The bill amends Section 199.4 of Title 59 of the Oklahoma Statutes, which pertains to the State Board of Cosmetology and Barbering. It establishes the requirement for the Board to employ an executive director who will oversee the office and fulfill various responsibilities, including issuing licenses, collecting fees, and maintaining records. The bill also specifies that the executive director must not be actively engaged in cosmetology or barbering while serving in this role.

Additionally, the bill introduces the position of an assistant executive director, who will support the executive director in their duties. The assistant executive director is required to devote their entire time to the office, hold a current Oklahoma master instructor license, and possess the necessary qualifications through education and experience. The act is set to take effect on November 1, 2025.
