(Des Moines, IA) — The Iowa Senate has unanimously approved a bill designed to let licensed professionals cut hair in far more locations, including salons-on-wheels. Senator Jason Schultz, a Republican from Schleswig, says it follows the 2020 law that legalized mobile barbershops. State regulations currently require salons to be in fixed locations. The bill passed by the Senate says professional haircutters in Iowa would no longer be restricted to cutting hair in a cosmetology school or a licensed barbershop or salon. Bill backers originally envisioned the change would let customers get their hair cut at their own homes. Last year, a law change let cosmetologists style hair in a wedding venue without getting a temporary license to do so.
