Iowa - There is a Cosmetology Arts and Science license and a Salon (Establishment) license and as long as the Salon is licensed, the way licensees get paid left up to the owner. But issues are brought before the Board all the time….mostly from frustrated wage paying (tax paying) salon people. Because of the way the statute is written, the Board is limited on what they can regulate in terms of booth rental. The most recent administrative rule written to regulate independent contractors was mostly directed at multiple salons under one roof vs. multiple “booths”. The rule reads, “A separate enclosed area inside a salon that is operated as an independent business for the purpose of providing cosmetology service shall be considered its own salon and shall not operate unless a salon license is obtained."
