Several things have come past my face recently that's got me
thinking.. and I thought since we are such a diverse group I would
pass it in your face and see what sticks to the wall..
As we are all well aware, all but 1 US state requires licensing for
nail techs.. almost every other country has zero requirements by law
to hang out a sign. Over the years one state or another has tried to
kill our licensing requirements - none successfully, while other
state have INCREASED required hours. I know many of us would love to
see a federally sound program, but that is never going to happen -
our constitution is set up so that each state MUST set its own laws.
There also was a recent thread on the forums, a tech was concerned
about making a purchase in an online site that did not ask for a license.
I know also many of you have very strong feelings about this topic..
lets try to not start ant flame wars here :)
How would your job and or life be different if licensing was not
required or required if it is not now?
Consumer's have the ability to file claims with the state because of
licensing, what would they do if there was no requirements for
licensing? Who would the consumer go to to complain? Who would over
see sanitation, health issues?
How would you learn perform services properly if there was no
accredited schools though the state or government?
Would you stay in the industry if there was no licensing?
Would you pay more for your license if you thought your state was
going to cut licensing?
Would you actively petition your state if they were considering
dropping licensing requirements?
Do you think the industry can be self-regulated?
I guess
