  • Beyoncé Joins Phoenix House for the Opening of the Beyoncé Cosmetology Center at the Phoenix House Career Academy
    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Pop Superstar and Music Icon Beyoncé Joins Phoenix House For the Opening of the Beyoncé Cosmetology Center at the Phoenix House Career Academy New York, New York—March 5, 2010—Phoenix House, the nation’s leading non- profit provider of substance abuse and prevention services, today announces the opening of the Beyoncé Cosmetology Center at the Phoenix House Career Academy. A residential treatment program with a fully equipped vocational training center on site, the Career Academy, located in Brooklyn, NY, guides students as they work toward their professional and personal goals. Adding a new track to the Career Academy’s vocational programs, the Beyoncé Cosmetology Center will offer a seven-month cosmetology training course for adult men and women. As Beyoncé is a spokesperson for L’Oréal Paris, the company is generously providing all makeup, skin care, and hair care products. The pop superstar’s relationship with Phoenix House began when she was preparing for the role of Etta James in the 2008 film Cadillac Records. To play the part of the former heroin addict, Beyoncé met with women in treatment at the Career Academy. Moved by their powerful stories of addiction and recovery, she later donated her salary from the film. A year later, she and her mother and business partner, fashion designer Tina Knowles, who owned a popular hair salon in Houston when Beyoncé was growing up, conceived of the idea of Phoenix House’s new cosmetology program. “We were thrilled when Beyoncé and her mother Tina approached us about creating a cosmetology center for our clients,” said Phoenix House President and CEO Howard Meitiner.

    BUSINESS, CONSUMER SERVICES, AND HOUSING AGENCY – GOVERNOR Edmund G. Brown JR. BOARD OF BARBERING AND COSMETOLOGY P.O. Box 944226, Sacramento, CA 94244-2260 P (800) 952-5210 F (916) 575-7281 www.barbercosmo.ca.gov Industry Bulletin – 8/4/15 – Skin Care Machines/Devices The Board of Barbering and Cosmetology (Board) does not approve or regulate equipment or products used in the barbering and beauty industry. Consequently, the Board provides no opinion on the contemplated use of any machine a licensee is considering purchasing. The Barbering and Cosmetology Act (Act) defines the scope of practice of cosmetology and its specialty branch of skin care. (California Business and Professions Code, section 7316 (b) and (c).) A person licensed as a cosmetologist or esthetician is required to limit their practice and services rendered to the public to only those areas for which they are licensed. (California Business and Professions Code, section 7317.) The Act confers no authority to practice medicine or surgery. (California Business and Professions Code, section 7320.) The Board’s regulations specifically prohibit invasive procedures which results in the removal, destruction, incision, or piercing of a client’s skin beyond the epidermis or the application of electricity which visibly contracts the muscle (Title 16, California Code of Regulations, section 991.) Licensed cosmetologists and estheticians are cautioned not to engage in any invasive procedures. The use of electrical stimulation in providing skin care services falls within the practice of an esthetician under certain conditions. So long as the machines providing the electrical stimulation do not deliver an electrical current that will visibly contract the muscle of the body or face and/or result in the destruction or removal of the skin below the client’s epidermis.
