Making a compensation claim against a hairdresser

Unfortunately, hairdressing is not a regulated business. However, they still have a duty of care to ensure they safeguard against things going wrong and the correct safety procedures are being followed. If you have been injured or suffered damages due to the hairdresser’s negligence, you could be entitled to make a compensation claim.

How do I prove my claim?

It is important to collect as much evidence as possible if you believe an accident at the hairdressers was not your fault. After an accident, we recommend you contact our team as soon as possible, but there are other certain steps you should take and pieces of evidence you should collect which we detail below:

Take photographs of your injuries or damage to your hair.
Request that the accident be recorded on an Accident Report Form or in an Accident Book and ask for a copy of the report.
You should ensure that you receive medical attention and ensure your injuries are treated accordingly.
Record the names of your hairdresser or salon
Details of the hair products used if possible
Contact a personal injury solicitor to seek legal advice to establish if you have been wrongfully injured.
