Thank you!

Thank you!

Nick says, "tell them that I will be there that day and cant wait "

That's a direct quote from the book of faces!

I booked on a night that I;m asuming MNSSHP will be held. The latest appointment I could get was 210. She told me they only have appointments til 330. Have they not added the extra appointments in for MNSSHP yet? I was thinking of doing BBB beacuse at least I could get a 3pm appointment there. Our dinner reservation is at 430 at CP.

 

[Berlioz70]

Last year they did not open up the MNSSHP times until the party dates got closer because they were trying to judge if they would need the extra time. As those are the busiest days of the year, I'd anticipate them opening up the later times by July.

I have a strange question my daughter has severe allergies so I was wondering about the make up they use. Do you get to keep it like at BBB. Or is it used again for others. She will be doing the girl package it says it comes with make up and nail polish but wasn't sure how it worked here.

TIA

 

[Berlioz70]

The Nail Polish and Lipstick goes home with the package, so she is the only person it's used on.

As for the eye shadow and blush, it's all Ben Nye. Those items are shared, but a clean applicator is used for each person and once it touches the skin, the applicator does not touch the makeup again. The eye shadow applicators have 4 sides, so they'll flip and use each side. There is a link on the first post for more info on Ben Nye.

So excited! I just booked my kids here on Sept 23. I am hoping that is the halloween party. Now off to find pirate outfits.

They will love it! It was the BEST money spent, DS looked so Cute/Funny with his little beard. We couldn't stop chuckling at him. He loved it (he's not a super outgoing fella). DD did BBB that morning as well. They were both all done up. Best pictures ever!

I've seen some costumes on ebay...not sure of the costs.

This is a great thread, so full of helpful information. Thanks Everyone!

My son will be doing this when we go in June and I think I may be more excited than he is! I'm still trying to decide on purchasing the picture at the end. Can I take a picture of him too when the PL photographer takes the picture? What about taking pictures and video during the process of getting his transformation done?

You are welcome to take photos & video during the transformation, but cameras cannot be used in the special room. We were allowed to bring ours in, but they had to be put away before we entered.

Thanks for replying. I figured they wouldn't allow it in the special room but thought I'd ask to be sure.

I'd like to get feedback on what the little pirates did with their "swords" for the remaining of the day, like when going on the rides. Did the sword get in the way? Will it fit in a locker?

Also can the appointment be made 180 days before arrival at WDW (staying on site) or do we have to wait until 180 days before the actual day that we want the appointment?

Thanks

Becky gets a rash very easily, but had no problem with her make over! Here she is (on the right) with her friend, Nora after their make-overs:

You can't take pics in the "secret" room, but you will want to budget for the $15 the secret room pic will cost! It'll be awesome and will include a special decoder...Becky and Nora just loved the whole thing!

 

[LaurenT]

I'd be annoyed too. I've booked this for my friend and I in May (two adult females) and they didn't mention anything about a price difference.

We did the "empress" (girls) package in Feb and it was $29.95 - same as the boys.

 

[shawni]

This sounds so fun. I am going to try to get this booked ASAP, now that we know which day we plan on being in MK. Thanks for the great pics and tips everyone.

 

[shawni]

Does anyone have a suggestion about a good time to get this done? We are trying to figure out if we should get it done early in the day or just before the parade. Also, are the swords a problem with rides, etc.? Would we need to rent a locker for these?

Thanks!

Got answer to this one....I made appts this morning
For others that might want to know, yes if staying on site you can book 180 days prior to arrival at WDW (assuming appt would have to be during first 10 days of your vacation like ADRs but not sure)

If you are taking a break and going back for a swim, do the make over after you're back in the park.
We did ours at 3 pm....that was too close to the little pirate parade for me...the girls almost missed it.
If you're not taking a break, I'd do it in the morning...that way they have the whole day to play with their costumes on. The swords are small enough to tuck into the pouches or place under your feet for rides....

That's good news thanks! We made 10am appt. and want to do that side of the park on that day so it works well.
