Welcome to The Hair and Barber Council’s website
Committed to mandatory registration for hairdressers and barbers, The Hair and Barber Councils’ main focus is to lobby the UK Government to achieve this goal.
As the ONLY Statutory Authority for the Hair and Barber Sector, our remit is to represent the industry at the highest level at Westminster.
With the huge increases in the cost of living we are seeing, we have been working with Government and other industry organisations, to challenge these vast increases to try and get some relief for our sector.
The future of our industry is more fragile than I can ever remember, and we desperately need to come together as an industry, working as one united voice, to challenge these and other issues.
Regulating our industry is now more important than ever before, we must take control of our own destiny as a sector and be responsible for our own future. Regulation will bring a huge amount of strength for the industry in SO many ways, so please join with us now to show your support and belief in the industry.
We have all seen the impact the pandemic has had on our High Streets, and with hair salons, barber shops and beauty salons being one of the main staples of our town centres, this decline is increasingly concerning.
We are now living in an ever-changing landscape, and we must be fit to adapt accordingly. None of us know what other challenges will face us moving forward, but we are here to support our members in anyway we can, so please do get in touch if you feel we can help at all, or you would like further information on joining the Hair and Barber Council.
Thank you,
Keith Conniford
CEO/Registrar – The Hair and Barber Council
"Getting registered is one of the most important things you can do this year. The professionalism and standard of our industry will only increase if regulation becomes
compulsory. The reputation of hairdressing is in your hands - get registered and do us all a favour."
