Need info on how to open a hairdressers/beauty parlour?

My friend and I were having a discussion on opening up a business of our own and we've decided on hairdressing/beauty parlour. The thing is I know how to run a small shop (not a hairdressers) and she knows how to tatoo and cut hair (a couple of yrs exp), but both of us don't know much about anything else in between. Could anybody tell us if we need any permits/certificates or applications that we need to fill in order to achieve our dreams? Any info would be gratefully appreciated.Need info on how to open a hairdressers/beauty parlour?
Buying or leasing a shop already existing is the best way to ensure you meet most regulations. You do require a license to operate the business, and also a license to operate a hairdressing studio.





The tattooing is tricky because 90% of the clientele you want will not be the clientele for your hair studio, and also keep in mind many localities will not issue licenses to operate tattoo studios easily. They see them as not family oriented and attracting a bad crowd.





I would sit down with the folks at the SBA (small business assoc.) because they actually have mentoring programs for just your situation, and they will help you in every step of the way.Need info on how to open a hairdressers/beauty parlour?
have a chat with your local council
speak to your local council and citizes advice about insurance and licenses that are required as they will be able to tell you exactly what you need
