How To Price Your Anime Lash Sets

Your guide to smart, structured pricing that actually makes sense (and gives you profit). Here's an easy break down of how to price anime lash sets.

Finding the right price for your anime sets can feel tricky - especially when you’re factoring in things like appointment time, lash count, and how often clients will need infills.Whether you’re offering a quick 30-minute set that partially fills the lash line, or a full, dramatic anime look that takes up to 3 hours, knowing how to price these services is essential for your business.

In this guide, we’ll break down how to correctly price a 30 minute appointment - where you apply a maximum of 20 lashes - compared to a longer appointment that can take up to 3 hours.

This understanding will help you align your pricing with the services you offer.

How To Price Anime Lash Sets

The purpose of an Anime Set is to create a spikey, wispy, and an intentionally "gappy" lash line that mimics a wide-eyed, cartoon-inspired effect.

There are two main types of appointments:

✨ 30-45 Minute Anime Set

• Only 10–15 anime lashes per eye (around 20–30 total)

• Meant to refresh the lash line, not fully fill it

• Great for time-poor clients or quick touch-ups

• Clients must return every 1–2 weeks for maintenance

✨ Full Capacity Anime Set

• Starts with 10–15 anime lashes per eye

• Fills the rest of the lash line with classics or closed fans

• Achieves 100% coverage for extra volume and texture

• Takes 1–3 hours, depending on artist speed and styling

• Clients return every 2–4 weeks for infills

What's The Base Cost?

Before setting your prices, you need to calculate your base cost - the minimum it costs you to perform the service. This includes:

• Product used per client

• Your wage or hourly rate

• Rent, power, and other business expenses

💡 Example — Lash Adhesive Cost:

• $35 per bottle = approx. 250 drops → $0.14 per drop

• 3 drops per full set → $0.42 total per client

Once you know your hourly base cost, pricing becomes simple math 👇

Let’s Talk Numbers

Say your base cost per hour is $50 - this is what you'd need to charge just to break even. So:

• 1-hour infill = $50 minimum

• 2-hour full set = $100 minimum

• 3-hour full set = $150 minimum

  
  

For a 30-minute Anime Set, your base cost is $25 - which means your pricing should start at $40–$80, depending on your experience, speed, and area.
