    Can You Charge More for a Volume Lash Extensions Set When You Use Premade Lash Fans?


    How do you set your prices for an eyelash extension treatment? This is a topic we are asked about A LOT, and while there are a lot of different factors that go into setting your prices for any beauty treatment, there are even more factors to keep in mind when it comes to premade lash fans.

    Premade fans work out to be a little more expensive fan for fan compared to handmade volume fans, but save you a lot of time during a treatment, meaning you end up creating room for additional appointments, which means that by default, you have the capacity to make more money when you use premade lash fans. 

    With all of that in mind, how should you go about pricing your treatments when you use premade volume fans?

    Start with the Cost Per Fan

    The first step is to determine the cost of each individual fan. In keeping with the theme of saving you time, we've already done this for you, but we'll explain how we did it in case you want to do it yourself or add it to the cost of your own treatment.

    It's a little bit more complicated when you come to work out the cost for handmade fans, but for premade lash fans, all you need to do is divide the price of a box of fans by how many fans there are in the box. Once you have this, multiply that number by 200 since our clients typically have this many lashes. We now have the price per treatment for ready-made fans.


    3D (1,000 Fans) = $0.040 per fan = $8.00 per treatment

    4D = $0.058 per fan = $11.60 per treatment

    5D = $0.062 per fan = $12.40 per treatment

    6D = $0.068 per fan = $13.60 per treatment 


    Simply add this to the price of the other items you'll be using to determine the cost. If you completed a 4D volume set with premade lash fans (mixed length trays) and you used Nano-Hydrogel Eyepatches, Lady Bond, and our 5-Step Pretreatment routine (bought separately). You’d be looking at a product cost in the region of $14.70 for a full set of volume lashes.

    Can You Charge More?

    Though the service is faster when you use premade lash fan, you're actually giving your client the same amazing quality as you would be when using handmade volume fans. There are plenty of reasons for this, the key one being that these volume fans were still created by hand by a professional who really understood the assignment when it came to creating volume fans according to London Lash standards. 

    Think about how often you spend a little bit more for faster delivery—the same concept applies here. It looks just as good, and the fact that it's faster makes it all the more appealing for clients who prefer to keep appointments short for one reason or another. 

    Add an extra $10 on to your regular volume treatments to cover the additional cost of the fans compared to handmade, and as a little bonus for giving your clients flawless lashes, faster without ever cutting a corner.

    All in all, whether or not you charge extra for a lash set using premade volume fans is completely up to you, it's just worth knowing that you can if you want to!
