You work with chemicals and sharp or hot tools. You cut, style, and color hair, an art that’s almost an exact science, but is unfortunately prone to slip-ups and misunderstandings. “That’s not the color I wanted!” “You cut it too short!” Frivolous lawsuits happen in the beauty industry, too, meaning clients try to hold you accountable for incidents outside your sphere of liability. One wrong move, and you could potentially damage not only a client’s appearance, but also their self-confidence. And as you know, people take both very seriously, especially when they’re coming to you as an expert in your craft.

We don’t say that to scare you—the opposite is true!
