The bill allows a person licensed by the board of cosmetology arts and sciences or the board of barbering to practice in locations other than a licensed salon, school of cosmetology arts and sciences, licensed barbershop, or barber school pursuant to rules adopted by the board of cosmetology arts and sciences or board of barbering, as applicable. The bill allows the board of cosmetology arts and sciences and board of barbering to adopt emergency rules to implement the provisions of the bill.
