Insurance for hair salons in Florida
Learn about business insurance requirements and the most common policies for beauty salons and cosmetologists in Florida.
Which policies are required for hair salons and stylists in Florida?
If you have a commercial lease, your property manager may require you to purchase general liability insurance. Commonly purchased by hair salons in Florida, general liability insurance can protect your business from expenses associated with common mishaps, such as client property damage and injuries.
State law in Florida requires every non-construction business with five or more employees to provide workers’ compensation insurance, which covers medical bills for work injuries.

What are the most common policies for hair salons in Florida?
The most common policies for hair salons in Florida vary depending on revenue, client contracts, partnerships, and other factors.
General liability insurance
General liability insurance is the foundation of a beauty salon’s business protection, with coverage that extends to client injuries, client property damage, and advertising injuries. Most commercial leases require you to have this coverage.
Business owner's policy (BOP)
Hair salons often qualify for a business owner’s policy. This package helps your business save money by bundling commercial property insurance with general liability insurance at an affordable rate.
Professional liability insurance
Professional liability insurance protects beauticians and hairstylists from lawsuits brought by dissatisfied customers. This policy, also called errors and omissions insurance, can help cover legal expenses if a customer sues over an unsatisfactory haircut or a negative reaction to a beauty product.
Florida workers' compensation
If you own a hair salon in Florida that has five or more employees, you are required to carry workers’ compensation coverage. If you have fewer than five employees, coverage is optional. However, workers’ compensation will cover medical bills and lost wages if one of your employees has a work-related injury.
What do hair salons in Florida pay for insurance?
According to an analysis of Insureon applications, the typical beauty salon in Florida can expect to pay more than the national median for some types of business insurance and less than the national median for other types.
For example, the median annual cost of workers’ compensation insurance for a hair salon in the state is $2,493, much more than the national median of $1,641. On the other hand, the median annual premium for a business owner’s policy is $760, less than the national median of $975.
