Claims for the Cost of Care: Local Authority Provision

In the 2007 document, a claimant sued a defendant for professional negligence during a hair treatment that resulted in a visible donor skin graft site and moderate psychological distress. The lawsuit was based on the Supply of Goods and Services Act 1982 and common law negligence, as the defendant failed to follow the manufacturer's instructions for the bleaching product Oxycur Platin. The defendant initially ignored the claim but responded after legal proceedings began and expert evidence was presented. The defense claimed that an 'Olymp Hair Master' was used instead of a regular hair dryer and that the claimant was advised to use a 'super charged' conditioner, not Sudacrem.
