Any person who successfully completes a course of education in an approved and licensed school in this state, or in any other licensed cosmetology, nail technology, or esthetics school, as applicable, not located within this state that is shown to the satisfaction of the commission to be comparable, may apply to the commission for a temporary license which will authorize the applicant to perform all the practices of a regularly licensed cosmetologist, nail technician, or esthetician, as applicable. The application shall be accompanied by:

(1) Evidence satisfactory to the commission that the course of education has been successfully completed;

(2) The fee for a temporary license as provided in this chapter; and

(3) The application and fee for a cosmetologist, nail technician, or esthetician examination, as applicable.

A temporary license issued by the commission is valid until the date of the next scheduled examination in cosmetology, nail technology, or esthetics, as applicable. If the holder of a temporary license takes the applicable examination at that time, the commission shall extend the temporary license until the result of the examination is mailed to the person. If a person is not excused from the examination by the commission or fails the examination, the temporary license is invalid and may not be extended or reissued.
