7346.  (a) For purposes of this chapter, "establishment" means any
premises, building or part of a building where any activity licensed
under this chapter is practiced.
   (b) "Establishment" also includes any premises, building, or part
of a building in which natural hair styling is practiced for
compensation.


7347.  Any person, firm, or corporation desiring to operate an
establishment shall make an application to the bureau for a license
accompanied by the fee prescribed by this chapter.  The application
shall be required whether the person, firm, or corporation is
operating a new establishment or obtaining ownership of an existing
establishment.  If the applicant is obtaining ownership of an
existing establishment, the bureau may establish the fee in an amount
less than the fee prescribed by this chapter.  The applicant, if an
individual, or each officer, director, and partner, if the applicant
is other than an individual, shall not have committed acts or crimes
which are grounds for denial of licensure in effect at the time the
new application is submitted pursuant to Section 480.  A license
issued pursuant to this section shall authorize the operation of the
establishment only at the location for which the license is issued.
Operation of the establishment at any other location shall be
unlawful unless a license for the new location has been obtained upon
compliance with this section, applicable to the issuance of a
license in the first instance.



7348.  An establishment shall at all times be in the charge of a
person licensed pursuant to this chapter except an apprentice.



7349.  It is unlawful for any person, firm, or corporation to hire,
employ, or allow to be employed, or permit to work, in or about an
establishment, any person who performs or practices any occupation
regulated under this chapter and is not duly licensed by the  bureau,
except that a licensed cosmetology establishment may utilize a
student extern, as described in Section 7395.1.
   Any person violating this section is subject to citation and fine
pursuant to Section 7406 and is also guilty of a misdemeanor.



7349.1.  It is an unfair business practice for any person, firm, or
corporation who engages in a practice regulated under this chapter to
use the traditional symbol known as the barber pole, which comprises
a striped vertical cylinder with a ball on top, with the intent to
mislead the public in any manner that would make the public believe
that barbering was being practiced in, or that a licensed barber is
employed in, an establishment that does not employ licensed barbers.



7350.  No person having charge of an establishment, whether as an
owner or an employee, shall permit any room or part thereof in which
any occupation regulated under this chapter is conducted or practiced
to be used for residential purposes or for any other purpose that
would tend to make the room unsanitary, unhealthy, or unsafe, or
endanger the health and safety of the consuming public.
   An establishment shall have a direct entrance separate and
distinct from any entrance in connection with private quarters.
   A violation of this section is a misdemeanor.



7351.  Every establishment shall provide at least one public toilet
room located on or near the premises for its patrons.  Any toilet
room installed on or after July 1, 1992, shall be not less than 18
square feet in area.  The entrance to the room shall be effectively
screened so that no toilet compartment is visible from any workroom.
The room shall be kept in a clean condition and in good repair, well
lighted and ventilated to the outside air, and effectively screened
against insects and free from rodents.  The floor shall be of
concrete, tile laid in cement, vitrified brick, or other nonabsorbent
material.  All sewer drains shall be connected to an approved
disposal system, and shall be properly trapped.  No restroom shall be
used for storage.



7352.  Every establishment shall provide adequate and convenient
handwashing facilities, including running water, soap and approved
sanitary towels.


7353.  Within 90 days after issuance of the establishment license,
the bureau or its agents or assistants shall inspect the
establishment for compliance with the applicable requirements of this
chapter and the applicable rules and regulations of the bureau
adopted pursuant to this chapter.  The bureau shall maintain a
program of random and targeted inspections of establishments to
ensure compliance with applicable laws relating to the public health
and safety and the conduct and operation of establishments.  The
bureau or its authorized representatives shall inspect establishments
to reasonably determine compliance levels and to identify market
conditions that require targeted enforcement.  The bureau shall not
reduce the number of employees assigned to perform random
inspections, targeted inspections, and investigations relating to
field operations below the level funded by the annual Budget Act and
described in supporting budget documents, and shall not redirect
funds or personnel-years allocated to those inspection and
investigation purposes to other purposes.
