dailymail.co.uk

Hairdressers and salon owners protested in Westminster against proposed tax reforms by Labour's Rachel Reeves. They demand a 10% tax on services and 20% on goods to address economic challenges facing their industry. The protest, described as the largest in the sector's history, featured participants in black uniforms and cutting gowns. They performed haircuts in Parliament Square while chanting slogans like "save our salons." Industry representatives warn that without tax reform, many businesses may struggle to survive, leading to a significant decline in employment and apprenticeships by 2027.
