At Louisville Beauty Academy, a Kentucky State-Licensed and State-Accredited Beauty College, we believe that staying informed about the latest regulations and public information in the beauty industry is crucial for both current students and prospective professionals. As part of our commitment to transparency and education, we are pleased to share the following important updates regarding Kentucky regulations and licensing procedures for beauty professionals.

Senate Bill 14 (RS 24) Now in Effect: What Prospective Nail Technicians Need to Know

Senate Bill 14, now effective in Kentucky, brings important changes for prospective nail technician licensees:

  • Retesting Opportunity: If you fail your nail technician exam, you can now retake the exam 30 days after your previous attempt. This option applies ONLY to the nail technician license type.
  • Verification Process: Until a permanent solution is implemented, the Kentucky Board of Cosmetology (KBC) requires verification of eligibility to retest.

To facilitate this process, nail technician applicants should email the following information to [email protected]:

  • Full Name
  • Date of Birth
  • Last 4 digits of SSN
  • Permit Number (if applicable)
  • Date Last Test Result Received (if applicable)

This information will enable KBC staff to verify your eligibility to retest and coordinate with PSI, the official testing vendor.

License Renewal Requirements for 2024-2025: Compliance is Key

As the license renewal period approaches, it is essential to ensure your renewal application meets the required standards. The following are important reminders for all licensees:

  • Photo Requirements:
    • Not Accepted:
      • Car, salon, or home selfies with non-plain backgrounds.
      • Photos of your Driver’s License, previous KBC License, Passport, or Concealed Carry License.
      • Wedding and family photos, whether alone or with others.
      • Photos edited into shapes or images of your license verification page.
      • Photos with dark backgrounds or that do not show your entire face.
      • Photos taken more than 6 months before submission.

All applications must include a passport-style photo as per regulation 201 KAR 12:030. Licenses that meet the requirements will begin printing this week. If your submission is not compliant, you will receive a deficiency notification, and your license will not be printed until the issue is corrected. You may use a smartphone camera or an appropriate app to create a passport-style photo, but HEIC or live photos will not be accepted.

Why Public Information Matters

Understanding public information and staying updated on regulatory changes is vital for all beauty professionals. Louisville Beauty Academy is committed to sharing what we know to help our students and alumni navigate their careers successfully. However, it is important to note that regulations and requirements can change frequently.
