Update: Kansas court case on sugaring regulation to continue
Date postedNovember 14, 2024
A Kansas court granted a preliminary victory to Bryn Green, who challenged state licensing requirements for sugaring, a hair removal technique. Green, represented by the Kansas Justice Institute, argues that the state’s requirement of 1,500 hours of cosmetology training—largely unrelated to sugaring—places unnecessary burdens on entrepreneurs. The court’s decision allows her lawsuit to proceed. In the last legislative session, Kansas lawmakers approved a bill to remove licensing requirements for sugarers, but the governor vetoed it, citing health concerns.
