I'm very surprised at how cheap some of these lotions are in the U.S. I paid $72 for Worship and $85 for Siren at my salon in Canada. They were 13.5oz bottles. How much do these particular products go for in the States?
Perhaps some of you should consider shipping across the border:)

between 45-55 dollers depends on were your at.

THAT blows me away! We sell Worship for $35 and Siren for $42. Like Pink said, it depends on where you are too. I am in a "one horse" town in TX, so we can't sell for what salons in north Dallas do, but at the same time, since our prices are lower, LOTS of people make the drive just to buy lotion.

Same here Anna.... I try to be at least $2-$3 less than all my competitors, our worship is $38 and so is Believe..... I let Rapture go in the salon for $30-$35 (depending if you are a cute girl or not)

WOW! I live in Portland, Oregon and thought our prices were high...Compared to others, we are within range...I paid 40.00 for Believe and 45.00 for Rockstar..

There's more to it than merely the price. We must remember rental overhead, staff salaries, supply & demand, electricity bills for your area, Location, etc. billions of factors to consider in addition to making a marginal profit and keeping customers happy.

We almost always sell for Suggest price. Belive $45.99, Rapture $39.99, Siren $55, but if they have any package or membership they get % off.
