Regulation of Barbering and Cosmetology professions, as well as salons, is needed to protect the public.
The objectives of this review are to determine if the Board of Barbers and Cosmetologists should be continued, consolidated or terminated, and if conditions warrant a change in the degree of regulations. In addition, this review is intended to assess the Board’s compliance with the general provisions of Chapter 30, Article 1 of the West Virginia Code, the Board’s enabling statute, and other applicable rules and laws such as the Open Governmental Proceedings and purchasing requirements.
