What is the maximum number of days allowed to correct violations cited by board staff?

The maximum number of days allowed to correct violations cited by board staff is 10 days. This timeframe is established to ensure that licensed cosmetologists and establishments address any issues promptly, maintaining compliance with regulations designed to protect public health and safety.

The 10-day period provides an adequate balance between the need for immediate corrective action and the operational realities of running a cosmetology business. It allows practitioners the opportunity to rectify minor violations without unduly disrupting their operations or compromising client service. Compliance with this timeline demonstrates a commitment to adherence to regulatory standards, which is critical for maintaining licensure and the integrity of the profession.

In contrast, shorter durations may not allow enough time to implement necessary changes, while longer durations could jeopardize public safety and the effectiveness of the regulatory framework.
