Hair and beauty styling at home in Peachtree City

When a stylist comes to your Peachtree City home, your house is a temporary work site, not a business location, under the city's occupation tax rules. The city asks licensed trades to show a current state license before it registers a business based in town, but a stylist based elsewhere may not go through that step here, so ask about their license yourself before the appointment.

Seeing clients in your own Peachtree City home instead makes it a home occupation. The chair, dryers and products stay inside, nothing about the business may show from the street or the neighbors' yards, customers park off the street, and no one but family who live with you works there.

A traveling stylist in Peachtree City brings the chair to a client's home rather than to a park or parking lot, since the code bars running a business on city land.
