Nail Technician (and a Cosmotology Career)

[outlaw4freedom]

Hello fellow liberty lovers!

In speaking with my significant other about considering moving to the Free State, we began researching the Nail Tech rules & regulations for New Hampshire. Unfortunately there isn't a whole lot of info out there that we could find besides the NH Board of Cosmetology.

Any Nail Technicians out there?

I believe the main question she's looking for an answer to is:

How many hours of training are required to transfer a license from another state? 

Thanks in advance!
Live Free or Die!


_{PostScript:: Sorry for the double-post (here on FSP and NHfree forums), wasn't sure which would be best place.}

Don't know anything about those rules, but welcome to the underground.

Thank you very much for that info Kat... Much appreciated. By chance, do you or anyone you know currently employ the services of a nail tech (in a Salon, Traveling, or otherwise)?

Ooooohhhh, what an idea........! 
As far as I know she wants to be a traveling manicurist, catering to those who can't get out to salons or are too embarrassed to (surprisingly many).

Will speak with her about it tonight while we listen to Free Talk Live. Man I love her!

Mike still owes her buffing for seven nails

[Kat Kanning]

I've only had one partial manicure.  My manicurist got arrested.

Ahhh, I feel so stupid lol. 

I've read through everything, and if we have any more questions on this in the future we will post here. Thank you all for your time, energy, and support

wait a minute, if I remember correctly, Mike spent 45 minutes on Kats hands, how could Kat still have 7 undone nails!  Why, there ought to be a law against manucurists who charge full price (or discounted price) to complete the job paid for.  Shame on you Michael Fisher, why, whatever prevented you from doing a good job?

It appears that if you wash your child's hair (or attempt to tame your kid's cowlick or blowdry his hair) you are "barbering" as defined at RSA 313-A:1:

II. ""Barbering'' means:
       (a) Shaving or trimming the beard or cutting the hair;
       (b) Giving facial or scalp massages or treatment with oils, creams, lotions, or other preparations, either by hand or mechanical appliances;
       (c) Shampooing, arranging, dressing, or dyeing the hair or applying hair tonics;
       (d) Applying cosmetic preparations, antiseptics, powders, oils, clays, or lotions to scalp, face, or neck, or removing superfluous hair from the face and neck of any person; or
       (e) Styling, waving, curling, straightening, or bleaching the hair by mechanical or chemical means.

Barbering without a license is a Class A Misdemeanor under NH law (RSA 313-A:9):

I. It shall be a class A misdemeanor for any natural person, and a felony for any other person, to engage in any practice regulated by this chapter without the appropriate license.

The only exemptions for the barbering licensure requirements are contained at RSA 313-A:25:

I. The provisions of this chapter relative to barbering shall not be construed to apply to the following persons:
       (a) Physicians and surgeons licensed under RSA 329 when engaged in the practice of their profession;
       (b) Chiropractors licensed under RSA 316-A when engaged in the practice of their profession;
       (c) Commissioned medical or surgical officers of the United States army, navy, or marine hospital service;
       (d) Registered and practical nurses licensed under RSA 326-B;
       (e) Licensed cosmetologists or estheticians under this chapter;
       (f) Persons engaged in the practice of barbering in public or private institutions where such practice is carried on solely for the benefit of such institution;
       (g) Morticians licensed under RSA 325 when engaged in the practice of their profession; or
       (h) Persons conducting programs for barbering demonstration sponsored by a recognized barber organization.

Note that a Class A Misdemeanor carries a maximum term of imprisonment of ONE YEAR under RSA 651:2.  That mother in the Johnson & Johnson baby shampoo commercial ought to be sent to jail for a year -- that'll teach her to engage in barbering without a license!

I think there has to be a "transaction" (ie, money exchanged) in order for there to be a violation.

IIRC, Kat never paid Michael, because he never finished. There was no "transaction", and yet Mike went to jail.
