What is the composition of the Board of Cosmetology?

  1. 5 cosmetologists and 2 dermatologists

  2. 5 estheticians and 2 laypersons

  3. 5 cosmetologists and 2 laypersons

  4. 6 cosmetologists and 1 layperson

The correct answer is: 5 cosmetologists and 2 laypersons

The correct answer has 5 cosmetologists and 2 laypersons because in most states, the Board of Cosmetology is made up of professionals within the industry, such as cosmetologists and estheticians, as well as non-industry professionals who provide a different perspective, such as laypersons. Option A is incorrect because it only includes cosmetologists and dermatologists, while option B is incorrect because it only includes estheticians and laypersons. Option D is also incorrect because it has an incorrect ratio of cosmetologists to laypersons. Therefore, C is the most accurate representation of the typical composition of a Board of Cosmetology.
