Existing law, the Barbering and Cosmetology Act, provides for the licensure and regulation of the practice of barbering and cosmetology, which include, among other things, shampooing, arranging, dressing, curling, waving, and applying hair tonics to, the hair of any person, by the State Board of Barbering and Cosmetology. The act specifies that the practice of cosmetology also includes the practice of cleansing or beautifying the hair of any person and that the practice of barbering also includes the practice of hairstyling all textures of hair by standard methods that are current at the time of the hairstyling. The act makes it unlawful for any person to engage in barbering or cosmetology for compensation or to operate an establishment where barbering or cosmetology is practiced, without a license, and specifies that a violation of this requirement is subject to an administrative fine and may be subject to a misdemeanor. The act also makes it a misdemeanor, punishable as prescribed, for any person, firm, association or corporation to violate the act if no specific penalty is otherwise provided. This bill would remove the practices of shampooing, arranging, dressing, curling, and waving the hair of any person from the practice of barbering and cosmetology. The bill would remove the practice of hairstyling of all textures of hair by standard methods that are current at the time of the hairstyling from the practice of barbering. The bill would also remove the practice of cleansing or beautifying the hair of any person from the practice of cosmetology. The bill would require a person who engages in practices of arranging, beautifying, cleansing, curling, dressing, shampooing, or waving the hair of any person at an establishment to provide notice to consumers of his or her licensure status. Because the bill would create a new crime, the bill would impose a state-mandated local program. The California Constitution requires the state to reimburse local agencies and school districts for certain costs mandated by the state. Statutory provisions establish procedures for making that reimbursement. This bill would provide that no reimbursement is required by this act for a specified reason.
