Which aspect of esthetics does the North Dakota State Board NOT regulate?

The North Dakota State Board of Cosmetology regulates various aspects of esthetic practice, but hair styling falls under a different category within the broader field of cosmetology. The Board is focused primarily on the regulation of esthetics, which includes services such as makeup application, skin care treatments, and esthetic education programs, all crucial components of esthetic practice.

In North Dakota, estheticians are trained and licensed specifically for skin care services and cosmetic applications. Although these professionals may perform some hair-related services in their practice, the Board’s authority does not extend to the regulation of hair styling as that is typically governed under the cosmetology license, which includes hair cutting and coloring.

Understanding this distinction is key for those studying North Dakota esthetician law, as it clarifies what falls under the purview of the Board regarding esthetics versus those services related more to hairstyling, which would necessitate a cosmetology license instead.
