LAWS OF MARYLAND

5-303. SAME -- PUBLIC SCHOOL STUDENTS.

(A)   IN GENERAL.

SUBJECT TO THE PROVISIONS OF THIS   SECTION, A STUDENT WHO HAS

COMPLETED AT LEAST 1,000 HOURS OF  TRAINING WHILE ENROLLED IN

PUBLIC SCHOOL COURSES IN COSMETOLOGY    MAY PRACTICE COSMETOLOGY
WITHOUT A LICENSE.

(B)  CONDITIONS.

A STUDENT MAY PRACTICE COSMETOLOGY UNDER THIS SECTION ONLY
IF THE STUDENT:

(1)  HAS THE WRITTEN APPROVAL OF THE TEACHER OR
WORK-STUDY COORDINATOR OF THE STUDENT TO PRACTICE COSMETOLOGY IN
A SPECIFIC BEAUTY SALON;

(2)  PRACTICES COSMETOLOGY ONLY IN THAT SPECIFIC
BEAUTY SALON; AND

(3)  WHILE PRACTICING COSMETOLOGY, WORKS UNDER THE
DIRECT SUPERVISION OF AN INDIVIDUAL WHO IS LICENSED TO MANAGE A
BEAUTY SALON.

(C)  PAYMENT OF STUDENT.

A BEAUTY SALON MAY PAY A STUDENT FOR WORK AUTHORIZED UNDER
THIS SECTION.

REVISOR'S NOTE: This section is new language derived
without substantive change from former Art. 56, §
487(a) and (b).

In subsection (a) of this section, the power to
"practice cosmetology without a license" is
substituted for the former reference to accepting
"employment in the duties of apprentices", which was
misleading since an apprentice may engage in any
aspect of the practice of cosmetology, subject only to
the condition that the apprentice be properly
supervised. A student practicing under this section
may do so subject to the more onerous conditions in
subsection (b) of this section.

Also in subsection (a) of this section, the former
phrase "[n]otwithstanding the provisions of ... the
Health Occupations Article" is deleted as obsolete and
inaccurate.

Defined terms: "Beauty salon" § 5-101
"Practice cosmetology" § 5-101
