State Board of Cosmetology and Barbering; requiring employment of certain position; establishing eligibility requirements. Effective date.

SB 157 would have required Oklahoma's State Board of Cosmetology and Barbering to hire an assistant executive director who must hold a current Oklahoma master instructor license and be qualified by education and experience. It also specified that the executive director cannot actively practice cosmetology or barbering while serving. The bill outlined specific duties for both roles, including managing licenses, collecting fees, maintaining records, and reporting to the Board. The bill failed committee review in February 2025 and did not become law.
