Insurance for Hairdressers
£1m Public Liability Insurance included as standard.
Protect your tools and business equipment with a range of optional extras.
What is Insurance for Hairdressers?
Self-employed, mobile or running your own business, Churchill Expert can arrange cover tailored to suit your business needs. Hairdressers and barbers are exposed to a number of daily risks especially when it comes to using chemical products and providing a service to members of the public.
Even with a loyal number of clients, your customer base is continuously growing, inevitably increasing the chance of a costly claim. Accidental damage or injury caused by your work could result in a customer deciding to sue and without the right level of cover, your business finances could be cut short.
That's why Public Liability Insurance is your top priority when it comes to protecting against financial risks while working with members of the public. Churchill Expert can arrange Public Liability Insurance with NIG who will cover £1m of the compensation claim as standard, with the option to increase this to £10m when you take out a quote. You'll also gain access to a 24/7 legal helpline once insured.
