This bill permits a cosmetology

cosmetology and hairstyling to receive a student permit to shampoo hair.

Under this bill, a junior student in a course of instruction in cosmetology and hairstyling would be eligible to obtain a student permit to shampoo and rinse hair if the student submits to the Board of Cosmetology and Hairstyling satisfactory evidence that the student has completed at least 60 hours of relevant course instruction, and does not have a communicable, contagious or infectious disease which could reasonably be expected to be transmitted during the course of rendering shampoo and hair rinsing services.
