Beauty Salons Insurance For NC and VA

Overview of the Program from Agents Insurance Markets, Inc.

This program is designed for retail personal care businesses where professional services and premises liability are the primary exposures. AIM places both General Liability and Professional Liability protections alongside Property and optional Excess/Umbrella capacity. Underwriting focuses on controllable exposures, clear safety procedures and documented staff training.

Ideal Accounts and Appetite

• Beauty salons and hair stylists (owner-operated and multiple chair salons)
• Barbershops and men's grooming establishments
• Day spas, nail salons and tanning salons
• Beauty schools and cosmetology training operations

Accounts that fit best are small to mid-sized operations with formal sanitation procedures, licensed staff, and limited or standard cosmetic services. Specialty or higher-risk services (for example, medical procedures, lasers, or permanent cosmetic tattooing) should be discussed with AIM underwriting before submission.
