Proposed Changes to Sunbed Regulations in England: What Salon Owners Need to Know
Read updateSunbed salons face unique
compliance pressures.
Regulations are strict, inspections happen, and one gap in your records can cost you dearly.
Regulatory risk
The Sunbeds (Regulation) Act 2010, local authority licensing and insurance requirements create a complex compliance landscape that trips up salon owners every year.
Staff training gaps
Insurers and local councils expect evidence of trained staff. Without proper training records and certificates, gaps in compliance are impossible to fill retrospectively.
Scattered paperwork
Maintenance logs, client consent forms, risk assessments, UV type records. Managing these across spreadsheets, folders and bits of paper is a recipe for gaps and stress.

Refer a salon and earn £100.
Know an independent salon owner who would benefit from Sunbed Hub? Share your referral link. A referral may qualify for a £100 referral reward once the salon has paid for its initial annual membership, been approved, and completed the 14-day review. Businesses or premises under common ownership, control, management or financial connection do not qualify, even if they are separate companies or use different contact/payment details. Additional locations never create another reward.
Prove you're operating properly, before anyone asks.
Local authorities, insurers and clients increasingly expect evidence of proper training and compliance. The Sunbed Hub helps you build that evidence record systematically.
