§590. Renewal of certificates of registration

A.(1) Every beauty shop owner, booth renter, manager of a beauty shop, and school shall, on or before January thirty-first of each calendar year, renew his or its certificate of registration. Every certificate of registration which has not been timely renewed shall expire on the following first day of March, at which time the holder of such certificate of registration may have his certificate renewed only upon fulfilling the requirements provided for by this Chapter and paying the restoration fee provided in R.S. 37:599.

(2) Every registered cosmetologist, esthetician, manicurist, or teacher who continues to actively practice his licensed profession shall renew his certificate of registration on or before such individual's date of birth, and such certificate shall expire thirty days following the date of birth if not renewed.

B. Any holder of a certificate of registration who retires from his authorized practice for more than three years may resume his practice and renew his certificate of registration upon satisfactory proof that he is qualified to resume, which shall be provided by a short form examination conducted by the examination team. Such renewals may be facilitated by attending a "brush up" course conducted by an approved school and paying the appropriate fee set forth in R.S. 37:599.

C. Persons registered in Louisiana who maintain a license or registration to practice outside of the state shall be considered as having maintained an active practice during the term covered by such foreign certificate.
