The bill amends the Barbers and Cosmetologists Act to provide an exemption for make-up artists and hairstylists who are employed in motion picture productions. This addition recognizes the unique nature of their work within the film industry and allows them to perform their professional duties without being subject to the regulations of the Barbers and Cosmetologists Act.
In the revised language, the bill specifies that individuals who are employed as make-up artists or hairstylists in motion picture productions are exempt from the provisions of the Act. This new exemption is added alongside existing exemptions for licensed medical professionals, registered nurses, funeral service practitioners, and those providing eyebrow-threading services.
