Hello
I qualified as a hairdresser in Canada many years ago. I worked as a hairdresser in Canada for several years and when I moved back to U.K. (I am English born just raised in Canada) I worked as a barber in a top barbershop. I am now looking to start up mobile. I don't want to do any colours or other services , just see if I can start something for men's/children's cuts at their home. Over the years I seem to have lost my offical paperwork from Canada to say I have qualified as a hairdresser. Do I need to have this in order to work cutting hair? It would be a nightmare to source the information from Canada. Is there any legal requirement to prove you are qualified to cut people's hair? I do want to do this the "proper" way and register with HMRC etc but if anyone asked me to produce a licence I would be stuffed. Any advice welcome.
