Nevada State
Board of Cosmetology
Providing consumer protection in hair, nail, and skin care services since 1931.
Felony Conviction Review
The Board requires that each felony conviction is reviewed and approved by the Executive Director prior to enrollment in to a program, for all violent felonies formal Board review is required. While it is very rare, we'd hate to have a student enroll who could not reach their ultimate goal of licensure. Equally if a student is convicted of a felony during their course of enrollment; that information must also be reviewed and approved by the Board Executive Director.
Required Documentation
• A Final Court Order is needed for applicants with a felony. If a Final Court Order is not available, we need the initial Court Order and the current status of the applicant completing requirements in the Court Order (from the court).
• The applicant must write a letter explaining the incident and what they have learned.
• If the applicant is on Parole/Probation, the applicant must submit a letter of the applicant's current status from the applicable state agency or probation officer in charge of applicant's rehabilitation.
• If the applicant committed a VIOLENT FELONY or a crime that involved a weapon, the applicant will be required to attend a formal Board hearing for review of their application.
