Factor 01

Production Capacity & Scalability

A small workshop might handle your first 100 trays, but can they handle 10,000 when your brand goes viral? Evaluate the factory's workforce scale, years in operation, and their ability to scale production without compromising quality.

Partnering with a factory-direct manufacturer like Lashvee ensures you have the infrastructure to grow from a local salon to a global brand.

Factor 02

Rigid Quality Control (QC) Systems

Consistency is the #1 complaint in the lash industry. Your manufacturer must have documented QC systems for batch traceability. This includes inspecting raw PBT fibers, monitoring curl retention under heat, and verifying base thickness.

Check if they provide a production delay checklist to ensure your orders stay on track.

Sample Testing & Specification Stability

Never skip the sample phase. Test for curl retention (does it bounce back?), taper quality, and ease of fanning. A reputable manufacturer will encourage you to test their starter lash line before committing to a bulk order.

Look for stability in curl, diameter, and length tolerance across different batches.
