barbering and cosmetology; licensure

SB 1118 amends Arizona's barbering and cosmetology licensing laws by clarifying definitions for key terms like "aesthetician," "barber," "cosmetologist," and "eyelash technician." It specifically defines "eyelash technician" as a non-licensed person who performs only eyelash extensions (excluding tattoos or chemicals), and updates descriptions of services such as facial treatments, hair removal methods, and nail technology. This bill directly affects licensed professionals (barbers, cosmetologists, aestheticians) and new practitioners seeking to offer eyelash extensions without full licensure. The changes aim to modernize regulatory language to better reflect current industry practices without creating new licensing requirements.
