Hairdressers are warned to cut hair and not corners
With over 150 hairdressers within the Lisburn area TV Licensing is urging managers and owners across Lisburn to make sure their businesses are correctly licensed.
A TV Licence is required if anyone – customers or staff - watches or records TV programmes at the same time as they are shown on TV, whether on a TV, tablet, computer or any other type of equipment.

Mark Sterling, TV Licensing spokesperson said: “It’s important salon owners and managers take a few moments to review and update their licensing requirements.
“Cutting corners, rather than hair, could land the owner in court and facing a fine of up to £1,000. A TV Licence costs £145.50 and can be bought in minutes online at www.tvlicensing.co.uk/business.”
