You might find that zoning ordinances prevent you from running a business in an area zoned as residential.

Yes you can... You can also use it as a house of ill repute, or maybe even a crack house. It's all up to you. Nobody's gonna stop you except "the man".

More than likely no.

Here is why. You would need to install a hair washing sink, a styling chair, carry all the necessary chemicals and dyes for hair coloring, curling, etc.

Zoning usually isn't an issue because I know people who run beauty shops from their houses, however, they are the homeowner.

Generally, No even if it isn't specificly prohibited by your lease/rental agreement, it is likely a violation of local zoning laws. Even if you have no written agreement it would be a violation of the implied terms of your contract to rent the house for use as a residence.
It isn't allowed because the landord is exposed to a much higher liability risk.

Not unless the house is zoned commercial can you use it for a business and your landlord approves it. You'd have to get a business license, otherwise if the city finds out you have a business in your home they will cite you.

If you are simply just doing hair with one chair and you're not setting up an actual salon you might get away with it but you'd still need to look into getting a business license.

As with all theings, you would need to check your lease. Most standard leases state that you are renting a house for residential use only and that no business will be run from it. Most tenants that read leases skip right over this section of the lease as they only intend to use it as a home.

If you did start a business out of the home, and the residential use clause was in the lease you would be breaking the lease and giving the landlord grounds for eviction.

The reason that this clause is in mosts leases is because ultimately the owner of the property is responsible for what happens on it. Say for example you were doing someone's hair and left the permanent solution on too long causing chemical burns. The owner of the property could be sued for allowing you to conduct the business on the property.

You'll have to check the zoning laws. Are you also going to live there?
