Salon owners\ Barber shop owners....Have a question?

Im going to cosmetology school to get licensed. I plan on opening my own Shop when I finished.I have the capital(reserves) to get started and secure my lease and equipment.


Besides MY license, What do I need to obtain from a city to open by new salon. Never opened a business before.


Thank you in advanceSalon owners\ Barber shop owners....Have a question?
You will need a business license to operate a salon, a retail/resale license to sell products/supplies, and insurance to protect your equipment, building and also against lawsuits/liability. Also, you will need to establish a merchant account with a bank in order to be able to accept credit card payments.





Finally, consider having a website in which you can post bio's on all your employees, their specialties, a menu of services %26amp; prices, hours of operation, etc. Some salon websites even allow clients to book their appointments on line.Salon owners\ Barber shop owners....Have a question?
Actually you should work under someone as a (apprentice) that owns a salon just until you get your license... then that way you would have some experience in running a salon and building your client tell, and you can also get a certificate from the department in licensing.
