(1)   Each instructor, student training in a school or apprentice training in an Establishment shall be dressed in a washable tightly woven crisp fabric which shall readily shed hair clippings and/or other airborne particles.

(2)   Tank or tube tops, sleeveless tops, high heels, and open toe footwear are considered by the Board to be unsafe and unsanitary attire for any student while training in the theory and practical practices of cosmetology or barbering.

(b)   It shall be the responsibility of the managing instructor of a school to dismiss any student not in compliance with uniform dress code from clinic or theory class until such time as the student is in Board approved uniform dress code.
