RE:   Legality of a mobile barber/beauty shop based on the inter-
pretation of the definition of a shop as provided in C.R.S.
1973, 12-8-103(4) (1978 repl. vol, 5)
AG Alpha No. RG BR AGAMH
AG File No. ORL8400001/AMH
Dear Ms. Wells:
This opinion is in response to your letter of November 15, 1983
in which you inquired about whether a mobile barber/beauty shop
must be licensed by the State Board of Barbers and Cosmetolo-
gists.
QUE5ILQ PRESENTED- ANQCONCLUSION
Your request for an attorney gernral's opinion presents the fol-
lowing question:
Whether pursuant to the laws governing the practice of barbering
and cosmetology in Colorado one must obtain a barbershop or
beauty salon license from the State Board of Barbers and Cosme-
tologists (hereinafter the board) before operating a mobile
unit in which one or more persons engage in the practice of bar-
bering or cosmetology.
My conclusion is no, It is my opinion that the legislature has
authorized the board to regulate barbering and cosmetology estab-
lishments of fixed location only. The board has not been author-
ized to license mobile shops. Furthermore, nothing in the laws
governing barbering and cosmetology prohibits a licensed barber
or cosmetologist from providing barber or cosmetology services
outside of a licensed shop. Nevertheless, the board has author-
ity to regulate such services outside of a licensed shop through
licensure of all individual practitioners of barbering and cosme-
tology.
