Bill Details
4/28/16
AN ACT TO AMEND TITLE 24 OF THE DELAWARE CODE RELATING TO COSMETOLOGY AND BARBERING.
This Bill creates a licensure exemption for individuals engaged solely in the practice of hair braiding, which does not involve hair cutting, dyeing or the application of chemicals. In short, hair braiding is a low risk activity which does not require regulation. In the interests of public protection, the Bill adds a provision giving the Board authority to establish training standards for advanced practice techniques. Finally, the Board composition provision is revised to facilitate the appointment of Board members and bring public representation to a closer balance by increasing the public member seats by one.
