Natural hair care specialists can also CUT extra artificial hair off but may not provide a haircut.
Natural hair care specialists can attach artificial hair by wrapping, braiding, weaving and sewing but not by chemical adhesive. Roller sets are “styling” the hair which falls under the scope of practice of a cosmetologist.
However, performing a roller set as a service is not acceptable as No tension is left on the hair strand once the roller is removed. Example: The service is a twist and the licensee uses a roller at the ends of the hair to complete the twist. These may be used tools are to complete the service. Many of the services provided need tools to complete the specific service, such as comb, brush, sewing needle, rollers etc. It does not matter if the natural hair has been treated with a chemical service in the past, natural hair care specialists can perform the services as defined by statute. The natural hair care license allows licensees to provide a service that results in tension on hair strands or roots by twisting, wrapping, extending, or locking hair. Perhaps most of this comes from the licensure name as it should have been called a “Braiding License”. So much confusion still surrounds what services a natural hair care specialist can perform.
