Hairdressing and other beauty treatment

NACE code 96.02 covers the hairdressing and other beauty treatment industry, which plays a vital role in the personal care and grooming sector. This industry encompasses a wide range of services, from haircuts and styling to various beauty treatments, such as facials, manicures, and pedicures.

The key production techniques in the hairdressing and beauty treatment industry involve a combination of manual skills, specialized equipment, and a deep understanding of hair, skin, and nail care. Hairstylists utilize a variety of tools, including scissors, razors, blow dryers, and curling irons, to cut, shape, and style hair according to the client's preferences. Beauticians and aestheticians employ a range of techniques, such as cleansing, exfoliating, and applying various lotions and creams, to provide a wide array of beauty treatments. The industry also relies on the proper sterilization and maintenance of equipment to ensure the safety and hygiene of their services.

The hairdressing and beauty treatment industry requires a diverse range of inputs, including high-quality hair products (such as shampoos, conditioners, and styling products), skin care products (including cleansers, moisturizers, and serums), nail care products (such as polish, nail files, and cuticle removers), and specialized equipment (such as chairs, sinks, and sterilization devices). Additionally, the industry relies on the skills and expertise of trained professionals, including hairstylists, beauticians, and aestheticians, who undergo extensive training and education to provide their services.
