wow, thinking about this, get out of your box. What would be different? Would we have gotten into the business years ago if there was no licensing? All the infections, and the average consumer cannot afford an attorney, what would happen then?

Salons would come and go, there would be no cleaning, no sanitation. Health boards would not take this over, they are money strapped now. How about distributors, they would sell to anyone, but would they be liable if a chemical was used wrong? Trade shows? would they go away? Manufacturers, what would they do, cater to the public?

this is mind boggling if you really get your brain going on this one. a world without licensing?????? hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm diana from indiana

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
