Texas HB705 establishes a multistate Cosmetology Licensure Compact to facilitate interstate practice and regulation of cosmetology.
HB705 creates a Cosmetology Licensure Compact to streamline the licensing process for cosmetologists across participating states. The Compact aims to improve public access to cosmetology services and reduce licensing burdens. It allows eligible cosmetologists to obtain a multistate license, recognized in all member states, provided they meet competency exams and other requirements. The Compact Commission, established by member states, oversees the program, enforces rules, and maintains a database of licensees. States can charge fees for licenses and investigations.
