In any Russian city, one of the options for a profitable business is to open a salon in which upscale procedures will be provided to create beauty and maintain its condition.
What documents are needed to open a beauty salon? Next, we consider a complete list of those, as well as some recommendations of specialists regarding their receipt.
Normative base
Currently, the Russian Federation has a whole list of regulatory documents for beauty salons, the provisions of which must be strictly observed by their owners. Among those are:
- Government Decisions (No. 584, No. 1025);
- laws in force at the federal level ("On the sanitary welfare of the population", "On the protection of consumer rights", "On the protection of the rights of entrepreneurs");
- order of the Ministry of Health and Social Development No. 302;
- individual requirements and rules established by Rospotrebnadzor;
- some regulations issued by authorities in individual cities.
List of steps to open a beauty salon
Before you begin to consider the list of documents for a beauty salon, you need to consider that only a person registered as an individual entrepreneur or LLC is entitled to obtain a license to open the structure in question. In the event that such a procedure has not been carried out before, its completion will be the first step towards opening your own business of the type in question.
After registering as a legal entity, it is necessary to find a suitable area for the future business and agree on its rental for a long period (or register ownership for any reason).
The next step is to contact the authorities conducting fire and sanitary surveillance. They must check the premises and indicate their compliance with the established requirements. After eliminating all the shortcomings, authorities must issue appropriate permits to conduct work.
Basic package of papers
In order to open their own beauty salon, the entrepreneur should prepare certain documents, the list of which must necessarily include:
- constituent documents (agreements, articles of association, etc.);
- written and certified decision on the formation of the company;
- acts drawn up as a result of surveys and materials;
- code numbers and cipher;
- certificate of registration of the person or extract from the register;
- diplomas, awards, certificates of masters confirming their professionalism, employees may also need work books and other documents confirming their professionalism;
- conclusions issued by the fire service and SES;
- documents proving the preparedness of the head of the future salon.
It should be noted that the presented list is considered basic. This means that in addition to the documents presented in it, for the opening of a beauty salon, you may need other papers, as well as contracts concluded with various services. Let's talk about them further.
What contracts should be concluded
In order to open your own beauty salon, an interested person will have to conclude a number of additional contracts. Among these, there must be a contract for the removal of garbage and household waste.
In the new salon, the person responsible for fire safety in the room should be appointed - a contract should also be concluded with him. It must undergo appropriate instruction, as well as special accounting books.
Particular attention should be paid to the contract that should be concluded with Rospotrebnadzor. In their recommendations, many experts note that before a visit to this state structure, it is preliminary worth concluding a contract with the sanitary-epidemiological station, which will carry out all work on a paid or free basis (by agreement). This is due to the fact that Rospotrebnadzor considers beauty salons a source of increased danger in the sanitary environment.
Obtaining a license
In some cases, the list of documents for a beauty salon includes a special license that provides the right to provide medical services that provide for intervention in the skin of the client using any technique and drugs. Moreover, such a document is necessary for salons in which the following services are provided:
- tattooing
- piercing the ears or installing piercings in any other parts of the body;
- the provision of peeling services;
- massage;
- vacuum action on the skin;
- cosmetic procedures involving pricking needles.
To obtain a license, you should contact Roszdravnadzor. At the time of contacting this organization, a person should be provided with a package of documents that will confirm:
- registration of a legal entity;
- information about the health status of employees;
- information on the presence of specialization among employees and professional skills in the provision of services to create beauty;
- the presence of narrow-profile employees in the state of the salon and confirmation of an adequate level of professional skills with them;
- compliance of equipment used for carrying out procedures with established sanitary standards.
When a license is not needed
It should be noted that in some cases a license is not required to start a new salon. This is possible only when the following services are provided:
- pedicure and manicure;
- dyeing of hair, eyebrows and eyelashes;
- makeup;
- haircut and hair styling;
- aesthetic massage;
- applying face masks.
In the event that, in parallel with the above procedures, other services are provided that provide for interfering with the skin of the client or performing any other manipulations classified as medical, then a license is required among the necessary documents for the beauty salon.
License price
How much does it cost to get a license? In the comments left by experts in the field of opening a salon business, it is noted that on average such a license costs around 50-60 thousand rubles, which most entrepreneurs consider an unreasonable fee.
Experts also note that the level of pricing policy established for granting a license directly depends on the region in which the salon is opened, as well as the degree to which the latter is prepared to carry out all planned operations for the provision of services.
List of documents for labor inspection
Particular attention should be paid to another list of documents that the labor inspection will certainly be interested in. Among the papers that may be requested by this organization are:
- personal files and cards for each employee of the salon (as part of the personal file of each employee, there must be an employment contract concluded with him, as well as documents confirming that he has specialization, experience in a particular field and undergoes all the necessary briefings);
- working documents (work schedule, staff size, employee leave schedule, vacation time sheet);
- documents confirming that the salon respects the labor protection of each employee;
- labor books of workers.
Terms of paperwork
How much time is required to collect the entire package of documents for a beauty salon? Actual practice shows that it takes on average 30 to 60 days to complete all the stages.
How can this period be shortened? In the recommendations of specialists in resolving the issue, it is often noted that if you want to save temporary resources, the interested person should contact individual companies that provide sanitary services, garbage collection and have staff who are professionally responsible for fire safety. Moreover, some sanitary services help to draw up some acts, hygiene records, and are also developing PPK.
