Injured at the Beauty Salon, What Should I Do?

The sad truth is that an accident can happen anywhere, even when partaking in the relaxing atmosphere of a beauty salon.  Whether you are there for hair or nails, there are many tools of the trade that can be dangerous when in negligent or unlicensed hands. When you are involved in such an injury, contact Chandler personal injury lawyers Wattel & York!

Protect Yourself

Many of the injuries mentioned below happen when someone gets services done by someone who is unlicensed.  Accidents and negligence can still happen when someone is licensed, but ensure to protect yourself by checking on the salon or individual you are thinking of seeing.  You can verify a license for a Chandler salon here: Arizona Barbering and Cosmetology Board.

Types of Injuries

There are many different types of injuries that can happen when you are at the salon.  Below is a list of possible accidents, but many other types of injuries could happen beyond these listed.

Burns

There are lots of opportunities for burns to happen when at the salon.  Some hair straighteners can get up to 600 degrees!  Needless to say that an accident with an implement that is even 400 degrees is going to cause quite the burn.  Even a hair dryer can cause burns by turning water into steam that could burn your scalp.  And, of course, there is hot wax.  If hot wax is overheated before being applied for hair removal, it can cause an instant and painful burn.

There are also the dangers of chemical burns.  When multiple chemicals are used to strip, straighten, or dye hair, many times, those chemicals can come into contact with your skin or scalp.  When these chemicals are left on too long or applied inappropriately, the risk of a chemical burn increases significantly.

Laceration

Lacerations are also common injuries at the salon.  Hairdressers and manicurists use plenty of sharp tools to do their job.  A slight distraction or an improperly cared-for tool can cause a mistake that could result in the tool coming into contact with the skin and slicing or piercing it.  Scissors, razors, nail clippers, and cuticle cutters are all potentially dangerous when not used appropriately.

Infection

Burns and lacerations have been mentioned as typical injuries, but these initial injuries can also lead to infection.  If a salon does not have proper cleanliness of its tools and environment, the risk of infection is more likely.  These infections can lead to further illness and future complications.

Slip and fall

Due to all of the shampooing and conditioning, a salon’s floors can often become wet.  When spending your time at a salon, they must provide a safe and secure environment for you.  A fall due to an improperly managed environment is not to be taken lightly.  Injuries that result from slipping and falling don’t always present themselves immediately.  People can and do walk away from falls that result in cracked or broken bones.  Depending on the severity of these injuries, the full extent of the damage isn’t always known.

Additional Danger

One area where beauty salon injuries are unique is due to the nature of their service.  Many times beauty salons deal with a person’s hair.  When negligence or accidents happen, sometimes someone can end up with permanent hair loss caused by the very people you entrust to clean, fix, or improve your hair.

What to do?

When you are injured at a beauty salon, you should not accept responsibility for negligent or even accidental actions.  You need to document your injury or injuries by writing down what happened during the scene in which the incident occurred and besides this, you should be thinking about recovering from injury. You should also make sure to document the injury through photos or video.

Do not delay in seeking medical attention.  If you believe negligence is involved, getting help is crucial not only for your health but also to assist with any legal rights you may have.

Once you have documented the injury and received medical attention, the next step is to seek legal advice from lawyers who understand these issues.  The Chandler personal injury lawyers Wattel & York can help you decide the best route to take when these accidents happen.
