Open Regulations for the nail industry

Created by Zoe lavender
Closes on

We are calling on the UK Government to introduce a national licensing and regulatory framework for the nail industry to protect clients, support legitimate nail professionals and raise standards across the sector.

Nail professionals work with chemicals, e-files, tools and products that require appropriate training, hygiene and safe handling. While existing health and safety laws apply, we believe the industry needs clearer, consistent standards and stronger oversight to help protect the public.

Many professionals in the industry believe that clients deserve to feel safe, professionals deserve a level playing field, and businesses that invest in education, hygiene and safe practice should be supported.
