BOARD OF COSMETOLOGY vs. JOYCE MCCLAIN, 75-000597 (1975)
Division of Administrative Hearings, Florida Number: 75-000597 Latest Update: Jan. 19, 1977

The Issue Whether Respondent Joyce McClain practiced cosmetology without the presence and supervision of a master cosmetologist.

Findings Of Fact Two inspectors from the Board of Cosmetology entered the premises of the Seligman & Latz, Inc. beauty salon, d/b/a May Cohen Beauty Salon, late in the evening of September 19, 1974 and observed the Respondent Joyce McClain combing out the hair of a customer. Joyce McClain was not a master cosmetologist at that time and there was no master cosmetologist directly supervising the work of the cosmetologist Joyce McClain. The inspectors for the Board of Cosmetology observed the Respondent working, discussed the work with her, wrote a violation, presented it to her and departed the premises having found no master cosmetologist in the area in which the Respondent Joyce McClain was working or in the area in which the customers were invited to come and in which the employees practiced the art of cosmetology on the customers. The act of combing out the hair of another person is practicing the art of cosmetology as defined in Section 477.03, Florida Statutes.

Recommendation Suspend the license of Respondent cosmetologist Joyce McClain for a period of not less than one (1) and not more than thirty (30) days. DONE and ORDERED this 29th day of January, 1976.

BOARD OF COSMETOLOGY vs. VIRGINIA JARNECKE, D/B/A LA PETITE COIFFURES, 77-001018 (1977)
Division of Administrative Hearings, Florida Number: 77-001018 Latest Update: Oct. 06, 1977

The Issue Whether the license of Respondent should be revoked, annulled, withdrawn or suspended for operating a cosmetology salon without a certificate of registration.

Findings Of Fact An Administrative Complaint was filed against licensee, Virginia Jarnecke, who holds License No. Salon 24158, on the 31st of May, 1977, alleging that she did operate a cosmetology salon without a valid certificate of registration after having been warned and supplied with the proper form in July of 1976 at the La Petite Coiffures in Daytona Beach, Florida. The Respondent filed an Answer on the 24th day of June, 1977, entering a plea of not guilty to the Administrative Complaint. The inspector for the board inspected the Respondent shop in July of 1976 and found that there had been a change in ownership of the salon. She informed the Respondent new owner that the salon registration was nontransferable and that a new registration would have to be applied for and obtained. At that time she left a form designated BC-7 for use of the Respondent. On September 24, 1976 no license had been obtained and a violation of notice was written by the inspector. A license was obtained thereafter in November of 1976. The owner of the shop, Respondent Virginia Jarnecke, had waited to send in her application for registration of said shop until one of the employees obtained a license as master cosmetologist. She did not obtain a registration for the salon until November of 1976 although an application form had been' left by the Petitioner, State Board of Cosmetology, to change the registration from the former owner in July of 1976.

Recommendation Write a letter of reprimand to Respondent for the reason that there was unnecessary delay between the time the Respondent bought subject beauty salon and the time in which application for registration of the salon. DONE and ORDERED this 18th day of August, 1977, in Tallahassee, Florida. DELPHENE C.

BOARD OF COSMETOLOGY vs. ADELINA PORTUONDO, 83-002053 (1983)
Division of Administrative Hearings, Florida Number: 83-002053 Latest Update: Nov. 09, 1983

