When TDLR changes a continuing-education requirement, a fee, an exam, or a renewal deadline, it announces it once and moves on. This is the running log: what changed, when it takes effect, which licenses it hits, and a link to the rule itself.
Each entry is written from the TDLR notice and links to the original rule — always confirm against the source before you act on it, and check the effective date. TDLR is the authority; we track and date the changes so you don't have to watch for them.
We monitor TDLR's barbering and cosmetology notices directly. The moment a rule, fee, CE requirement, or exam change is announced, it gets dated and posted here.
A rule change usually makes one of our guides out of date. These are the pages that carry the current requirements — if an update above is newer than what a guide says, the update is the newer fact.
