§590. Renewal of certificates of registration
A.(1) Every beauty shop owner, mobile salon owner, booth renter, manager of a
beauty shop, and school shall, on or before January thirty-first of each calendar year, renew
his or its certificate of registration. Every certificate of registration which has not been
timely renewed shall expire on the following first day of March, at which time the holder of
such certificate of registration may have his certificate renewed only upon fulfilling the
requirements provided for by this Chapter and paying the restoration fee provided in R.S.
37:599.
(2) Every registered cosmetologist, esthetician, manicurist, or teacher who continues
to actively practice his licensed profession shall renew his certificate of registration on or
before such individual's date of birth, and such certificate shall expire thirty days following
the date of birth if not renewed.
B. Any holder of a certificate of registration who retires from his authorized practice
for more than three years may resume his practice and renew his certificate of registration
upon satisfactory proof that he is qualified to resume, which shall be provided by a short
form examination conducted by the examination team. Such renewals may be facilitated by
attending a "brush up" course conducted by an approved school and paying the appropriate
fee set forth in R.S. 37:599.
C. Persons registered in Louisiana who maintain a license or registration to practice
outside of the state shall be considered as having maintained an active practice during the
term covered by such foreign certificate.
