Newscout / Industries / Barbers & Hairdressers
Find newly registered barbers and hairdressers in the UK.
New barbershops and hair salons open every week across the UK. Most owners are booking their first clients, setting up Instagram and deciding how people will find them, which is exactly when a marketer is useful.
With every barber lead
- Company name and number
- Date registered, to the day
- Owner and director names from Companies House
- Registered address and SIC code
- A phone number, email and website where we can match them
- A ready-made WhatsApp link and first message
Numbers are matched from public listings, not guaranteed. Brand-new companies often add one in their first month or two.

Barbers & Hairdressers: questions
Which SIC code is used for barbers in the UK?
Barbers and hairdressers usually register under SIC code 96020, Hairdressing and other beauty treatment. Beauty salons and nail bars use the same code, so the lead finder also looks at the company name and listings to tell them apart.
Will I get phone numbers for new barbers?
For many of them, yes. Numbers come from public listings and the company's own website, and we only keep one when it clearly belongs to that company. Brand-new barbers often have no public number for the first few weeks, and many add one within a month or two, so the share grows as your list ages. Book a call and we'll show you current figures for your area.
When should I contact a new barbershop?
Shops under two weeks old often have no public number yet. Many add one in the first month or two, so working the list again after a few weeks usually finds more numbers.
