Starting a mobile hairdressing business in Bramble Hills? There's no single national licence, but your local council may have its own view -- alongside the genuinely unsettled question of patch testing. Here's what to check before working around East Lindsey.

What the rules say

No single licence governs mobile hairdressing across the UK -- it comes down to the individual council, and byelaw registration requirements vary from area to area, some keeping them and some not. Confirming the position with your own local authority is essential before trading. Legally, no qualification is required, though HABIA-aligned NVQ/SVQ training remains the standard clients and insurers expect, especially for chemical and colour work.
