Employed and Self Employed

Options
Hi!

I've been thinking about starting up a small side business to go alongside my full time job. I' currently a Trainee Electrical Engineer, but I used to be a hairdresser, so I want to start up being self employed on the side doing hairdressing, and wedding/prom hair and possibly make up but im not sure how tricky it will be. From what I read online, my full time employer will continue to tax me as usual, but then I pay full tax on my self-employed earning. Can anyone clarify, or explain better what I need to do or how hard it will be?
