10 Sec. 3-1. Cosmetology defined. Any one or any
11 combination of the following practices constitutes the
12 practice of cosmetology when done for cosmetic or beautifying
13 purposes and not for the treatment of disease or of muscular
14 or nervous disorder: arranging, braiding (except as provided
15 under Article IIIE), dressing, cutting, trimming, curling,
16 waving, chemical restructuring, shaping, singeing, bleaching,
17 coloring or similar work, upon the hair of the head; cutting

20 nails or otherwise artificial nails by hand or with
21 mechanical or electrical apparatus or appliances, or in any
22 way caring for the nails or the skin of the hands or feet

1 including massaging the hands, arms, elbows, feet, lower
2 legs, and knees of another person for other than the
3 treatment of medical disorders; any practice of epilation or
4 depilation of any person; any practice for the purpose of
5 cleansing, massaging or toning the skin of the scalp;
6 beautifying, massaging, cleansing, exfoliating the stratum
7 corneum of the epidermis, or stimulating the skin of the

12 person, tinting eyelashes and eyebrows and lightening hair on
13 the body and removing superfluous hair from the body of any
14 person by the use of depilatories, waxing or tweezers. The

22 are prohibited from performing any procedure that may
23 puncture or abrade the skin below the stratum corneum of the
24 epidermis or remove closed milia (whiteheads) which may draw
25 blood or serous body fluid. The term cosmetology includes
26 rendering advice on what is cosmetically appealing, but no
27 person licensed under this Act shall render advice on what is
28 appropriate medical treatment for diseases of the skin.
29 Purveyors of cosmetics may demonstrate such cosmetic products
30 in conjunction with any sales promotion and shall not be
31 required to hold a license under this Act. Nothing in this
32 Act shall be construed to prohibit the shampooing of hair by
33 persons employed for that purpose and who perform that task
34 under the direct supervision of a licensed cosmetologist or
-3- LRB093 08339 AMC 14481 a
