Sued for the first time after 20 years in business

Hairdresser sued for the first time after 20 years in business. Rosa’s hair salon is the trendiest in the neighborhood. The quality of service she provides and her 20 years of experience have earned her a very loyal clientele. However, last week, Rosa experienced one of the worst moments in her career.

It all happened when she attended a client who wanted to dye her hair. After agreeing on the color and asking the usual questions about whether she was allergic to certain compounds, Rosa began to apply the dye. “This dye is very gentle, made from natural products,” boasted the experienced hairdresser as she worked on the woman’s head.

After finishing the job, the client left very satisfied. But what seemed like a routine day of work turned into a real nightmare.

The next day, the client showed up at the salon in a very bad mood. She was accompanied by one of her children, who claimed to be a lawyer, to warn Rosa that she was going to be sued. The client had been to the doctor, her scalp was full of sores and she was losing her hair.

Rosa, very nervous, contacted her insurance company. It was the first time in two decades of work that she had gone through such an unpleasant experience.

Her company reviewed the Liability Insurance policy and, upon verifying that everything was in order and that she had Professional Liability Coverage, transferred the claim to a law firm that will handle her case. “Everything related to the lawsuit is covered by insurance, both legal fees and compensation,” said a very calm voice.

Rosa breathed a sigh of relief. And although she deeply regrets what happened to the client, the business she has built with so much love throughout her life is not in danger of closing.

The hairdresser wants to investigate why the product caused those injuries to her client and, in the meantime, has stopped using it.
