Well weddings are difficult , i mean i personally dont do wedding hair mobile , its one of my pet hates lol im too into my colour !
Id charge just under what my salon used to charge so prop around the £45 mark for the trial and £55 on the day.
As for starting up , you m ust let HMRC know within 3 months of first trading , i have got an accountant who does all my tax returns etc etc might be worth looking into getting one ? He sorts all mine out , all i do is write down everything i do and what i charge and i keep all reciepts of expenses etc and put them in date order for him in a folder . I aslo deduct 25% of everything i earn at the end of the week and transfer it into a seperate account to pay for my tax and NI bill at the end of the tax year , much better to be prepared rather than being hit with a massive bil in April or Jan ! hope this helped a little xxxx

Hi Gemma,
Please don't think I'm being patronising but you really need to get more salon experience before you go out on your own, I made some huge cock ups when I was your age as I had no one to ask on the spot so had to blag it, and I was working in a salon at then same time!
There's no rush to get out there on your own, I know you've got yout NVQ 2 but there no better qualification that experience, and in mine I would suggest a couple of years in a salon.
I was 21 when I went mobile, but had done 2 years at college then 3 and half years in a salon, plus about 3 years before that as a Saturday girl, I've just turned 40 and still know the latest product etc, there really is no rush hun.
