General guidance, not professional advice
The information published on BeautyKiln (beautykiln.co.uk) is provided for general informational purposes only. It is not intended to constitute, and should not be relied upon as, professional advice of any kind including but not limited to:
- Legal advice — including employment law, contract law, and regulatory compliance
- Tax advice — including self-assessment, VAT, NI and HMRC obligations
- Financial advice — including pricing, pensions, business structures, and insurance
- Health and safety advice — including COSHH, risk assessments, and workplace safety
- Medical advice — including pregnancy, occupational health, and chemical exposure
- Regulatory guidance — including licensing, local authority requirements, and data protection
Always seek professional advice
Before making any decisions based on the information on this site, you should consult a qualified professional (such as an accountant, solicitor, insurance broker, or health and safety consultant) who can advise on your specific circumstances.
Mental health content
Our mental health and wellbeing guides are for signposting only. They are not a substitute for professional mental health support. If you are in crisis, call Samaritans on 116 123 (free, 24/7) or text SHOUT to 85258.
Accuracy
We make every effort to keep our content accurate and up to date. However, legislation, tax rules, and regulations change frequently. We cannot guarantee that all information is current at the time you read it. Each guide displays a "Last reviewed" date for transparency. Where figures are date-stamped (e.g. "2025–26 rates"), check for updates if you are reading after that period.
Templates and generated documents
The templates in our Document Hub and documents created by our builders are starting points, not finished legal documents. They may not be suitable for your specific business, contract or situation. For higher-value work (wedding contracts, employment contracts, commercial leases), always get a solicitor or specialist to review your documents before you use them.
Limitation of liability
To the fullest extent permitted by law, FTJ Designs (trading as BeautyKiln) accepts no liability for any loss or damage arising from the use of, or reliance on, the information provided on this website. Nothing in this disclaimer excludes liability for death or personal injury caused by negligence, fraud, or anything else that cannot be excluded by law.
External links
This site may contain links to external websites. We are not responsible for the content, accuracy, or availability of those sites. Phone numbers, URLs and contact details are provided in good faith but may change.
In plain English
We built BeautyKiln because self-employed beauty workers deserve access to clear information about their rights, without having to pay £300 a year for a membership or hire a solicitor just to understand the basics.
But we're not your solicitor, your accountant, or your insurance broker. Use this site to get informed, then get proper advice when the stakes are real.
That's what we'd do — and it's what we'd tell a friend to do.
