Salon Insurance

Salon risks depend on the services performed, the products applied or sold, the people providing services, and the arrangement between the business and individual professionals. A clear submission distinguishes employees from booth renters and identifies any higher-hazard treatments.

Operations this guide may include

  • Hair cutting, coloring, and styling
  • Barber services and grooming
  • Nail services, esthetics, and skin care
  • Retail product sales and booth rental

  1. Which services and chemical treatments are offered?
  2. Are professionals employees, contractors, or booth renters?
