    Hello Sarah.
    First, about txt speak in your message. It's not popular here in Boards and if you could refrain from using it in the future you'll be making everyone happier.
    Secondly, welcome. :)

    I'll leave this thread open for a while just to see if you get any feedback. If you don't get any helpful advice I'll see if there is a better forum for you.

    Hey Sarah, to be honest we cant tell you or even guess how much your rent would be, you dont say where the salon is based?

    Equipment wise if they arent going to kit it out for you then you will need chairs, desk for doing the nails and all your own products if you are renting the space off them.

    To be honest Im not sure about social welfare giving out grants to people wanting to set up a business, they didnt in 2008 when I set up my business.

    Tax wise you will need to see an accountant for this part.

    Best of luck whatever you decide.

    Hi Sarah, congratulations on the beauty room. Well you know about your product line if only it was as easy as that. Ill try give you some advice.

    First of all to check what you should be paying in rent, check with other salons/beauty rooms maybe some agents and try get an overview of rental rates. You will also need to check what do you get for the rent, will it include utilities such a electricity and water, what about bin rates ect.

    You will then need to get Insurance. AIT http://www.aitireland.com/ are good and resonable with therapists rents, this will cover you for the treatments you will be preforming, you will need to enquire about public liability insurance too.

    You will then need to register your business for tax purposes, your local revenue office will tell you everything you need to do there.

    Also enquire with FAS i think they do give some type of grant to new businesses setting up.

    A good forum i use is http://www.salongeek.com/ it's good for advice and questions like this.
    Hope that is some help.
