(b) The application includes a drawing or diagram indicating the premises to be licensed and the location of required equipment and facilities.

(2) A cosmetology establishment shall be completely separated by full partitions and doors from a dwelling or a school of cosmetology.
(3) The department may issue a limited cosmetology establishment license to a person who seeks to perform only 1 or more services of cosmetology on the premises. If the establishment license is limited to only manicuring services or skin care services, the supervising licensee may be an individual licensed only in that service. A licensed cosmetologist working in a limited licensed cosmetology establishment shall not perform cosmetology services for which the premises are not licensed. If the cosmetology establishment license is limited to electrology, the supervising licensee shall be a licensed electrologist. A licensed cosmetologist shall not supervise a cosmetology establishment whose cosmetology license is limited to rendering electrology unless the cosmetologist is licensed as an electrologist.
(4) The department may grant a temporary establishment license to a person who has fulfilled all licensure requirements except for the completion of the inspection.
(5) The transfer of ownership or location of a cosmetology establishment voids the license. The filing of a new license application is a predicate to the change in ownership or location of an establishment.
(6) The license of the establishment and of each individual working in the establishment shall be displayed in a prominent place which is visible to the public at all times. The license of an individual working in the establishment may be posted at the individual's work station.
