If you run a salon or own a hairdressing business of any kind, chances are we can help you find a hairdressing insurance policy. Read more to find out how:
The contents of your shop, specialist equipment and stock you carry around with you deserve proper protection. Not only are they your livelihood but a complete loss from fire or theft could be devastating. We offer contents cover in amounts set by you which can be set to increase with seasonal changes. If you own your own building we can provide building insurance too.
Hairdressing isn't exactly fire juggling, it’s the not riskiest business out there, but that doesn't mean you shouldn't be concerned with getting hairdresser public liability insurance. Any accident to a customer or member of public caused as a result of your business, could leave you liable for huge compensation claims. This is when a specialist policy, which is designed for unique risks specific to an industry, can make more sense.
Business insurance is more than just liability and stock insurance though. We want to understand your business to provide protection that fits you and offer a range of optional covers based on your risks. We can discuss covers for things like, if you keep large amounts of cash on your premises, personal injury cover for sole traders and business interruption insurance to protect your profits.
Our hairdressing policy includes cover as standard for many types of styling techniques including using cut throat razors, bleaching and eyebrow plucking etc. As a broker we can take into account your services and search our preferred list of insurers to offer the best suited policy. If you branch out into other treatments and services, visit our health and beauty insurance page for more info on what we can cover.
The claims process will differ depending on which insurer you take your policy out with but if you take out hairdressers insurance through us we will only use A-Rated insurers. So if you ever need to make a claim you can go directly to them. Of course at any time, if you are unsure or unhappy we’re still here to take your call and support you through the process.
The contact number for your insurer can be found in your policy documents. Please refer to the claims telephone number and notify the team about your claim.
