Regulations are necessary for the esthetics field and for the protection of the general public.  The regulations as last updated on September 1, 2011 are sound but I would like to see them amended to include Continuing Education.  In order for estheticians to grow in this field, it is imperative that we be required to complete some form of continuing education.  Since the current renewal term is 2 years, I think it appropriate that estheticians complete 10-12 hours of continuing education every two years in order to renew their licenses.
