Mobile Services Applications Cosmetology and Barbering

Guidance on how to obtain licenses to provide mobile services

The Board’s mobile cosmetology and barbering policy allows mobile services at locations chosen by the client, such as a client’s home, office, etc., and services in a mobile vehicle equipped as a shop. Under this policy, “all persons and businesses that offer Mobile Services shall register.” This means that each of the following must be registered and approved before offering mobile services: (1) a licensee offering mobile services, whether on location or in a vehicle (an individual); (2) a business with more than one licensee providing mobile services (a mobile business); and (3) a vehicle equipped as a shop (a mobile unit). Each licensee, business, and unit must register using a different form. An owner of a business or unit does not need to be a licensee, but all individuals who provide mobile services must be licensed to provide those services.
