Bill Summary
AN ACT To amend and reenact R.S. 37:563(8), relative to esthetics; to provide for the practice of esthetics; to provide for definitions; and to provide for related matters.
AI Summary
This bill amends existing Louisiana law to expand the definition of "esthetics," which refers to practices related to beautifying the skin and body. Specifically, it adds "blow drying hair services" to the list of esthetician practices, alongside existing services like facial massages, eyebrow shaping, eyelash extensions, and hair removal through methods such as waxing or threading. The bill clarifies that esthetics involves cleansing, stimulating, or beautifying various parts of the body using hands, mechanical or electrical devices, or cosmetic preparations, but it explicitly excludes the diagnosis or treatment of skin conditions and the hair removal process known as electrolysis.
