The Item 19 figures, where each number ranks against peers, and the litigation & churn detail are in the full report.

LashBar franchise profit — what the FDD discloses

Plainly: LashBar does not disclose franchise profit or revenue. Its most recent FDD makes no Item 19 financial performance representation, so there is no franchisor-backed earnings figure for LashBar — any number quoted elsewhere is an estimate, not a disclosure. The absence is itself worth weighing (many beauty & personal care franchisors do disclose), and the full report reads the risk signals LashBar's FDD does contain — fees, litigation, and outlet churn — against peers. For brands that put earnings on paper, see Salon, beauty & personal care franchises with disclosed Item 19 earnings.

LashBar lawsuits & legal history (FDD Item 3)

We do not publish a litigation answer for LashBar. Item 3 could not be read reliably from this particular filing, and a claim that a company has no legal history is not one to make on a failed parse — so we say we do not know instead. Item 3 of the FDD itself is the place to check; the methodology page explains what we do and do not machine-read.

LashBar closures & failure rate

Before you sign, LashBar will hand you a list of current owners to call as references — and they choose who's on that list. It won't include the owners who quit, got bought out, or were forced out last year. The FDD does report that number, even though the reference list leaves those people off. Below is what LashBar's most recent filing shows, and whether it's normal for a beauty & personal care of this kind.

The closest thing an FDD has to a failure rate is Item 20 — outlet openings, closures, terminations and non-renewals, reported by the franchisor. LashBar's latest tables show a growing franchised network. The actual closure and termination counts, and how LashBar's churn ranks against beauty & personal care peers, are in the full report.

Who owns LashBar?

LashBar's franchise is offered by Lashkind Franchise, Inc. — the franchisor named on the cover of its most recently filed Franchise Disclosure Document (2026), and the entity a franchisee actually signs with. That name comes straight off the filing at WI DFI; it identifies the franchisor, not necessarily the ultimate parent company behind it.

LashBar franchise — frequently asked

Who owns LashBar — who is the franchisor?

LashBar's most recently filed FDD (2026) names Lashkind Franchise, Inc. as the franchisor — the entity you would actually sign the franchise agreement with, as stated on the disclosure document itself. A registry filing names the franchisor, not necessarily its ultimate parent company.

How much does a LashBar franchise cost?

LashBar's most recently filed FDD (Item 7) puts the total estimated initial investment at $202,170 – $294,670, with an initial franchise fee of $45,000 and a 6% royalty. That price is the franchisor's own estimate of what it takes to open, not a quote. The full report breaks down every fee line and benchmarks it against beauty & personal care peers.

How much profit does a LashBar franchise make?

LashBar makes no Item 19 financial performance representation, so there is no franchisor-disclosed revenue or profit figure for LashBar at all — and profit would never be disclosed even where earnings are, because it depends on your rent, labor and how you operate. Any profit figure quoted elsewhere is an estimate, not a disclosure.

Does LashBar disclose financial performance (Item 19)?

No — LashBar's most recent FDD makes no Item 19 financial performance representation. Its absence is worth weighing; the report focuses on the verifiable risk signals instead.

Are there lawsuits against LashBar?

We do not publish a litigation answer for LashBar: Item 3 could not be read reliably from this filing, and we would rather say so than assert a clean record we have not verified. Item 3 of the FDD itself is the place to check.

Is LashBar a good franchise to buy?

Nobody can answer that from LashBar's numbers alone — it comes down to how its investment, earnings, litigation and franchisee churn stack up against beauty & personal care peers, which is what the full report is for. Our read on this filing is medium risk, stated free above. For $99 you get the figures driving that read, the actual Item 19 earnings (absent from this FDD — and how unusual that is for the category), where every figure ranks against peers, and the specific questions to ask the franchisor before you sign.

Decide with the numbers — $99

A LashBar franchise is a $202,170 – $294,670 decision you make once, on a ten-year agreement, usually with a personal guarantee behind it. For $99 you get an independent read of the document that decides it: what the absent Item 19 earnings imply, and how unusual that absence is for the category, every figure ranked against beauty & personal care peers, the litigation split into franchisee and corporate matters, the churn behind the outlet count — and the questions to put to the franchisor before you sign. If it tells you nothing new, reply within 14 days and we'll refund it.
