Findings Of Fact Patricia Strange began as a cosmetologist in North Carolina in 1966. Since October of 1977 she has practiced cosmetology in Panama City, Florida. The administrative complaint filed in the present case is the first complaint ever made by any public authority against her as a cosmetologist. Ms. Strange holds cosmetology license No. CL0059441. Petitioner's Exhibit No. 1. On November 13, 1970, the State Board of Cosmetology issued a "Certificate of Registration To Operate A Cosmetology Salon," No. 14877, for Pat's Petite Beauty Salon, 1848 Beck Avenue, Panama City, Florida. Under this license, respondent Strange operated a beauty salon for ten or eleven years. In early 1981, the building in which respondent operated her salon was sold, and she was asked to move the salon. She was given one month's notice that the salon lease, which expired April 30, 1981, would not be renewed. During the busy month that ensued, she effected a move to a new building at 2347 St. Andrews Boulevard in Panama City, where she opened for business under the name St. Lynn Gallery of Hair Design on the first Wednesday in May of 1981. She inquired about her city occupational license and was told that she need not worry about getting another until her current occupational license expired. Respondent was unaware of any requirement to obtain a new salon license from petitioner, until August 20, 1981. Charles I. Deckard, an investigator in petitioner's employ, called on respondent on August 20, 1981. When she showed him the salon license, he told her she needed to secure another license for the new location and issued a citation. The very next day respondent closed her shop, telephoned petitioner's Tallahassee office to inquire what documents she would need to secure a new salon license, gathered up all such documents, and made the trip to Tallahassee. She took with her a $40 cashier's check in petitioner's favor, as payment for a new salon license, dated August 21, 1981. Respondent's Exhibit No. 2. Petitioner then issued a new cosmetology salon license to respondent for St. Lynn Gallery of Hair Design.

Findings Of Fact Respondent holds a certificate as a master cosmetologist 0048790 issued by Petitioner on an unspecified date. He also holds a certificate of registration to operate a cosmetology salon license #22903 issued by Petitioner on February 2, 1976. The salon is called Mister Andrew Coiffure, and is located at 1259 East Los Olas Boulevard, Fort Lauderdale, Florida. On January 28, 1976, Petitioner's inspector visited Respondent's place of business, but Respondent was absent. The inspector had visited the shop on previous occasions at which time the Respondent had told him he was in the process of buying the salon, and the inspector had left an application for a state certificate of registration for a cosmetology salon. The inspector noticed there was no sign near the front door indicating that the premises were occupied by beauty or cosmetology salon. There was a card in the window which read "Mister Andrew Coiffure" (Testimony of Rubin). Respondent submitted a letter on his behalf dated June 9, 1976, which stated that he had not owned the salon at the time Petitioner's inspector had provided him with application forms for a state license. He claimed that he had had a card attached to the sign in his window which read "Beauty Salon" on January 28, 1976, but that since the inspector had not been satisfied with the card he has since changed the sign and put up 1 inch decal letters on the door spelling "Beauty Salon" (Exhibit 1). Respondent's application for a salon certificate was executed on January 29, 1976 and received by Petitioner on February 2, 1976.

The Issue Whether the license of the Respondent, Carmelina Denur, should be revoked, annulled, withdrawn or suspended for operating a cosmetology salon without a salon registration certificate.
Findings Of Fact The inspector for the Petitioner, State Board of Cosmetology, entered a large utility room at the home of Respondent and found therein a cosmetology station with the usual mirrors, chairs , desks and cosmetology supplies, including an appointment book near the telephone. At the time of the visit of the inspector on May 27. 1977, the Respondent, Carmelina Debur, was doing a comb-out. Another woman was sitting in a chair in the area. The inspector determined that the Respondent was operating a beauty salon in her home without a registration and wrote a violation notice. The Respondent contended: that she had been retired six months from her job as a cosmetologist and that the furnishings for a salon in her home were for the benefit of her relatives and close friends and that she was not operating a beauty salon in her home. She stated that the area was a residential area and that her uncle gave her the salon equipment when he remodeled his store, and that she bought the cosmetology supplies inasmuch as she had a license and could buy it for personal use. She testified that she received no money from anyone and was not conducting a business in the beauty salon area of her home. There was no testimony or other evidence to show that the Respondent was in fact operating a beauty salon in her home.

Findings Of Fact Upon request of the attorney for the Complainant, the Complaint was amended to reflect that Hersam Beauty Salons, Inc., operates the Respondent salon, Grant's Beauty Salon. The Notice of Hearing was answered by letter from Hersam Beauty Salons, Inc., through its Secretary and Treasurer, Sam Friedman, by letter dated June 6, 1975. Said letter expressed amazement that the master cosmetologist employed by said Hersam Beauty Salons, Inc., who directs and supervises Grant's Beauty Salon, Tamps, Florida, was not on duty at the time the violation was written up and during the time the salon was open for the business of practicing the art of cosmetology. Grant's Beauty Salon was in operation and not under the direct supervision or management of a master cosmetologist.
Recommendation Suspend the registration of Grant's Beauty Salon for a period of thirty (30) days. DONE AND ENTERED this 29 day of August 1975 in Tallahassee, Florida. DELPHENE C.

Findings Of Fact Respondent, Secret de Femme d/b/a Secret de Femme Hair Sculpture, operates a cosmetology salon at 65 Northwest 54th Street, Miami, Florida. It is the holder of cosmetology salon license number 0040317 issued by petitioner, Department of Professional Regulation, Board of Cosmetology (Board). Respondent, Gaston Eugene, does not hold any licenses issued by the Board. On or about November 5, 1987, a Board investigator, Frank Hautzinger, made a routine inspection of respondent's salon. 1/ When he entered the premises, he found a few persons in the salon, including one seated in a barber's chair. According to Hautzinger, respondent, Gaston Eugene, was "finishing up" the person seated in the chair. By this, Hautzinger meant that Eugene was brushing around the person's neck and collar as if he had just given that person a haircut. However, he did not actually see Eugene cutting hair, and Eugene received no compensation for his "services." Because Eugene speaks little or no English, Hautzinger was unable to carry on a meaningful dialogue with Eugene. He did learn that Eugene did not have a cosmetology license. A short time later, one of the owners, Amantha Jean-Joseph, returned to the salon. When questioned by Hautzinger about Eugene, she described Eugene as a temporary employee obtained through a local employment service. However, at hearing she denied making this statement. Both owners emphatically denied that Eugene was authorized to cut hair. Instead, they described his role as being limited to cleaning up the working area, cleaning barber tools, and opening and closing the shop. According to Amantha, on the day that Hautzinger visited the shop, Eugene had simply agreed to cut a nose hair of a friend and nothing more.
Recommendation Based on the foregoing findings of fact and conclusions of law, it is RECOMMENDED that all charges be DISMISSED.

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).
