I went to a Hair Salon to get my hair dyed and some and a mini facial. The salon did not seem very nice but it was within my budget so I went ahead and gave it a shot. The creams and ointment that were used on my skin ended causing what I think is an allergic reaction and ended up being a serious infection. Is the hair salon liable for this injury at all?

There are actually thousands of hair salons around the country that accidentally harm their customers with the type of injury you have just described along with many other adverse affects as a result of hair care treatment. Some of these salons use highly toxic chemicals that may have been purchased offshore for a very low cost, and may also operate without a valid license. You should consult with a personal injury attorney immediately to investigate the nature of this accident and the salon which is responsible for causing harm. It is quite possible you can sue for damages or negotiate a fair settlement outside of court with the assistance of an attorney.
