2019 Senate Bill 434 / 2020 Public Act 20

Authorize rules for cosmetology “mobile salons”

Introduced in the Senate

Aug. 20, 2019

Introduced by Sen. Aric Nesbitt (R-26)

To direct the state licensing bureau to promulgate regulations on “mobile salons” or mobile cosmetology equipment used by different salons. Under current law cosmetology services and salons are subject to an extensive array of state regulatory and licensure requirements. The bill would also authorize reciprocity for individuals with cosmetology licenses from other states where the requirements are "substantially equal" in rigor to Michigan's, and also revise details of other regulations on cosmetologists, salons and cosmetology schools.
