OH HB119

Expands the definition of "tanning facility" to include rooms or booths using chemical applications to tan skin, such as spray-on, mist-on, or sunless tans, in addition to existing ultraviolet lamp definitions.

Prohibits tanning facility operators and employees from allowing individuals under 18 years old to use fluorescent sun lamp tanning services unless the individual presents a prescription from a licensed physician for ultraviolet radiation treatments.

Removes the prior requirement in regulations that consumers under 18 must obtain written parental consent before receiving tanning services.

Amends the State Board of Cosmetology's rulemaking authority to establish standards for installing and operating tanning facilities to ensure consumer health and safety, including maximum exposure times, protective eyeglasses, warning signs, protective shielding, and dry floors.

Establishes the permit fee for tanning facilities at no more than $100 per location to cover inspection and enforcement costs.
