Estimates for illustration; actual numbers vary.

Source: LocaliQ, Facebook advertising benchmarks for 2026, Beauty and Personal Care, lead campaigns. For comparison, the all-industry lead average on the same page is $1.80 CPC, 8.54% conversion and $27.39 per lead. The page does not describe sample size or methodology, so treat these as directional.

Worked example (assumption)

Assume an average first-visit ticket of $90 and that 1 in 3 leads books. At the benchmark $50.91 per lead, that is roughly $153 per booked client. If a new client is worth $90 on the first visit and you expect 4 visits in a year, lifetime revenue is $360, so the ad can pay back within the year. If you expect only 1 visit, it loses money. The decision hinges on repeat visits, not on the ad.

Decision guidance

  • Run a lead or booking-focused campaign, not post boosts, if your goal is appointments.
  • Set a stop rule before you start: for example, pause if cost per booked client exceeds half of expected first-year revenue.
  • Fix your booking path first. A $2.97 click that lands on a slow page is wasted.
