Bill > S2245

This bill modifies the regulation of student permits by the New Jersey State Board of Cosmetology and Hairstyling and establishes oversight of individuals seeking employment as shampoo technicians. Some key provisions include: - Expanding the definition of a "registered student" to include "junior students" who have completed less than half the required hours of instruction, and creating a "shampoo permit" for these students to shampoo and rinse hair after completing 60 hours of coursework. - Requiring individuals seeking employment as shampoo technicians who are not enrolled in a licensed cosmetology program to complete a 60-hour program or training offered by a licensed shop, pass a practical exam, and obtain a certification from the Board. - Establishing standards and procedures for the shampoo technician certification, including reactivation requirements if the certification lapses. The bill also makes various other technical and definitional changes to the existing law regulating the cosmetology and hairstyling industry in New Jersey.
