Hairdressing and Skin Penetration

Environmental Health Officers manage the registration and inspection of skin penetration and hairdressing premises. We are able to provide guidance to new and existing operators on applying the Skin Penetration Regulations and Code of Practice and the Hairdressing Establishment Regulations.

If you are thinking about opening or renovating an existing  hairdressing or skin penetration establishment including acupuncture, piercing, tattooing, waxing and other beauty treatments please refer to the below guidelines.

All hairdressing or skin penetration businesses  must be approved as a Health Related Premise and application is required using the form below.
