Bill Summary
Under current law, the Cosmetology Examining Board, which licenses and regulates cosmetologists, aestheticians, electrologists, and manicurists, consists of nine members, including two representatives of cosmetology schools, four members who are licensed either as aestheticians or cosmetologists, one member who is licensed as an electrologist, and two public members. This bill adds a licensed manicurist to the membership of the board and removes one public member.
AI Summary
This bill modifies the composition of the Cosmetology Examining Board, which is responsible for licensing and regulating professionals in fields like cosmetology and aesthetics. Currently, the board has nine members, including representatives from cosmetology schools, licensed cosmetologists or aestheticians, a licensed electrologist, and two public members. The proposed changes will add a licensed manicurist to the board and reduce the number of public members by one, resulting in a board of nine members that now includes a representative for manicurists. The bill also outlines procedures for the initial appointment of this new manicurist member, allowing for provisional appointments by the governor and specifying the term length for this initial appointee.