Findings Of Fact Respondent, Adelina Portuondo, is the holder of License Number CL 0089302 issued by Petitioner, Department of Professional Regulation, Florida State Board of Cosmetology. The license authorizes Respondent to perform cosmetology services. She has held the license since 1976. On or about December 24, 1982, a Department inspector visited the premises known as Delores Beauty Salon, located at 2214 Collins Avenue, Miami Beach, Florida. The visit was prompted by the fact that the Delores Beauty Salon was delinquent in renewing its license with Petitioner. While conducting the inspection, the inspector observed two apparent employees working with customers in chairs. Before the inspector was able to check the license of one of them, a Latin male, who was performing cosmetology services on a client, the Latin male quickly departed the premises. The inspector was told the male's name was either "Jorge" or "Jose," but that no other information regarding that individual was available. Respondent was not on the premises when the inspection was made, but, after being called from her other shop, she arrived a short time later. Portuondo advised the inspector that the male's name was "Jose," that he was there for a "tryout," had just arrived from Cuba and had been referred by someone at her other beauty salon. She also advised that she had just purchased the salon and was in the process of transferring ownership to her name. At the time the inspection was made, Delores Beauty Shop held no current licenses to provide either cosmetology or barber services to the public. The inspector then visited Respondent's other salon, Lena's of New York, and learned that the Latin male's name was actually Jose Bahamonde. Respondent told the inspector that Bahamonde was only a manager of the salon, whose duties included opening and closing the shop, cleaning and the like, but that he performed no professional services. Lena's of New York was apparently licensed by the Board as a cosmetology salon. On April 5, 1983, a Department inspector again visited the beauty salon operated by Respondent at 2214 Collins Avenue, Miami Beach. Respondent had signs indicating the business was now being operated as Lina Beauty Salon II, Inc. The inspector found Bahamonde on the premises and told him it was illegal to practice cosmetology and barbering without appropriate licenses. Bahamonde told the inspector he had taken the examination and was awaiting the results. The inspector returned the next day, April 6, and found Bahamonde cutting a customer's hair. The Respondent was not present on the premises. After being called by telephone, Respondent arrived shortly thereafter and denied that Bahamonde was providing professional services. Instead, she claimed he was working as a cashier and cleaning up the premises. At that time, she also produced records to show she had purchased the salon on October 5, 1982. Official Department records reflect that Bahamonde was issued cosmetology License No. CL 0141942 on July 26, 1983. Those records also reflect that as recent as October 20, 1983, Lina Beauty Salon II, Inc., held no active cosmetology or barbershop licenses. The records do indicate, however, that Respondent applied for a cosmetology salon license for the establishment in April, 1983, but the application was denied on May 9, 1983, on the ground it was incomplete. No license has been issued to Delores Beauty Salon, Inc., since its purchase by Respondent.

Recommendation Based on the foregoing Findings of Fact and Conclusions of Law, it is RECOMMENDED that Respondent be found guilty of violating Subsection 477.029(1)(b), Florida Statutes, in December, 1982, and April, 1983; violating Subsection 477.029(1)(c), Florida Statutes, in December, 1982; and violating Subsections 477.028(2)(b) and 477.029(1)(c), Florida Statutes, in April, 1983. It is further RECOMMENDED that a $250 administrative fine be imposed on Respondent for each violation, for a total of $1,000, and that such fine be paid within thirty (30) days of the date of the final order entered in this cause. RECOMMENDED this 9th day of November, 1983, in Tallahassee, Florida. DONALD R. ALEXANDER Hearing Officer Division of Administrative Hearings The Oakland Building 2009 Apalachee Parkway Tallahassee, Florida 32301 (904) 488-9675 Filed with the Clerk of the Division of Administrative Hearings this 9th day of November, 1983.

BOARD OF COSMETOLOGY vs. JOHN S. KUBIE AND SELIGMAN AND LATZ, INC., 77-001007 (1977)
Division of Administrative Hearings, Florida Number: 77-001007 Latest Update: Nov. 07, 1977

The Issue Whether the license of Respondent should be revoked, annulled, withdrawn or suspended for allowing two unlicensed persons to practice cosmetology in the beauty salon licensed as May Cohen's Soul Sissors.

Findings Of Fact A joint motion to consolidate the above styled cases was made for the reason that the charges grew out of the same incident. The motion was granted. A motion was made requesting permission for the Respondent to file affidavits late and the permissions was granted without objection by the Petitioner but with a reservation to file objections when the affidavits were filed. The affidavits were filed July 26, 1977 and are a part of the record. No objection has been filed by Petitioner and the thirty days from date of hearing allotted by the Hearing Officer has expired. The statements in the affidavit are consistent with the evidence and testimony at the hearing and with the findings of facts herein. The Administrative Complaints were issued on May 31, 1977 against John S. Kubie, President of Seligman & Latz, Inc., and against the salon May Cohen's Soul Sinners charging: "That you, said SELIGMAN & LATZ, INC. d/b/a May Cohen's Soul Sissors on January 7, 1977 did allow two unlicensed persons to practice in your salon, at May Cohen's Soul Sissors, Jacksonville, Florida." On January 7, 1977, the inspector for the Board entered the May Cohen's Soul Sinners Beauty Shop and found therein two unlicensed persons. One person, Willie Dock, who is an employee of Nay Cohen's Soul Sinners, had not secured a Florida license and was working without a license in the subject salon and without a license or permit posted as required. He had not informed the manager that his permit had expired on December 30, 1976. The other person, Margaret Florence, was working although her license had been altered to appear as if it were current. It was of a different color than the current licenses of other cosmetologists in the shop and in fact it had expired. The manager should have ascertained whether these people were duly licensed and knew or should have known they were not properly licensed.

Recommendation Suspend the license of May Cohen's Soul Sissors for a period of seven (7) days. DONE and ORDERED this 26th day of August, 1977, in Tallahassee, Florida. DELPHENE C.
