R 338.2127 Permanent, physical business address; change of ownership or
location; closure; branch facility license.
Rule 27. (1) An establishment or school shall provide a permanent, physical
business address. The permanent, physical business address of a mobile salon is
determined as follows:
(a) If the establishment is a mobile salon as defined in section 1201(o)(i) of the
code, MCL 339.1201, the permanent, physical business address is the physical location
from which the mobile salon is dispatched and to which it returns.
(b) If the establishment is a mobile salon as defined in section 1201(o)(ii) of the
code, MCL 339.1201, the permanent, physical business address is the owner’s premises.
(2) Pursuant to section 1204(4) of the code, MCL 339.1204, the sale or transfer of a
cosmetology establishment voids the owner’s cosmetology establishment license. If a
cosmetology establishment changes ownership, the parties involved shall inform the
department, in writing, within 30 calendar days before the change occurs.
(3) The change in the location of a cosmetology establishment, except for a mobile
salon, voids the owner’s cosmetology establishment license. If a cosmetology
establishment, other than a mobile salon, changes location, the parties involved shall
inform the department, in writing, within 30 calendar days before the change occurs. A
change in the permanent, physical business address of a mobile salon must comply with
the requirements of R 338.2180(3).
(4) Pursuant to section 1205(5) of the code, MCL 339.1205, the sale or other
transfer of a school, a sale or transfer of its ownership, or a change in the location of a
school, including a branch facility, voids the owner’s school of cosmetology license. If a
cosmetology school changes ownership or location, the parties involved shall inform the
department, in writing, within 30 calendar days before making the change.
(5) Within 30 calendar days before a school or establishment that is conducting an
apprenticeship program is closed, changes ownership, or changes its permanent, physical
business address, the school or establishment that is conducting an apprenticeship
program shall provide the department with up-to-date information pertaining to each
student’s or apprentice’s record. The up-to-date information must include all reports and
timesheets that have not previously been reported to the department.
(6) Branch facilities where training by a cosmetology school is conducted in a
physical location apart from the main school premises, may be approved by the
department if the branch facility meets all of the following criteria:
(a) Is not used for training students until the department has approved the use of
the facility, based upon school need.
