HB 670 -- Licensure of Cosmetologists Sponsor: Ruestman This bill increases from 750 to 800 the number of hours a manicurist apprentice must complete in order to be licensed. A person is allowed to make application for the required licensing examination if the person is a graduate of a foreign cosmetology program and the State Board of Cosmetology determines that the program has educational requirements which are substantially the same as an educational establishment licensed by the board.Copyright (c) Missouri House of Representatives
