Important disclaimer:

It is the sole responsibility of the student to check insurance requirements, council regulations and any other legal or professional criteria of your country before enrolling onto our courses and offering treatments to the public.

BeautyBoo UK, including our academy, accepts no liability if a student is unable to obtain insurance or does not meet external requirements following completion of our courses and especially our theory-only courses.

Our theory-only courses will provide you with an accredited theory certification only and these do not qualify you to perform treatments unless your chosen insurance provider and local authority accepts theory-only training for that specific service and are provided to enhance knowledge and not practical skills.
