Over the weeks I've seen many threads on here discussing treatment price increases, however I'm seriously considering lowering them.
I appreciate its been a tough time of year for everyone and what with the cold weather this hasn't helped either.
I offer a range of treatments including eyelash extensions, that I have been offering for a year. I think I'm good at them, I have worked very hard to be the best I can at them. I have a number of regular clients and a few that get them done for that special occasion but they really haven't been as popular as I've hoped.
I started off advertising them at £60 then dropped to £40 ( on offer) as only had one client pay that price. Even at £40 people don't want them. Most of my clients that have them get them done with a shellac mani as I then offer them both for £50.
What has made me think is that I've had a lot of enquiries for them but when I reply that they are £40 on offer from £60 i never hear back.
I know there are places in my town that offer sets for £30 but how can this be a full set of individual lashes????
And I'm pretty confident they are not and instead cluster or express.
I have done all the advertising I can, I've been through all the threads on here so its not that I'm not advertising properly but the fact that the enquiries lead to nothing shows that people won't pay that.
I feel that the quality of my work is worth the £40 but if I can't give them away at that then what option do I have really.
I offered them at £20 for one month only and I was obviously really busy but my work, training and products is worth so much more than that, and the only clients I attracted were those that wanted a cheap treatment and I never saw them again.
Please take a look at my work on Facebook:
Eyelashextensionsinkent
And hopefully see that my work is of a good standard although I'm always trying to improve.
I love lashing but I just don't seem to be making a return on them.
Has anybody else had this - I live in Canterbury, Kent so maybe it's just not a popular area for lashes?
