Frequently Asked Questions

How do I find a reliable hairdresser in Central London who specialises in colour?

Check reviews and ask for a consultation to discuss your hair goals. Look for stylists with specific colour expertise—balayage, toning, or corrective work. Many Central London stylists build reputations through before-and-after portfolios on Instagram and word-of-mouth referrals from satisfied clients.

What does a cut and blow-dry typically cost in Central London salons?

Prices vary widely depending on location and stylist seniority. West End and Mayfair salons typically charge £40–£80 for a cut, with blow-dries from £20–£50. Soho and Fitzrovia salons often sit in the mid-range. Premium specialists command higher rates for complex colour or cutting techniques.

How can I manage my salon's invoicing and tax as a self-employed hairdresser?

Use dedicated accounting software like BizHub365 to invoice clients, track product costs, and log daily takings. It automates VAT and self-assessment filing, keeping you HMRC-compliant. Mobile receipt scanning captures expenses instantly, and profit dashboards show exactly what you're earning.

Do I need to charge VAT if I'm a hairdresser working from a salon chair?

If you're VAT-registered (usually above £90,000 annual turnover), yes. Most salon chairs are operated on a commission or rental basis, so check your arrangement. BizHub365 automatically calculates VAT on invoices and tracks your liability quarterly.
