What is Beauty Insurance?
Being a beauty therapist means working closely with your clients.
From a nasty reaction to a treatment to a stained carpet in a customer’s home, everyday accidents can have serious consequences for you and your business.
Most clients try to understand when things go wrong, but it only takes one compensation claim to put your business under serious strain.
You can get covered for most claims with Treatment Liability Cover, which you can add onto your Public Liability Insurance policy as an optional extra.
You can tailor your cover to suit your business and get insurance that’s there when you need it.
What does Beauty Insurance cover?
Business Insurance for beauticians starts with standard Public Liability cover, and you can add a range of optional extras to tailor your policy to exactly what you need.
Public Liability Insurance
Public Liability Insurance isn’t legally compulsory for beauticians, but most people in customer-facing industries think it’s essential, and sometimes contracts require it.
As well as giving you peace of mind and security for your business, it also helps you present a professional image.
Having Public Liability Insurance means you’re covered if you or an employee accidentally injures a customer or damages their property.
Public Liability Insurance offers you up to £1 million of cover as standard, with the option of increasing it to up to £10 million.

Employers’ Liability Insurance
Employers' Liability Insurance is a legal requirement under the Employers’ Liability Act 1969 if you employ staff or apprentices.
It covers you if one of your employees is injured or becomes ill while they’re working for your business.
Employers' Liability Insurance is provided as standard if you have employees.
