What it costs in Southampton
Guide price: we do not yet have enough member listings to publish a reliable range for colour in Southampton. We publish this figure only when there is real data behind it.
Is it regulated?
No licence is required to perform this anywhere in the UK. Cutting, colouring and styling do not penetrate the skin or apply light, electricity, cold or heat, so they fall outside the scheme’s definition altogether rather than merely awaiting it. Qualification and insurance still matter, and no law requires either.
Basis: Section 180, Health and Care Act 2022 and the Government's consultation response of 7 August 2025, tracked in House of Commons Library briefing CBP-10331.
Questions to ask before you book
- Will you patch test me, and how long before?
- What is your policy if I have reacted to hair dye before?
- Have you corrected colour on hair like mine?
- What condition will my hair be in afterwards, honestly?

Do I need to check qualifications for colour?
Level 2 covers basic colour; Level 3 covers correction, balayage and high-lift work. Colour correction on damaged or previously boxed hair is genuinely difficult and worth asking about specifically.
