Code 9586 applies to employers that provide personal grooming services for both men and women involving hair, scalp, face and hands.  The services include hair shampooing, dyeing, styling, cutting, shaping, straightening, setting, drying, permanent waving and wig or hairpiece fitting, and facial massage, eyebrow tweezing, shaving, mustache and beard trimming, fingernail care and cosmetology.  Indoor suntanning provided by use of ultraviolet lamps or other means is also assigned to this classification when performed by beauty parlors or barbershops.  Some shops will provide services at customers’ homes or at hospitals.  This classification also includes barber or beauty parlor schools and tanning parlors that operate as separate businesses. 

Additionally, this classification contemplates “make-over salons,” where individuals may receive all or some of the above services and may receive massages and/or partake of steam bath facilities.

Employers engaged in the business of tattooing or body piercing are additionally contemplated by this classification.  These operations are analogous to beauty salon work involving dyes and needles to affix permanent eyebrows and eyeliners to a customer’s face.  Body piercing in this context refers to puncturing a body part such as an earlobe to enable the customer to wear earrings or other ornamental decorations that are intended to be worn on a punctured body part.
