I would complain to the owner and insist that the cosmetologist get up to standards, like everyone else, or I will find a different salon to work at that is up to MY standards.
I know that you do not want to move and hopefully if you confront the owner with your complaint she will tell the hair dresser that she cannot work any more until she posts a valid license. It's the holidays, hold her feet to the fire and she will comply. The owner needs to grow a pair and stand up for HER salon. This is HER business with all HER money in it. I just do not get stupid people. Back when I owned a salon, I hired a new nail tech. She kept "forgetting" to bring her license into the salon and get it hung up. I got a new frame to match the rest and had it already on the wall ready for her. After 1 week I told her that I would not book any more clients with her until she produced her license. She confessed that her licensed had expired. I told her to get it straightened out before she could work one more day at MY salon. Never heard from her again. I needed her, too. I was turning away business daily. It's just not worth any profit to employ an unlicensed tech, period!

Think about this: we bitch and moan about the chop shops and "nss" with their unlicensed employees. This is no different. If the word gets out that "Gina from such and such salon" is not licensed, it will turn into just "THAT salon hires unlicensed employees." The reputation of your salon is at stake. I see Sue's point, but we are striving for industry standards and right now Aimee's salon is falling below standard. Just like the chop shops, if I found out there were unlicensed workers, I would find another salon. Geezus how hard is it to get online and renew? (unless you are in PA which has THE most unfriendly website ever) JMHO..... Buenos dias!

Let's just say letters had been sent, checks bounced,etc. Yes, this person was present at the salon during the inspection and even chatted with the inspector (but it seemed friendly not about the license issue). Now maybe the hairdresser will get more letters from the state board, but come on! This is now over a year old issue. The salon owners are never in the salon and are not in the business (they have other careers and opened the salon as a business venture). We are all booth renters. Would one person with this issue shut the whole salon down when we booth rent?
