Under existing law, the Alabama Board of Cosmetology and Barbering is responsible for the licensing and regulating of barbers, cosmetologists, estheticians, esthetician/manicurists, manicurists, manicurist/waxers, natural hairstylists, and threaders in the state.
This bill would change the name of the board from the Alabama Board of Cosmetology and Barbering to the State Board of Cosmetology.
This bill would exempt all barbers from licensing and regulation by the board.
This bill would revise the membership of the board to increase the number of active cosmetologists serving on the board from two to three, to remove, upon the expiration of their current terms, the two barber members of the board, and to increase the number of active estheticians serving on the board from one to two.
Amendment 621 of the Constitution of Alabama of 1901, now appearing as Section 111.05 of the Official Recompilation of the Constitution of Alabama of 1901, as amended, prohibits a general law whose purpose or effect would be to require a new or increased expenditure of local funds from becoming effective with regard to a local governmental entity without enactment by a 2/3 vote unless: it comes within one of a number of specified exceptions; it is approved by the affected entity; or the Legislature appropriates funds, or provides a local source of revenue, to the entity for the purpose.
The purpose or effect of this bill would be to require a new or increased expenditure of local funds within the meaning of the amendment. However, the bill does not require approval of a local governmental entity or enactment by a 2/3 vote to become effective because it comes within one of the specified exceptions contained in the amendment.
