Waxing margins

[sammygrey]

Hi there, I currently do mobile spray tanning and would like to gradually add treatments to my menu.

Waxing is really appealing to me and I am looking at booking two or three of Kim Lawless courses and then using perron rigot as it seems so highly regarded.

I'm really struggling to find out whether it would be worthwhile based on what is charged locally for waxing as I'm in quite a cheap area for beauty treatments.

I found that the direct costs of tanning quite easy to work out as it's approx 20 tans per bottle plus disposables and petrol etc. Waxing seems a bit more difficult to track down an answer to.

Can anyone send me some rough costings that I can use please? Particularly if you use PR : )

Thanks very much,
Sam XX

Hiya! Well it all depends how much wax you use. If you out on more than you need to, it'll cost you more.

I like to keep things simple so here's my take on it.

Worst case scenario:
You did no more than four Brazilians at the average price of £25 per go. That's £100 taking for £15 outlay.

Best case scenario:
You get six or seven Brazilians at £25 per go and lots of under arms and facial waxing, so on average pricing, you'll easy take £200 or more for a £15 outlay.

That's based on average pricing remember and not fiction.

The Cristal Ocean strip wax is so economical that it costs pennies and goes a long way.

Hope that helps:)
