Facial waxing, please help with pricing

[ohairas]

Hi girls~ I'm going to start offering facial waxing at my salon. I haven't done it there in years because I think it's a big messy PITA. Alas, I need the extra dough.

What do you pay for your eyebrow arch? What about lip and chin? Is there a package price for all of the above?

I don't want to set prices to high, but I've got to make it worth my while. I'll have to get all of the supplies as well.

To give you an idea, I charge $23 for a haircut and $29 for a cut and style. That's a little low for my shop but I try to keep prices about what "I" would pay. So, since I strive to make about $30 per half hour I'm thinking $13 for an arch that takes me 15 minutes.

Thanks for you input!
Nikki

Eyebrows, about $5-10. If they thread them, I'll give a big tip just because they do such a good job (and it looks complicated!). Above lip/chin... about $10-15.

You should offer a 'Face Special' for a discounted price. My friend often needs all three things done, but ends up paying almost $40 when it all adds up. I'm sure a lot of girls would go for that.

Most places in Boston charge about $15 for brows, some charge up to $25 or even more at higher end salons, some charge a little less for repeat visits. Most lip waxing prices I've seen are around $12 or so. Keep in mind that the average price for a haircut here is around $45.

I paid around $12 for an eyebrow wax and plucking last summer.

Thank you so much ladies. I think I'm going with $13 per area, with a $2 charge per additional area. So a brow, lip, and chin would be $17.
