When must a salon owner apply for a new salon license after a change of ownership?

A salon owner must apply for a new salon license within 60 days after a change of ownership. This requirement ensures that the new owner is compliant with all state regulations and standards governing cosmetology businesses. The 60-day window allows for the proper processing of the application while also giving the new owner time to familiarize themselves with the responsibilities associated with operating a salon.

This timeframe also helps maintain the integrity and safety of services provided to clients by ensuring that new ownership is properly documented and licensed, which aligns with public health and safety regulations. The requirement for timely application serves as a reminder to salon owners about the significant responsibilities that come with managing a licensed establishment in the cosmetology industry.
