Wow Eloise that's amazing if I had the room that's what I would want it to look like. I only have space for 1 section. Also trying to see where I can hide a backwash lol a friend had one built into the end of her kitchen and had one if those roller shutters that came over it so it was hidden...

Hi everyone I haven't been on here in a long time but thought this be the best place to turn. I'm interested in your hair salon set ups in your homes. We are having a side extension (was a garage) it will be a through room running off our kitchen. So a room at the front that will be mainly a...

Thanks everyone it does seem a very taboo subject, most people say its not enforceable, I have spoken to her again about it and voiced my concerns (brave for me as I'm not very confrontational!) and she has said that it is more about clients and that I can take withe what I bought but Not any of...

Thanks everyone for your replys, the only thing is the contract has been drawn up by a solicitor I'm guessing this is enforceable, it's forbids me to seek work anywhere that could be competition or of similar intrest to the company also any other company that has had dealings with the salon.

They want me to sign contract so I take it I would need to agree to sign it. It is for 6 months but what would I do for 6 months if ever it did occur? Thanks for your reply x

Like it says above I'm just reading the contract to a new job I am meant to start on Monday and the radius for if I was to leave is 10 miles that I can't work in, that covers most of my town! Is this the norm now? Starting to feel a little sick now! :(

Im sure a salon by me has got a sort of sign thats like a box around the shutters if that makes any sense looks very tidy. X

totally agree, specialising in something is only good if your not going to cause your client to go to another salon For a simple treatment you don't offer but would fit nicely with something you do do just because you didn't enjoy it that much. That client may think its easier to stay with the...

I'm a self employed hairdresser and as far as I'm aware I have to take my own money and have a little cash box and I have my own appointment book, this wasn't always the case in the previous salon I worked in. But have been told it is best to be as independent as possible. As for supplying and...

Ahh thankyou for this I was starting to wonder, it's just that when I'm reading other people's posts they are always going on about posting on things on Facebook, listing them selves on google and yell and I haven't got a clue how you do it all and as you say if it's any good, I've don't a few...

Thanks for that I will check it out when I get home Has anyone else got any tips or know anything else? :) x

Hey peeps, I've noticed quite a lot you all saying that you have free listings, advertise on free sites, community pages, google listings and yell stuff, I'm trying to advertise my self and just don't know where to start And don't know where to find any of these places I can advertise for free...

Wow reading this makes me realise it's not just me that has freaked out recently, I've been self employed since march 2011 and was doing really well unfortunately things went A bit pear shaped in the salon I was working and had to move, since I've been a big mess and Very scared mainly of money...

I also have an amazing alternative to racoon, came across it by accident but was pleasantly surprised who it was and now will not be going back lol. Pm me if you want to know what I use. I'm sure they will give you the same fantastic offer I had xx

Hey sorry to but in but came across this post, I use keratin revolution and to be honest have not had any problems other than teething issues on first use. Which to be honest was us overloading hair with product as apparently you are only ment to use 50 ml dab at root and comb down after I tried...

Have read your last post. This is awful, I can't believe and don't think that the reasons they are giving you for not getting on to the course are valid or legal! Discrimination comes to mind. But I have to say I had difficulty getting on to my level 3 as when I did it you had to be qualified...

We must all be close then as it was in my home town today too :) x

Thankyou for this I am really struggling with my anxiety and depression right now and have done for many years but when things get tough I fold :( this is why I'm worried that self employed may not be the thing for me right now while I have the pressures of buying a house. I'm beating my self up...
