A bill to amend 1980 PA 299, entitled
"Occupational code,"
by amending section 1203a (MCL 339.1203a), as added by 1997 PA 97.
THE PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF MICHIGAN ENACT:
Sec. 1203a. (1) An individual shall not render any form of
cosmetology services, with or without compensation, on any
individual other than a member of his or her immediate family
without a license under this article. However, this article does
not apply to an individual, person, or premises licensed under
article 11 while rendering the services of a barber. The
prohibition contained in this subsection does not apply to a
currently registered senior cosmetology student performing shampoo
services on members of the public in a cosmetology establishment,
so long as the student has completed the 350 hours of instruction
as required under section 1205(5)(c) and has met the academic
requirements regarding those courses in client safety, sanitation,
bacteriology, hair and scalp disorders, scalp manipulations, and
proper shampooing procedure. A cosmetology establishment employing
a cosmetology senior student for the purpose of rendering shampoo
services shall apply to the school, on forms provided by the
department, for verification of current registration as a
cosmetology senior student and completion of the 350 hours of
instruction as required under section 1205(5)(c). The school shall
verify that the student is currently registered with the school and
the hours completed by the student and shall sign the application,
which expires on the expected graduation date of the student. The
cosmetology establishment shall do all of the following:
(a) Keep the records on file for at least 3 years after the
end of the employment relationship.
(b) Allow the department access to the records.
(c) Post the approved application with cosmetology licenses in
the salon.
(d) Not allow the student to perform cosmetology services
other than shampooing while employed by the cosmetology
establishment.
(2) An individual licensed as a cosmetologist under this
article may render hair care services, skin care services, natural
hair cultivation, and manicuring services as part of the practice
of cosmetology, but shall not render electrology without being
licensed as an electrologist.
(3) The department may license an individual to render
manicuring services, natural hair cultivation, or skin care
services in accordance with his or her training. An individual
licensed as a manicurist, natural hair culturist, or esthetician
shall only render that particular service and shall not render any
other cosmetology service without being licensed for that service.
An individual licensed as a manicurist, natural hair culturist, or
esthetician shall not render electrology without being licensed as
an electrologist.
(4) An individual licensed as an electrologist shall render
only electrology services and shall not render any other
cosmetology service without separately being licensed to render
those services.
