561561 2 braiding, cornrowing, extending, lacing, locking, sewing,
562562 3 twisting, weaving, or wrapping human hair, natural fibers,

564564 5 performed by hand or by using simple braiding devices
565565 6 including clips, combs, hairpins, scissors, needles, and
566566 7 thread. Hair braiding includes what is commonly known as
567567 8 "African-style hair braiding" or "natural hair care", but is
568568 9 not limited to any particular cultural, ethnic, racial, or
569569 10 religious form of hair style. Hair braiding includes the
570570 11 making of customized wigs from natural hair, natural fibers,
571571 12 synthetic fibers, and hair extensions. Hair braiding does not
572572 13 involve the use of penetrating chemical hair treatments,
573573 14 chemical hair coloring agents, chemical hair straightening
574574 15 agents, chemical hair joining agents, permanent wave styles,
575575 16 or chemical hair bleaching agents applied to growing human
576576 17 hair. Hair braiding does not include the cutting or growing of
577577 18 human hair, but may include the trimming of hair extensions or
578578 19 sewn weave-in extensions only as applicable to the braiding
579579 20 process.
