Put together with input from the NHBF and other sector groups, this guidance is especially useful for those working under the popular ‘rent a chair’ model — where professionals pay a fee or a percentage of their earnings to use a chair or space in a salon, barbershop or clinic.

“ The new resources, will be valuable for salon, barbershop and clinic business owners, and professionals across our diverse sector. As with any guidance, there are naturally opportunities for continued refinement to reflect the full breadth of business models in our sector, particularly VAT exemptions for some beauty/ wellbeing treatments, ”
– Caroline Larissey, Chief Executive of the NHBF.

The guidance includes practical, easy-to-follow information about common working setups, along with real-life examples. It also explains how to use HMRC’s Check Employment Status for Tax (CEST) tool to figure out someone’s tax status — whether that’s as an employee or a self-employed business owner.

“ Whether you’re a salon owner with staff or someone who rents out chairs in your premises, this guidance will help you understand your obligations, so you can get your tax right first time,” – Kelvin Shorte, Deputy Director, Taskforces & Specialist Compliance at HMRC.

The NHBF will continue working with HMRC to make sure the guidance reflects the reality of how our industry works and supports everyone in meeting their responsibilities with confidence.

“When you have learned to colour through the lens of one system, then it can be difficult to adapt to a new one with confidence. For example, you might question formulations or second-guess your results. This can really shake your flow behind the chair,” – Sarah Spiers, Chaulk Education Founder.

Colour Meltdown

It is very common for most Colourists to be trained with a single colour brand system, learning its tonal families, numbering logic, and formulation techniques. However, when a Colourist moves to another salon, experiments with a new product, or even faces a discontinued favourite, then that product-specific knowledge may not always apply.

This moment, when product behaviour no longer matches muscle memory, is what Sarah refers to as a ‘Colour Meltdown’, and with the right approach, this can be avoided. This is where Chaulk Education comes in, a brand-neutral colour education platform which enables colourists to reconnect and understand the science behind their work. Sarah has termed this philosophy ‘The Science of Hair’, and from porosity and pigment to light behaviour and alkaliser chemistry, this philosophy goes way beyond technique and gives colourists the tools to understand why colour behaves the way it does.

“When you understand what’s happening inside the hair fibre, and how colour interacts with it, then you’re not thrown off when the product changes. You can read the label, ask the right questions and adjust with confidence,” – Sarah.

Forward-Thinking Colouring

Chaulk education is founded on the principle that no Colourist can achieve consistently excellent bespoke results without understanding how the hair behaves at a structural level. Chaulk is committed to providing the most precise information when analysing hair types, emphasising that colour work should always be based on knowledge, especially when it comes to high-stake services such as colour corrections, where no Colourist should ever be ‘winging it’.

Become a Colour Master

In an industry where colour education is often filtered through brand messaging, Chaulk’s signature course specifically supports Colourists working across systems, helping to gain clarity with brand transitions. It’s a truly unique approach to colour education

Currently touring six cities across the UK, the two-day immersive course combines technical theory with hands-on experimentation. Colourists explore colour formulations from the inside out, covering texture science, light theory, pigment structure, and product interaction in a creative, supportive setting.

The tour is set to reach six UK locations throughout 2025, including Guernsey, London, Glasgow, Jersey, Manchester, and Cardiff. For more information or to attend, please visit – Become a Colour Master

“I love, and have been loving, Spectrum One Hair Extensions and everything they stand for! The quality of the hair is just exceptional, and after many years of trying different brands, I’ve finally found a
brand that stays true to what they say they’re going to deliver, every time. The hair doesn’t shed and
it maintains its color beautifully, which are the top two things I need for my clients. Whether it’s the
nanos, injection-style tapes, slimline tapes, or genius wefts, there’s something for everyone, catering
to every need and style. What makes Spectrum One even more special is Katy’s incredible dedication
and passion for the brand. Her commitment to quality and innovation is evident in every product,
and it’s inspiring to see how much she invests in ensuring her customers receive the best. I genuinely
couldn’t recommend Spectrum One more; it’s a game changer in every way and I’m thrilled to start
this journey with them,” – Elliot.

Jo’s approach blends mindset coaching, energy work, and neuroscience-based leadership tools to support emotional wellbeing, improve team dynamics, and reigniting creativity. Designed to help teams thrive in today’s fast-paced professional environments.

“I really believe it’s time we talk more about how to manage energy in the workplace. We spend more time at work and with our teams than with our closest friends and family, and our energy speaks long before we say a word. People form an impression of us within seconds, often before we’ve even spoken. That matters. After working with thousands of leaders, business owners, and incredibly influential creatives, I can say this with confidence: it doesn’t matter how much money someone makes or how good they are at their job. If they don’t feel good on the inside, they can’t show up as their best self. My work focuses on helping people do exactly that. I work with creatives, leaders, and entrepreneurs to redefine what success means to them and build lives and businesses that truly light them up without burning out in the process. I blend coaching, energy work, and neuroscience-based tools to help them unlock their next level emotionally, energetically, and professionally,”- Jo.

A vital toolkit for future-fit organisations. Whether it’s creative burnout, poor communication, lack of trust, or low confidence, each session is tailored to the needs of the team.

Core Workshop Areas

• Workplace Wellbeing & Emotional Regulation – Tools like EFT tapping, breathwork, and energy resets to manage stress.
• Values & Culture Alignment – Bridging personal purpose and brand mission to inspire intrinsic motivation.
• Positive Leadership & Communication – Building trust through empathy, clarity, and confidence.
• Safe, High-Vibe Workspaces – Fostering psychological safety and creativity in team settings.
• Team Building & Conflict Resolution – Enhancing collaboration and gratitude within teams.
• Behavioural Shifts & Resilience – Promoting accountability, self-awareness, and sustainable performance.
