Professional Cosmetology Liability Insurance is an Investment Every Beauty Pro Should Make
If you are a practicing cosmetology professional in the state of Minnesota, having the appropriate liability insurance coverage is just as important as being able to consistently book clients. Cosmetology covers a wide range of services pertaining to the treatment of hair, skin, and nails, and one of the unfortunate realities of the cosmetology profession is that accidents can and do happen. The topic of insurance for cosmetologists in Minnesota is not always fun to discuss, but it is an absolute necessity in order to protect your livelihood from various lawsuits that may be brought against you by disgruntled clients.
In Minnesota, cosmetology services are offered in various settings, helping to increase client convenience and growth opportunities. With NACAMS, you're covered anywhere you offer your services including spas, beauty salons, and even at home.

When you think cosmetology, what is the first thing that pops into your mind? Is it hairdressing? Nail techs? Make-up artists? The truth is, all of these professions fall into the same category. Even barbers, beauticians, and estheticians all practice under a cosmetology license. In Minnesota, you need 1550 hours, passing scores on the state board and licensing exams, and licensing renewal every three years.
Each professional cosmetologist should carry personal insurance for their work. Regardless if you work for a salon, a spa, a specialized medical spa, or for yourself, it is essential to have the proper insurance coverage to protect yourself, as well as your financial assets. Carrying cosmetology insurance can also protect the reputation of your business and your good name.
General Liability
This insurance covers “physical accidents” which may occur. If one of your clients were to slip and fall, if someone was late for his or her appointment, for example, and tripped on the way into your building, this type of insurance would cover it. While it’s hard to say whether or not something like this would ever happen, if it did, you’d be covered if you had an individual policy with general coverage.
Product Liability
As cosmetologists, you use a wide variety of chemicals with your trade. Not only that, but you also use these chemicals along with certain equipment (irons, blowdryers, etc). Whether it is faulty piece of equipment or a chemical that causes an allergic reaction, you need to look for insurance that includes product liability, as well, in the event that one of your products does indeed cause harm.
Stay Protected With An Occurrence-Form Policy
Occurrence Form (also known as Occurrence Based) is the industry-preferred policy type because you are covered for any incident that happened while your policy was in effect, even if your policy has expired.
Other providers sell Claims-made policies, where any claim filed after the policy expires will not be covered. No matter if you choose NACAM or not, definitely make sure your provider has "occurrence form" coverage.

Nancy
Love this Company! Very easy to move around and shop for the best policy, not to mention the best price!
Suzanne
While my customers do sign a liability waiver on behalf of the business where I am an employee, I'd prefer to have this backbone behind me protecting my person and any damage an unruly person could assert. Thank you NACAMS for protecting me professionally!

Very easy and straightforward. Easy to locate my modalities on the website to ensure they are covered.
