The Issue Whether the license of Respondent should be revoked, annulled, withdrawn or suspended for operation of a beauty salon in her home without a license in violation of Section 477.15(9), F.S., and Rule 21F-3.O1, F.A.C.
Findings Of Fact The Respondent, Catherine Birdsall, was cited on September 10, 1976, for operating a beauty salon in her home without a salon license by Inspector Geraldine Padgett. The Respondent, Birdsall, had a beauty salon set up in her home which could have been eligible for licensing by the Petitioner had her home been in a properly zoned area. Mrs. Birdsall was in fact operating a beauty salon although she was not charging her customers in money. It was a situation in which Mrs. Birdsall was practicing cosmetology so that she could be employed in another beauty salon as a cosmetologist. The patrons of Mrs. Birdsall repaid her for her cosmetology efforts by paying her for supplies and by doing other work for her on a barter- type arrangement. The Respondent is not now operating a beauty salon in her home and is now employed elsewhere.
Recommendation Send a Respondent a written reprimand for violation of the statutes and rules. DONE and ORDERED this 5th day of August, 1977, in Tallahassee, Florida. DELPHENE C.

Findings Of Fact A copy of the Administrative Complaint with Election of Remedies, Salon License No.l 6766, and the receipt for certified mail were received into evidence without objection and marked Composite Exhibit 1. Respondent admitted that she was guilty of the violation charged.
Findings Of Fact A copy of the Administrative Complaint with an attachment of Ms. Rolling's Salon License No. 10810 and receipt of certified mail was entered into evidence and marked as Exhibit 1 without objection. Ms. Rolling's Election of Remedies form was entered into evidence and marked Exhibit 2 without objection. The Respondent holds License No. 10810. Respondent admitted that she did allow two (2) cosmetologists to work in her salon while she was absent. Respondent is a master cosmetologist who ordinarily works in the salon which she supervises and manages. The Respondent, Frances Rolling, has been in ill health and did leave the salon to visit a doctor's office and during the time she allowed cosmetologists to work without the direct supervision of a master cosmetologist.
The Issue Whether Respondent, Bernice Benbow, allowed a non-licensed person to practice cosmetology in her beauty salon. Whether Respondent's license should be revoked, annulled, withdrawn, or suspended, or whether some other disciplinary action should be taken.
Findings Of Fact Respondent, Bernice Benbow is doing business as Bernice's Beauty Salon in Cocoa, Florida. Notice of Service was entered without objection and marked Exhibit 1. The Complaint with the license attached thereto was entered into evidence as Exhibit 2 without objection. Respondent was working in said salon on the date reported herein and left the salon during working hours. Carrie Shingles, a non-licensed, non-registered person, washed the hair of a customer at said salon on said date. Carrie Shingles was not employed to serve as a cosmetologist and is not a registered cosmetologist. Carrie Shingles denied that she had the permission of Respondent to practice cosmetology. Said witness said that her duties were to fold towels and perform other non- cosmetology duties in the salon. When Respondent, Bernice Benbow, returned to the salon on the day in question, she set the hair of the customer that Carrie Shingles had shampooed and collected a fee for said shampoo and set but denied that she gave permission to Carrie Shingles to shampoo said customer.
Findings Of Fact Upon consideration of the oral and documentary evidence adduced at the hearing, the following facts are found: At all times material to this proceeding, the Respondent has been licensed to practice cosmetology in the State of Florida, having been issued Florida cosmetology license, number CL 0057719. At all times material to this proceeding, the Respondent had been the owner of a cosmetology salon named Bikini Unisex Beauty Salon, located at 2500 East Hallandale Beach Boulevard, Hallandale, Florida, although at the time of the hearing Respondent had sold his interest in Bikini Unisex Beauty Salon. At all times material to this proceeding, the Respondent was licensed to operate the Bikini Unisex Beauty Salon as a cosmetology salon, having been issued Florida cosmetology salon license number, CE 0025617. On September 7, 1984, Alexa Aracha (Aracha), an inspector employed by Petitioner, conducted a routine inspection at Bikini Unisex Beauty Salon to check for compliance with sanitation and licensure requirements. At the time of the inspection, Mamie L. Thompson (Thompson) was shampooing the hair of a salon customer. Respondent has admitted that Thompson was employed by him, d/b/a Unisex Bikini Beauty Salon, as a cosmetologist the past fourteen (14) years. Thompson's cosmetology license, number CL 0031825, expired on June 30, 1984, and was not renewed until November 17, 1984. Although it appears that Thompson had completed the necessary hours of continuing education to have her license renewed, the record is clear that between July 1, 1984 and November 17, 1984 Thompson's cosmetology license, number CL 0031825, was in an inactive status. Respondent, due to Thompson's length of employment with him, did not check Thompson's license to see if it was current and was unaware that her license had expired. At the time of the inspection, Linda S. Marlowe (Marlowe) was present in the salon but was not working. Respondent's appointment book indicated that Marlowe had scheduled appointments for the afternoon of the day of the inspection. Respondent admitted that Marlowe was employed by him, d/b/a Bikini Unisex Beauty Salon, as a cosmetologist, and had worked a couple of days just prior to the inspection. The record is clear that Marlowe's cosmetology license, number CL 0057700, expired June 30, 1984, and was not renewed until January 16, 1985. Although it appears that Marlowe had completed the necessary hours of continuing education to have her license renewed the record is clear that between July 1, 1984 and January 16, 1985 Marlowe's cosmetology license, number CL 0057700, was in an inactive status. The record shows that there had been sickness in Marlowe's family and due to this sickness, she did not have the necessary funds to renew her license. Again, due to Marlowe's length of employment with Respondent, Respondent did not check Marlowe's license to see if it was current and was unaware that her license had expired. At all times material to this proceeding, Linda S. Marlowe and Mamie L. Thompson were not licensed to practice barbering in the State of Florida.
Recommendation Based upon the findings of fact and conclusions of law recited herein, it is RECOMMENDED that the charge of violating Section 477.0265(1)(b)2., (1)(d), Florida Statutes (1983) be dismissed. It is further RECOMMENDED that Respondent be found guilty of the violation of Section 477.029(1)(c), Florida Statues (1983). For such violation, considering the mitigating circumstances surrounding the violation, it is RECOMMENDED that the Board of Cosmetology issue a letter of Reprimand to the Respondent.

