The bill amends the Barber and Cosmetology Services Act by removing specific definitions from Section 54-5802, including the definitions for "makeup artist" and "makeup artistry," which are entirely repealed. Additionally, it revises provisions in Section 54-5804 regarding the operation of licensed establishments, specifically prohibiting the practice of licensed occupations in unlicensed locations and detailing exceptions for certain licensed services provided outside of licensed establishments.

Furthermore, the bill introduces new definitions and clarifications, such as renumbering existing definitions and updating the language to reflect current practices in the industry. The changes aim to streamline the regulations governing barbering, cosmetology, and related services while ensuring compliance with safety and inspection standards. The act is set to take effect on July 1, 2025, due to an emergency declaration.
