Styling for Success: Insurance for Texas Hair and Nail Salons
Texas’s beauty industry is a dynamic blend of artistry and entrepreneurship. Whether you own an elegant hair salon, a refined nail spa, or a full-service salon, your business faces unique risks that require thoughtful insurance protection. At Rollo Insurance, we appreciate the distinct challenges Texas salons encounter and are committed to helping you secure the right coverage to protect your business, your team, and your valued clients.
Key Risks for Texas Hair and Nail Salons
Running a salon involves managing a variety of potential liabilities:
- Slip and fall accidents happen when floors are wet or products spill, putting clients and staff at risk. Premises liability laws in Texas are important to keep in mind.
- Chemical burns and allergic reactions from hair dyes, acrylics, and other salon products require careful handling and protection.
- Infections can occur if sanitation standards slip, making cleanliness critical.
- Damage to hair or nails during treatments can lead to customer dissatisfaction and liability claims.
- Property damage to your salon space, styling stations, tools, and inventory can result from fires, spills, vandalism, or Texas’s sometimes unpredictable weather.
- Business interruption caused by events like fires or power outages can result in lost income during closures.
- Employee injuries are a risk when working with sharp tools and chemicals. Texas workers’ compensation laws apply.
- Theft and dishonesty involving cash, products, or equipment is a concern for many salons.
- Cybersecurity risks arise when handling credit card payments or storing client data.
- Advertising liability claims can stem from marketing practices or intellectual property disputes.
Essential Insurance Coverages for Your Salon
To confidently protect your business, consider these coverages:
Recommended:
- Workers compensation insurance to cover your employees’ medical expenses and lost wages if they are injured on the job.
- Commercial general liability insurance provides broad protection for bodily injury and property damage claims related to your operations. It also covers personal and advertising injury claims.
- Professional liability insurance safeguards against claims of negligence or errors in your services, such as a chemical burn or unsatisfactory treatment.
- Commercial property insurance covers damage to your salon, equipment, furniture, and inventory. Be sure the policy limits reflect the full value of your assets.
- Business interruption insurance offers financial relief if a covered event forces a temporary closure.
Additional coverages to consider:
- Cyber liability insurance protects against data breaches and cyberattacks.
- Employee dishonesty coverage protects you against losses from theft or fraud by staff.
- Umbrella insurance offers an extra layer of liability protection beyond your standard policies.
Texas-Specific Factors to Keep in Mind
Given Texas’s variable weather, it is vital to ensure your coverage includes protection from storms and power outages. Maintaining a safe and sanitary environment is not only best practice but also essential for compliance with state regulations.

Insurance Costs for Texas Salons
Insurance premiums vary depending on the size of your salon, services offered, location, and claims history. Small salons can expect to pay between $750 and $3,000 annually for basic general liability and property insurance. Adding professional liability, workers’ compensation, and other coverages will increase the premium. Obtaining a tailored quote is the best way to determine your exact cost.
