hope than helps

They are having fun, that's clear! Good job!

Hey Shelley. I'm yet to break out into the paying market Still working on my courage,speed etc. From what I can tell, i think the average in Perth is around $80 p/hr ((feel free to correct me anyone)) and I think it's about the same as what Synni said for ppf events.

Just have fun!, There is nothing like seeing the smile on the child's face when they see themselves in the mirror! I'm sure it will be this little girl's favorite slumber party/ b-day ever.
