Amends S.B. 1324 to revise the definitions of “cosmetology” and “esthetics”.

This legislation is a trailer to Senate Bill 1324. That bill combines the Boards of Barber Examiners and Cosmetology and makes other changes that will facilitate efficiencies and create flexibility and new opportunities for licensees and people entering those professions. This trailer bill will clarify that eyelash extensions are within the scope of practice for cosmetologists and estheticians. As the Board of Cosmetology has worked on this comprehensive joint legislation, it determined that further clarification on this issue was important. This clarification is necessary because the application of eyelash extensions is a public health issue as it poses risks of infection and to client safety.
