Self Employed Nail Technician’s Contract Template

In many businesses, particularly those associated with hair and beauty, chair rental contracts whereby the hairdresser or therapist is self employed and pays a fee to a salon in order to use their premises and equipment are popular.

This Self Employed Nail Technician’s (Chair Rental) Contract is designed for use by self-employed nail technicians in order to use the equipment and premises of a salon.

This document is also available at Chair Rental Agreements
Designed to be compliant with IR35, this contract aims to ensure that the technician is treated only as a self-employed individual and is never deemed to be employed by the salon. Whilst the relationship between the technician and the salon must also function appropriately outside of the wording of the contract (and many don’t); a carefully worded contract ensuring the technician’s independence is a key starting point.

Under the terms of this Self Employed Nail Technician’s Contract payment to the salon takes the form of a standard fee plus a percentage of the technician’s takings. Optional clauses in this contract also allow the technician to provide services to the salon’s own clients. In this case, the clients would pay money directly to the salon with the salon then paying a percentage to the technician.

The contract is written in such a way that there is a clear distinction between the technician’s clients and the salon’s clients. In addition, the technician is prevented from soliciting the salon’s clients. Optional elements within the contract allow this provision to be ‘softened’ or ‘toughened’ as appropriate.

Optional phrases / clauses are enclosed in square brackets. These should be read carefully and selected so as to be compatible with one another. Unused options should be removed from the document.
