Beauty isn't really taught at university. It's a course that doesn't go beyond college here.

Typically you would do beauty at an adult college, and the entry requirements tend to be just GCSEs. See the following as examples:

There isn't usually a course that covers both beauty and business. However, if you do beauty at Level 3 (which you should be more than eligible with GCSEs, but some courses require you to do Level 1-2 in beauty before letting you do level 3 so do check), you should be able to do a Level4/5 qualification in beauty management/business afterwards. See the following as examples:

Most of the colleges are regional and you should be within a commuting distance of. If you want to do such a course, you would need to check the local adult college within your area in the UK.
