What trademark class is a hair salon in?

Most hair salons register in class 44. Class 44 covers health, beauty & agriculture. You only ever register the classes that match what you actually sell.

Do hair salons need to register in more than one class?

Often, yes. A trademark is only protected in the classes you register, and you pay a fee for each one. Hair salons usually start with class 44, then add others as the business grows.

How much does it cost a hair salon to register a trademark?

Filing direct with the UK IPO costs £205 for the first class and £60 for each additional class, so a hair salon covering class 44 pays about £205. The fee isn't refunded if your mark is refused — which is why checking the name is free first matters.

Hairdressing and barbering sit in the health-and-beauty services class. A salon with its own haircare line adds the cosmetics class, and retail covers selling those products.

Before you file in class 44, make sure the name is free. If it's already taken, your application can be refused — and the £205 IPO fee isn't refunded. Checking takes seconds and costs nothing.
