Insurance Coverage for Cosmetologists
A bad haircut is not the worst thing that can happen to your client while they are in your salon.
Cosmetologists
The tools and supplies you use as a professional cosmetologist enable you to help your clients look their best. The majority of the time, these tools - scissors, makeup, nail files - make your job easier, but these same tools also have the potential to harm.

BBI is the Coverage you need
All the years of training you had to be a cosmetologist, also known as a beauty therapist, gave you the skills you need to help your clients look beautiful, whether your clients come to you or you have a mobile business and you go to them. Unfortunately, accidents will happen, no matter how much training you have and no matter where you are.
One wrong move while you are using scissors to cut your client’s hair could lead to hospital and doctor bills that you are liable for. These expenses could set you and your business back thousands, or even tens of thousands, of dollars.
This is where our online Beauty and Bodywork Insurance (BBI) policy can respond. The best way to protect yourself from the risk of unforeseen expenses is to eliminate the risk in the first place, and our goal is to provide beauticians with the most coverage at the lowest price. In addition, students receive a discount to help them as they enter their profession.
Whether you need mobile cosmetology insurance or coverage as an independent contractor in a salon, BBI has what you need.
