SUMMARY AS PASSED: (all summaries)

Department of Professional and Occupational Regulation; Board for Barbers and Cosmetology; regulation of estheticians. Provides for the licensure of estheticians. The bill defines estheticians and requires the Board for Barbers and Cosmetology to adopt regulations governing the practice of esthetics and schools of esthetics and instructors thereof by July 1, 2007. The bill defines "master esthetician" as a licensed esthetician who, in addition to the practice of esthetics, offers to the public for compensation lymphatic drainage, chemical exfoliation, and microdermabrasion and who has met such additional requirements as determined by the Board to practice lymphatic drainage and chemical exfoliation with products other than schedules II through VI controlled substances and microdermabrasion. The bill also increases from eight to 10 the membership of the Board by adding two members who are licensed as estheticians, at least one of whom is an esthetics salon owner and one of whom may be an owner, operator, or designated representative of a licensed esthetics school. Finally, the bill contains provisions for waiver from licensure examinations for those meeting certain requirements. The bill has a delayed enactment (July 1, 2007), except the provisions relating to Board membership.
