UNITED KINGDOM, 2017 – A hair salon offers various services, but at the same time, there are some strong chemicals and dangerous equipment in a salon because of the many services they offer. These items, when not properly handled, could cause serious damage or injury to a client's scalp or hair.

Because hairdressers are in a profession where they offer services that deal with a physical part of a person, the client's trust is essential. Hair differs from person to person and it is critical to provide the right safety procedures as well as training to prevent injuries and accidents from occurring. The reason why you go to a hair salon is to improve your hair through a haircut or treatment. You expect to improve your hair's appearance, not to have your hair damaged.

As an experienced and skilled solicitor specialising in different types of beauty treatment claims, Joanne Du Plessis knows all about the things that can go wrong with hair treatments that may be caused by hair relaxing, styling, hair dyeing, perming or hair conditioning and other services.

When a person wants to claim compensation for hair damage, it is important to look for an experienced solicitor who understands the stress hair damage gives a person. You want someone who's trustworthy and willing to hear your problem, take the matter seriously and help you to get justice for the damage done to you.

Hiring a solicitor like Ms. Du Plessis is essential not only because you experience pain but also because the experience brought you stress, shock, loss of confidence and hours, weeks or months of recuperation. The damage could be so severe that you had to take time off and lose your capacity to earn or seek another professional's help to partly undo the damage. This is understandable because hair grows only about a quarter of an inch or just over one centimetre each month.

Dermatitis, brittle hair, itchiness, scalp damage, burnt hair and balding are just some of the results of professional negligence because of incorrect following of directions or lack of proper safety precautions. Results of negligence are likely to appear a few hours or days after the treatment. As soon as you realise there is hair damage, it is important to seek legal advice immediately.
