Q: Got chemical burns to my face and scalp, from Blonde Solutions hair products applied by their Educator. who do I sue?
After visiting a dermatologist, I found out the person listed as an Educator was an Unlicensed stylist.
A: Sorry to hear what happened to you. If the educator was the individual who applied (or misapplied) the hair product in question, you would arguably sue that person along with his or her employer (assuming the educator was acting within the scope of employment). In the meantime, take photographs of your burns, seek appropriate medical treatment and speak with an experienced personal injury attorney. You can find many excellent attorneys using the Find a Lawyer tab on the JUSTIA homepage.
