What the rules say
There's no blanket licence covering nails, lashes, waxing, facials or make-up application across the UK. The genuine local nuance: certain London boroughs treat nail treatments as a licensable 'special treatment' at fixed premises, with a confirmed mobile exemption for nails in some of them -- but this isn't confirmed to cover every treatment in your menu, so check your own council treatment by treatment. Higher-risk treatments like semi-permanent make-up, chemical peels, electrolysis and laser/IPL are excluded from this guide entirely and need separate research. Cosmetic products used must be compliant and properly labelled. DBS isn't triggered by beauty treatments themselves, only by personal-care assistance tied to age, illness or disability. Public liability insurance isn't a legal must for a sole trader, but employers' liability insurance becomes a legal requirement once you take on any staff.
