Analysis by the Legislative Reference Bureau

Under current law, a person may learn barbering or cosmetology through an apprenticeship. No apprentice may practice barbering or cosmetology except under the supervision of a licensed manager. This bill permits a licensed manager to delegate supervisory authority over an apprentice to a licensed barber or cosmetologist who has completed at least 2,000 hours of practice as a licensed barber or cosmetologist.
