Cosmetologist, Manicurist, Estheticians, Barbers, Instructors, Salon/Shops, Personal Services Operators, and Mobil Services Operators can renew licenses online. Watch for your Notice to Renew in the mail and if you are eligible, you will receive a password and the website address. Visa or MasterCard are required for online payment.
If you saved $12 a month over a two year period you would have saved enough money to pay for your operator renewal * and two years of salon shop renewals.
*This amount applies to licensees with only one endorsement. To accommodate for additional endorsements simply add to this amount! $14 a month for two endorsements, $17 a month for three endorsements and $20 a month if you have all four endorsements.
NOTICE: If you pay your license renewal fee through an automatic bill payer system please make sure that you include the code and license numbers with your payment so we can apply your payment properly. |
