training may be conducted by any currently licensed cosmetology
salon or barber shop. The applicant must complete not less than
two hundred hours of training under the direct supervision of a
currently licensed barber or cosmetologist and shall include basic
sanitation, proper draping and shampoo techniques, rinsing and
neutralizing of perms and relaxers and removal of color or bleach.
After completing the required training, the shop owner shall submit
documentation that the required hours were completed on forms
furnished by the board. The applicant shall then be scheduled for
a written examination in the subjects completed and a state law
examination. The examination fee shall be that established by the
board. Upon successful completion of the examination a license
will be issued as a shampoo assistant. The fee for the license
shall be equal to the fee for all other personal licenses of the
board.
NOTE: The purpose of this bill is to create a specialty
license for shampoo assistant, to be regulated by the Board of
