Salon insurance guide
What affects salon insurance cost
No two salons are priced the same. These are the factors that usually matter most.
Main factors
- Services offered, especially chemical and advanced skin services
- Number of stations and employees
- Payroll, for workers' compensation
- Revenue and retail sales
- Location, building, and property values
- Booth renters and how they are classified
- Claims history
- Limits and deductibles chosen
Frequently asked questions
Why don't you list prices?
Pricing depends on underwriting each business, so averages can mislead.
Does adding services raise the price?
Advanced services such as chemical peels or lash extensions can change pricing.
Do claims matter?
Prior claims are a major factor.
