Small teams mean the owner often handles bookings, inventory, and insurance alike, so a simple package policy that bundles liability, property, and income protection is usually where Beaverton salons start.

Protecting your Beaverton service menu

• Tell your agent before adding a new service, especially anything advanced.
• Photograph extensions at installation and give written aftercare.
• Patch test new color clients and record the date and result on their card.
• Strand test before major lightening and note processing times.

If your Beaverton salon sells products under its own name, read private-label products and liability before launching the line.
