Honorable Ronald D. Kouchi

Sir:

 

     Your Committee on Commerce and Consumer Protection, to which was referred Governor's Message No. 615, submitting for study and consideration the nomination of: 

 

State Board of Barbering and Cosmetology

 

G.M. No. 615

RAYNETTE HALL,

for a term to expire 06-30-2024,

 

begs leave to report as follows:

 

     Your Committee reviewed the personal history, resume, and statement submitted by Raynette Hall for service on the State Board of Barbering and Cosmetology.

 

     Your Committee received testimony in support of the nomination for the appointment of Raynette Hall from the Department of Commerce and Consumer Affairs, Chamber of Commerce Hawaii, and one individual.

 

     Upon review of the testimony, your Committee finds that Ms. Hall's background and dedication to serving the public qualify her to be appointed to the State Board of Barbering and Cosmetology as a licensed beauty operator.  Your Committee notes that Ms. Hall has held a nail technician license since 2001, a beauty operator license since 2002, and is the owner and operator of Hapa Heaven Salon & Spa in Hawaii Kai.  Previously, Ms. Hall was employed as an OPI Educator where she taught distributor workshops and seminars, presented in‑salon classes, and represented the OPI nail polish manufacturer at educational events.  Your Committee finds that Ms. Hall is part of the Small Business Advisory Committee with the Chamber of Commerce Hawaii, has a thorough understanding of the role and responsibilities of board members, and her extensive experience in the beauty industry will enhance the effectiveness of the State Board of Barbering and Cosmetology.  Your Committee therefore recommends that Ms. Hall be appointed to the State Board of Barbering and Cosmetology based on her knowledge and commitment to public service.

 

     As affirmed by the record of votes of the members of your Committee on Commerce and Consumer Protection that is attached to this report, your Committee, after full consideration of the background, experience, and qualifications of the nominee, has found the nominee to be qualified for the position to which nominated and recommends that the Senate advise and consent to the nomination.

 

Respectfully submitted on behalf of the members of the Committee on Commerce and Consumer Protection,
