Bill Summary

RELATING TO THE BAR

AI Summary

This bill amends existing law to revise the required hours for obtaining a cosmetology license, specifically reducing the number of hours needed for both the educational course of instruction and the apprenticeship route for cosmetologists. Previously, aspiring cosmetologists needed to complete 1,600 hours of schooling or 3,200 hours as an apprentice, but this bill lowers those requirements to 1,000 hours of schooling or 2,000 hours as an apprentice. The bill also includes an emergency clause, meaning it will take effect on July 1, 2026.
