10        Sec.  3-1.  Cosmetology  defined.    Any   one   or   any
11    combination   of  the  following  practices  constitutes  the
12    practice of cosmetology when done for cosmetic or beautifying
13    purposes and not for the treatment of disease or of  muscular
14    or  nervous disorder: arranging, braiding (except as provided
15    under Article IIIE), dressing,  cutting,  trimming,  curling,
16    waving, chemical restructuring, shaping, singeing, bleaching,

 2    legs,  and  knees  of  another  person  for  other  than  the
 3    treatment  of medical disorders; any practice of epilation or
 4    depilation of any person; any practice  for  the  purpose  of
 5    cleansing,  massaging  or  toning  the  skin  of  the  scalp;
 6    beautifying,  massaging,  cleansing,  exfoliating the stratum
 7    corneum of the epidermis, or  stimulating  the  skin  of  the
 8    human  body by the use of cosmetic preparations, antiseptics,

14    person by the use of depilatories, waxing or  tweezers.   The
15    term  "cosmetology" does not include the services provided by

23    puncture  or abrade the skin below the stratum corneum of the
24    epidermis or remove closed milia (whiteheads) which may  draw
25    blood  or  serous  body fluid.  The term cosmetology includes
26    rendering advice on what is cosmetically  appealing,  but  no
27    person licensed under this Act shall render advice on what is
28    appropriate  medical  treatment  for  diseases  of  the skin.
29    Purveyors of cosmetics may demonstrate such cosmetic products
30    in conjunction with any sales  promotion  and  shall  not  be
31    required  to  hold a license under this Act.  Nothing in this
32    Act shall be construed to prohibit the shampooing of hair  by
33    persons  employed  for that purpose and who perform that task
34    under the direct supervision of a licensed  cosmetologist  or
