Barber, Cosmetology, Esthetics and Nail Technology Board

Barbers were placed under the jurisdiction of the Department upon its creation in 1917. The cosmetology

(formerly known as beauty culture) profession was added to the Agency's scope of regulation in 1928.

In 1950, the Department began regulating barber schools and cosmetology schools as well. Esthetics

was added in 1988 and nail technology in 1992. The Board is made up of eleven individuals appointed by

the Secretary, ten of whom are licensed in at least one of the regulated professions and one public

member. The Board is charged with providing expert knowledge and advice on disciplinary matters and

professional performance and conduct.
