Professional Bodies

When choosing a beauty professional it can be reassuring to know that they work to certain standards of good practice as a professional, as you will be placing a huge amount of trust in them. Not all qualified beauty professionals are members of a professional body, however being a member means a beauty professional has met certain requirements set by their member organisation.

All professional bodies differ in their requirements for membership. Beauty Professionals who are a member of a professional body will make this clear on their profile.

Professional bodies include:

BABTAC - British Association of Beauty Therapy and Cosmetology

BIAE - British Institute and Association of Electrolysis

Here at Beauty Resource we recognise the value of being a member of a professional body, and for those of you who are wary about visiting a beauty professional we would suggest choosing a beauty professional on our site who is a member of a professional body. This way you know they are part of an organisation that offers a code of ethics.
