Many festivals require that their vendors carry liability
insurance...and that figure isn't very unusual. If there is a state
regulation that lumps henna in under a cosmetology umbrella, that
might also be the "why". Look at it in terms of carrying car
insurance, homeowners insurance.....shit happens. Even if your henna
is pristinely safe, you still might have someone fall and break a leg
in your booth, and you would be liable for that. If you're going on
the road with henna and being serious about it, look into a business
liability insurance policy. They're not that costly, and many of the
major festivals will require proof of insurance. The same policy will
protect you if a tornado wipes out your booth and all of your
inventory.
