AB 625: Barbering and cosmetology.
The bill aims to amend the state's regulations on barbering and cosmetology. It would repeal provisions related to hairstyling licenses and make conforming changes. The bill would remove certain practices, such as shampooing, curling, and waving, from the practices of barbering and cosmetology, respectively. It would also require establishments that provide these services to provide notice to consumers of the person's licensure status. Additionally, the bill would expand the scope of the crime of violating the regulations, imposing a state-mandated local program. The state would not be required to reimburse local agencies or school districts for the costs of implementing this bill.