The Issue Whether the Respondent did practice cosmetology in her home without a valid salon license in violation of Section 477.02(1)(3), F.S. and Rule 21F-3.10, F.A.C.
Findings Of Fact Mrs. Brenda J. Lopsenzski is the holder of cosmetology license No. 0081729. Mrs. Margaret L. Boswell, Inspector for the Board of Cosmetology, entered the home of Respondent at which time Respondent was shampooing a lady's hair in her home. The home was not properly equipped as a beauty salon at the time of the inspection b Mrs. Boswell and there were no patrons in the home other than the lady upon whose hair the Respondent was working. The testimony of the Respondent which I believe to be the facts and which were not denied by the Inspector for the Board were as follows: Respondent held a junior license and in order to keep her skill and in order to do favors for a few friends, would style hair for these friends. She charged them no fee and "practiced" both for her benefit and the benefit of a few friends. The actions of Respondent as shown by the testimony and evidence are not a violation of Chapter 477, F.S. or Rule 21F-3.10, F.A.C.
Recommendation Dismiss the complaint. DONE and ORDERED this 5th day of August, 1976. DELPHENE C.

Findings Of Fact At all times material to this proceeding, the Respondent was the owner of Palm Beauty Salon located at 5084 N.E. 2nd Avenue, Miami, Florida. At all times material to this proceeding, Respondent Fanfan was licensed to operate Palm Beauty Salon as a cosmetology salon, having been issued Florida Cosmetology salon license number CE 0038205. Respondent Fanfan was not licensed to practice cosmetology in the State of Florida at any time. On August 19, 1985, Sharon Banks Geter (Geter), inspector for the Petitioner, inspected the Palm Beauty Salon and was accompanied by another inspector, Anthony Destro (Destro). At the time of the inspection on August 19, 1985, Adelaide Baltazar (Baltazar) and Myrtha Janvier (Janvier) were found to be performing cosmetology services in the Palm Beauty Salon. However, the evidence was insufficient to prove that Baltazar and Janvier were employed by Respondent Fanfan. Neither the Respondent nor Marie Herard (Herard) the manager of Palm Beauty Salon, were present when Geter and Destro inspected the Palm Beauty Salon on August 19, 1985. At all times material to this proceeding, Baltazar and Janvier were not licensed to practice cosmetology in the State of Florida.
Recommendation Based upon the Findings of Fact and Conclusions of Law recited herein, it is RECOMMENDED that the Board of Cosmetology enter a final order DISMISSING the Administrative Complaint filed against Respondent Fanfan.

The Issue Whether Respondent should be fined for alleged violations of Chapter 477, Florida Statutes, occurring prior to her licensure.
Findings Of Fact Respondent, Catherine Shepherd, is the owner of a cosmetics studio named Merle Norman Cosmetics. The studio is located at 13275 South 14th Street, Leesburg, Florida 32748. Her primary business is the sale of cosmetics to the public. A very small portion of her business is nail sculpting. Except for the nail sculpting, Respondent is not otherwise subject to the strictures of Chapter 477, Florida Statutes. Respondent, dba Merle Norman, is a licensed cosmetology salon in the State of Florida having been issued license number CE 0048712. Respondent obtained her license January 24, 1989, after Petitioner's investigator informed her that the law required her to have a cosmetology salon license in order to do nails at her establishment. Prior to January 24, 1989, Respondent was not licensed as a cosmetology salon. When the cosmetology statutes were last adopted, Respondent was informed by the Board's investigator that she would have to employ a licensed cosmetologist in order to do nails at her studio. Respondent thence forward employed a licensed nail sculptor to perform this service. However, the Board's investigator did not inform Respondent that she was also required to have a cosmetology salon license to employ a licensed nail sculptor. She was, therefore, unaware that the law required such a license. Respondent operated as a cosmetology salon without a license for approximately two years.
Recommendation Based on the foregoing Findings of Fact and Conclusions of Law, it is RECOMMENDED that the Board of Cosmetology enter a Final Order fining the Respondent one hundred dollars ($100.00). DONE and ENTERED this 18th day of July, 1989, in Tallahassee, Florida.
