Licenses, application pathways and examination requirements

Each license and applicant pathway has its own requirements and exemptions. Choosing practice questions does not determine your eligibility.

Esthetician

Personal license to practice esthetics. Statutory exceptions for charitable work and supervised practice do not create separate volunteer or medical-esthetician licenses. The Board FAQ expressly states that temporary licenses are not issued. Establishment and school licenses are separate business authorizations under Chapter 58.
