Beauty Service Pricing Calculator

Most beauty pros set prices by looking at the studio down the street. That number knows nothing about your rent, your product costs, or how long your signature service really takes. This calculator works from your numbers instead, and gives you a recommended price and range for a single service.

Solo providers, such as a lash artist booking 60-minute lash lifts or a nail technician with a full book of gel manicures, enter the service length, what products and supplies cost each time, their monthly rent and what an hour of their time should pay them. Owners enter the provider’s hourly wage and any commission instead, so labor is priced the way it is really paid. Rent is shared by the hour: a 90-minute back facial in a $2,000-a-month suite, worked 160 hours a month, carries $18.75 of rent. Under “Customize your calculation” you can add other expenses, card fees and admin time.

Every recommended price keeps a profit margin of at least 30%, so the business earns something after costs and pay. The result shows the lowest price that covers your costs and labor (break-even), the recommended price that adds your profit margin, and how your current price compares. Treat it as a starting point: local demand, your experience and your results still matter.
