How can estheticians keep informed about changes in laws and regulations?

Staying informed about changes in laws and regulations is essential for estheticians to ensure compliance and maintain professional standards. Regularly reviewing TDLR communications is the most effective method for obtaining accurate and up-to-date information about legislative updates, changes in practice standards, and new rules. The Texas Department of Licensing and Regulation (TDLR) issues official communications, such as newsletters, updates, and alerts that specifically address regulatory changes that affect estheticians. This direct source of information is reliable and tailored to the needs of professionals in the industry.

While other methods like watching online videos about skincare, following social media influencers, or attending annual industry conventions may contribute to a broader understanding of trends and best practices in esthetics, they do not focus specifically on legal and regulatory changes. These alternative options can supplement knowledge but lack the authoritative and direct insight provided by TDLR communications, making them less effective for maintaining compliance with laws and regulations governing esthetics practice.
