Advisory Board Meetings and Workshops

We are looking forward to an exciting year for the barber, cosmetology, esthetics and manicure industries. The Advisory Board and members from the industries have worked long and hard on re-writing the law that regulates their professions. This work has included updating, clarifying, deleting and adding language to make sure that the law is current with new industry trends and also ensures the safety of the public. We anticipate that the re-write will be completed by June 2010 and will be submitted to the legislature in the 2011 session.

We encourage everyone to attend these meetings to have an opportunity to provide input as we go through this arduous task. The Advisory Board meetings and Workshops schedule for 2011 are listed below. All meetings and workshops start at 9:00 a.m. unless otherwise noted.
