Insurer Hiscox USA has expanded its professional liability and general liability policies to nail and beauty professionals. Hiscox’s expanded coverage is currently available in 21 states, including Texas and Florida, and soon to be in California, Illinois, and New York. Self-employed beauty professionals can buy insurance tailored to the specific risks of their industry to help protect against potential claims and lawsuits, even if they are unwarranted.

“We understand that even the smallest claims can have a significant impact on self-employed professionals and we want to make certain that these small businesses have the resources and tools necessary to protect their business. Our offering provides affordable, direct coverage that protects them from common risks,” says Kevin Kerridge, a small business insurance expert for Hiscox USA.
