I Am Licensed.® movement was created by The Professional Beauty Association (PBA) in order to bring nationwide awareness to the issue of deregulation and the importance of maintaining the integrity of the licensed beauty industry. Since the start, PBA has shared interviews from individuals across the country who truly value their profession and careers. They've given a voice to the industry through the "I Am" campaign and have reached thousands of their industry peers, current and potential clients and help spread the word to the public- those who would be affected the most by the threat of deregulation. "I Am" Industry Advocate and licensed stylist from Massachusetts, Sharon Clohesy, has truly been working tirelessly to help make a difference in the beauty industry. Clohsey stated, "It has been a pleasure working with PBA. It's great to know, and truly appreciated to have them representing the industry. The information and support that I have received from PBA has made me proud to be a member, and proud to know as a professional in a big industry, we can still have a voice." WHY IS IT IMPORTANT TO BE LICENSED AS A PROFESSIONAL? It is important to become a licensed professional to maintain a level of standards. Obtaining a professional license is an accomplishment that is earned and represents a level of skills and training that has been completed. HOW WOULD THE INDUSTRY CHANGE IF DEREGULATION TOOK LICENSES AWAY? It would be unsafe and be a disservice to the public. There would be no credibility or accountability and the industry would not be respected as it should. It is important to maintain licensure, professionalism, and standards of practice.

The Professional Beauty Association (PBA) advances the professional beauty industry by providing our members with education, charitable outreach, government advocacy, events and more.
