Toby Dicker, founder of the Salon Employers Association, expressed deep distress during a Sky News interview, stating, 'It is much worse than we ever thought it could be. I am angry and sad and shell-shocked.' He further explained that the increase in employers' national insurance by 1.2 percent would profoundly impact the hairdressing industry. Dicker lamented, 'Our industry is totally done. We can't afford it,' highlighting the financial strain on businesses.
In a powerful moment of vulnerability, Dicker shed tears while discussing the implications of the national insurance hike, indicating that the situation is far beyond what industry leaders anticipated. 'This is not just a numbers game; it directly threatens the livelihoods of countless professionals,' he said.
