Never understood the need to have your nails done professionally. Geez, a nail file and polish isn’t rocket science.

For the same reason they fine white men who cut hair without the proper government license?

While I think a license to fiddle around with hair is stupid the article makes it sound like they are only going after black women.

I sincerely doubt that is the case.

If it’s about health, the government could also pass out information sheets to the public to watch for, i.e. does your cosmetologist do thus and such, and why she should. Nobody wants to pass around disease carelessly, but somehow we can’t all be bubble boys either. Sane vigilance should be the rule, and matters of artistry not under government purview.

An unqualified personal trainer can cripple you for the rest of your life. Good luck collecting from that uninsured genius

Uneducated nutritionist can foul you up in really bad ways. IE the current “celiac” diet fad.....

I think for some things it works better when the beautician does it with both hands. Plus the ladies love the pampering.

Gyms have their own safety regulations and it would be difficult to injure someone in otherwise acceptable while following them. There are more than one set of eyes here.

Guess what! If you go to a restaurant outside of a big city that has a health inspection office, chances are the health inspector has never been there. Restaurant inspectors don’t set one foot outside of Austin, TX. Even if they get a complaint, they’re not leaving the city limits. Supposedly, there aren’t enough inspectors. Bet there’s even less chance of one inspecting a salon.

Decades ago, a local boy grew up to become a meat inspector so we had him inspecting area slaughter houses but once he retired, that was the end of that.

Maybe black women more commonly want to do it because African women’s hairstyles are more complex.

Excellent analysis. I wonder if it started as self-regulation - and, did the courts step in first or did big government regulators butt in first.

We had licensed plumbers out to get the drain working on the master tub. All they did was stand around scratching their heads and charging a big bill. A decade laster, still can’t use the master bath.

I first thought about it when fake nail salons opened. There were some horror stories about fungus under there and infections, ick.

The context makes it clear that it is.
Sane distinctions must be made.

Sounds like a lousy installation. A great plumber would suggest how to correct it without going overboard.

I always think of libertarians as people who have, till now, not been sick and helpless . . . and very grateful for someones kindness.

I’ve been in those gyms. Have never seen any employee stop any one from doing anything. I have witnessed injuries...oh well

Unlicensed CNN and MSNBC “journalists” can turn your brain into mush!
