i am a licensed cosmetologist in both virginia and maryland. when it comes to review, i recommend that it be allow for estheticians who have done an apprenticeship in another state with equalivalent hours to va to be allowed reciprocity. first hand i have seen ladies who are more knowledgeable in the esthetics field than some of the cosmetologists. Yet, va still refuses to give them reciprocity to work in the state. this is wrong. they have been trained equally if not more than any student. Virginia should allow reciprocity to estheticians who have successfully completed an apprentice program and passed a state board exam
