Renting a hairdressing room in London: what to know

Who uses hairdressing rooms

Self-employed hairdressers, stylists, colourists, barbers, afro and textured hair specialists and hair extension specialists.

What a good hairdressing room needs

  • A styling chair
  • A large mirror
  • A backwash basin with hot water
  • Bright lighting
  • Power points for dryers and tools
  • A trolley
  • Storage
  • Ventilation for colour and chemical treatments

Licences and registration

Hairdressers in the UK don't need a licence to practise, and the premises don't usually need a special treatment licence for hairdressing. You can choose to register with the Hair Council. You should have public liability insurance.

Hourly, daily or monthly?

Book a day at a time while you build your column, then take regular days or a monthly room once your clients rebook every few weeks.

Tips before you book

  • Check there's a backwash and hot water.
  • Check the mirror and lighting.
  • Ask whether you can store your products between bookings.
