H 120 Idaho House · 68th Legislature, 1st Regular Session (2025)

BARBERS AND COSMETOLOGISTS – Amends and repeals existing law to provide for the de-licensure of thermal stylists.

This bill removes licensing requirements for thermal stylists and related equipment dealers in Idaho. It deletes all references to "thermal styling" from the barber and cosmetology licensing code, including provisions about registering thermal styling equipment dealers and requirements for retail dealers. The changes affect businesses and individuals who previously needed to register under these outdated provisions. The law becomes effective July 1, 2025, eliminating these specific regulatory requirements.
