Is Doing Hair at Home Illegal?

Due to the Coronavirus, nothing is for certain and the outcomes may vary & depend on the current outbreak situation.

At the moment, hairdressers or barbers cannot work from home, and here’s why!

The government’s social distancing instructions prevent beauticians, nail-care & hair-care professionals from working further.

Doing someone’s hair outside of a salon involves having people who aren’t members of your household enter your home, which means the possibility of spreading the virus, which further means not practicing social distancing.

However, you should stay updated through social media and continue obeying the rules.

Everything can change within a week, so it is not safe to give you proper answers. Also, every country & city is different, so it is hard to give just one clear answer.

Five months ago, hairdressers were allowed to work from home, and no law was stopping them from providing their services as freelance artists.

This may, unfortunately, change in the following 5-month period.
