• Clear teaching on camera

Startup costs are typically around £100 to £600, depending on your camera set-up and the kits you prepare. Monthly revenue is typically estimated at around £150 to £1,200, depending on how many live classes you run and how many students join.

Check whether public liability insurance is worth having if you post kits or run live events. Use only natural henna paste, never 'black henna'. Check labelling and allergy information for posted cones, consumer rules on refunds and distance sales, and HMRC sole trader registration.

You need confident, practised henna design, clear teaching on camera, basic video call and camera set-up, and simple packing and posting if you send kits. The estimate is at least around 4 hours a week, depending on your class schedule.
