HB1016

This bill restructures the licensing board that oversees barbers, massage therapists, and cosmetologists by creating a single nine-member board instead of separate boards, with membership divided among two barbers, two massage therapists, three public members, one cosmetologist, and one esthetician or nail technician. The bill also standardizes how board members are appointed and removes them, requiring three-year terms with a limit of three consecutive terms per person. Additionally, the bill revises certain licensing fees for these professions.
