Licenses for a Nail Salon?

In most areas of the world, a nail salon comes under a specific type of license for shop-owners. You’ll need to contact your local council for advice on this important matter. You may also require treatment licenses for yourself and each of your therapists. This generally means that every member of staff that will be treating clients will also need to be qualified and licensed.
