What is Salon Professionals Alliance?
Salon Professionals Alliance, LLC is an association that Chesley created on 6.16.2020 after she witnessed yet another form of deregulation.
Deregulation occurs when the government removes our right to practice something from our scope of practice, or reduces our requirements for school or continuing education.
Deregulation is when we have been properly trained and licensed to perform a task and now we can't.
That is exactly what happened with Esthetics last year. Some of the services Estheticians performed have been "removed", as LL&R has enforced a new "interpretation" of exactly what we can do...
Watching Unlicensed & Unsanitary practice, and witnessing deregulation for the last 33+ years, she decided to do something about it.
History
Chesley has a background as a legal secretary and paralegal, before she came to this industry.
She opened up the gate for ALL CE Providers since 1996.
When she came in there were only FIVE Providers, and their company names were written in the law, as the ONLY CE Providers for SC.
Now there are around 80!
She also achieved getting legislation changed so that if someone has been licensed long enough, never let their license lapse, and have never been in trouble with the SC SBOC, they can be exempt from CE!
In the same law, licensees could attend Trade Shows for credit hours!
Those two changes infuriated other Providers, they wanted EVERYONE to HAVE to attend CE's in SC.
So yes, Chesley continues to make history.
