The Lash Lounge Cost Comparisons

About The Lash Lounge

The Lash Lounge franchise provides women and men from all career and personal backgrounds with the opportunity to own your own business and get in on the ground floor of one of the fastest growing industries. The express, personal care services industry is growing quickly. The U.S. beauty industry is estimated to reach $63 billion by 2016, growing at a rate faster than the economy average. Lash Lounge owners enjoy the comforts of working in a relaxing, yet up-beat working environment, providing a service that helps people feel better about themselves and earn a desirable income - all while working a schedule that compliments their lifestyle.
Our franchise discovery process allows people like you to take a peek inside our business model, support infrastructure, comprehensive training, marketing platforms and company culture before joining the team! Eyelash extensions are the newest revolution in the industry. The application of individual synthetic eyelash extensions by highly trained professionals gives the appearance of naturally longer, more lush eyelashes. Unlike drug store eyelash strips or clusters, eyelash extensions are adhered to the natural lash one-by-one and will last forever with regular maintenance. The service is growing in popularity with women everywhere because of the low-maintenance beauty routine and effortless glamour it offers.
The Lash Lounge provides a high-end customer experience using top of the line products, cutting edge techniques and excellent customer service. What makes The Lash Lounge franchise different? There is no direct franchise competition. We are the #1 eyelash extension franchise in the country! Our award winning store design optimizes revenue potential while providing guests with a one-of-a-kind customer experience. We provide all owners with comprehensive pre-opening training and a customized on-going support program to meet your needs. All owners receive marketing and employee management training to replicate The Lash Lounge culture in their own salon. Our service techniques, medical grade products, cutting edge tools and top-notch customer service outperforms the competition. Our repeat clientele trust The Lash Lounge brand and given us the reputation as "the best in the business". No beauty industry experience is required. Just a desire to achieve your goals!

The total investment necessary to begin operation of a The Lash Lounge® Salon ranges from $178,471 to $495,152. This includes the $70,863 to $81,588 that must be paid to the franchisor or affiliate.
If you are acquiring the right to open three or five locations under our development agreement, instead of paying the franchisor the $49,500 initial franchise fee you will pay to us either $99,500 for the development of three Salons or $149,500 for the development of five Salons under the terms of their development agreement.
