Mark your calendar and note that the Health Licensing Office (and all State of Oregon agencies) will be closed on the following days:
The Board of Cosmetology (Board), under the Health Licensing Office (HLO), is notifying interested parties that proposed administrative rules have been filed with the Secretary of State's Office for publication in the May 2024 Oregon Bulletin. Permanent administrative rules are anticipated to become effective on July 1, 2024.
The Health Licensing Office (HLO) and the Board of Cosmetology (Board) are seeking interested parties to serve on a Rules Advisory Committee (RAC) for the cosmetology profession. RACs are comprised of individuals and communities with unique perspectives, subject matter expertise, and lived experience as it relates to cosmetology services who are likely to be affected by the rule changes. RACs make recommendations and provide input on rules to HLO and the Board for consideration during the rulemaking process.
The Health Licensing Office will open at 10 a.m. on Tuesday, December 19, 2023, rather than 9 a.m.
The Health Licensing Office (HLO) and the Board of Cosmetology (Board) are currently seeking Natural Hair Care Authorization holders to serve on the Natural Hair Care Qualification Committee (Committee).
