Does A1 useage include beauty?

[ajshard]

Probably getting ideas about my station but have seen a premises that looks great but it's useage is A1, have searched the net but cant find anywhere that lists the categories, does anyone know if this would cover a salon.

Thanks

Hi,

Seek advice from your council or a solicitor, I 'think' a salon needs a sui [SIZE=-1]generis classification.

You will need to check with your council as it varies from council to council as I found when I was opening my salon.

Where I live, beauty is in a miscelaneous category which means if I took on a shop with A1 consent, I would need change of use.
It's a bit annoying as hairdressing comes under A1, yet beauty does not.

As it happens, I made the front of my salon hairdressing & I have beauty out the back which means I didnt need to get change of use.

Good luck
