Braiding without a License

Posted by Eric at 6:58 am. Filed under: General

Interesting.

Local bureaucrats ordered Uqdah to cease and desist, or be “subject to criminal prosecution.” Why? Because he didn’t have a license. “It’s a safety issue,” said the regulators. Those who run a hair salon must have a cosmetology license. The chemicals they use dyeing or perming hair might hurt someone.

Hair dye is hardly a serious safety threat, but even if it were, Cornrows & Co. didn’t dye or perm hair. They only braided it. That didn’t matter, said the Cosmetology Board — they still had to get a license. In order to get one, Uqdah would have to pay about $5,000 to take more than 1,000 hours of courses at a beauty school.
