barbering and cosmetology board; revision

SB 1518 revises Arizona's definitions for barbering, cosmetology, and aesthetics professions in the state code. It clarifies specific practices, including explicitly adding eyelash extensions and chemical treatments for facial hair (like lash lifts) to cosmetology services, and defining "eyelash technician" as a non-licensed role limited to eyelash extensions. The bill also updates barbering definitions to include straight razor hair removal on the head, face, and neck, and refines terms like "esthetician" and "nail technology." This technical revision directly affects licensed professionals (barbers, cosmetologists, aestheticians, and eyelash technicians) by precisely defining their scope of practice. The bill focuses solely on clarifying existing definitions, not creating new regulations or fees.
