California LawQuestion 95 of 100
Which requirement applies to a licensed skin care establishment in California?
a.It must hold a current establishment license and provide hot and cold running water and clean restroom facilities, and may not be used as living quarters with a direct opening into the service area
b.Services may be performed in any private residence without a separate establishment license
c.Running water is required only if chemical peels are performed
d.An establishment license may be shared among several unrelated business locations
Explanation
An establishment must be separately licensed, maintain hot and cold running water and sanitary restroom facilities, and be physically separated from living quarters. A residence used to provide services must meet the same establishment requirements. Water is fundamental to sanitation for every service, not just peels, and an establishment license applies to one specific location.
