The board shall determine the period of time during which each extension is effective and shall inform the applicant. The board shall also inform the applicant of the continuing education requirements that must be met to have the license renewed. If an extension is granted for less than one year, the continuing education requirement for that year, in addition to the required continuing education for the succeeding year, must be completed in the succeeding year. In all other cases the board may waive all or part of the continuing education requirement on a case-by-case basis. Any required continuing education shall be completed and satisfactory proof of its completion submitted to the board by a date specified by the board. Every license which has not been renewed in any odd-numbered year by the thirtieth last day of January and for which the continuing education requirement has not been waived or extended shall be considered expired.
(D) If the board adopts a continuing education requirement under section 4713.111 of the Revised Code, it may develop a procedure by which a licensee who is not currently engaged in the practice of cosmetology, but desires to be so engaged in the future, may apply to the board to have his license classified as inactive.
Licensees desiring to have their licenses classified as inactive shall apply to the board on forms provided by the board and shall pay the fee established under this division. A license classified as inactive license shall remain inactive at least until the thirtieth day of January of the next odd-numbered year.
If the board develops a procedure for classifying licenses as inactive, the board shall adopt a rule establishing a fee for having licenses classified as inactive. The fee shall reflect the costs to the board of providing the inactive license service. The board shall also adopt rules establishing a continuing education requirement to be completed to have an inactive license restored. The continuing education requirement shall be sufficient to ensure the minimum competency required by a licensee necessary to protect the public. The board shall not restore an inactive license until the licensee submits proof satisfactory to the board that the continuing education requirement has been completed.
(E) Any licensed cosmetologist, managing cosmetologist, esthetician, managing esthetician, cosmetology instructor, manicurist instructor, esthetics instructor, manicurist, or managing manicurist who is not currently engaged in the practice of cosmetology and who does not hold an inactive license may have his license restored only upon payment of all lapsed renewal fees and submitting proof satisfactory to the board that any applicable continuing education requirements have been completed; provided that no cosmetologist, managing cosmetologist, esthetician, managing esthetician, cosmetology instructor, manicurist instructor, esthetics instructor, manicurist, or managing manicurist who has not been engaged in the practice of cosmetology for more than two years and who does not hold an inactive license may have his license restored without passing an examination as provided in section 4713.06 of the Revised Code.
(F) Upon payment of the renewal fee provided in division (D) of section 4713.10 of the Revised Code and submitting proof satisfactory to the board that any applicable continuing education requirements have been completed, a person currently licensed as:
(1) A cosmetology instructor who has previously been licensed as a cosmetologist or a managing cosmetologist, is entitled to the reissuance of a cosmetologist or managing cosmetologist license;
(2) A manicurist instructor who has previously been licensed as a manicurist or a managing manicurist, is entitled to the reissuance of a manicurist or managing manicurist license;

Sec. 4713.61. (A) If the state board of cosmetology adopts a continuing education requirement under section 4713.09 of the Revised Code, it may develop a procedure by which a person who holds a license to practice a branch of cosmetology, managing license, or instructor license and who is not currently engaged in the practice of the branch of cosmetology, managing a salon, or teaching the theory and practice of the branch of cosmetology, but who desires to be so engaged in the future, may apply to the board to have the person's license classified inactive. If the board develops such a procedure, a person seeking to have the person's license classified inactive shall apply to the board on a form provided by the board and pay the fee established by rules adopted under section 4713.08 of the Revised Code.
(B) The board shall not restore an inactive license until the later of the following:
(1) The date that the person holding the license submits proof satisfactory to the board that the person has completed the continuing education that a rule adopted under section 4713.08 of the Revised Code requires;
(2) The last day of January of the next odd-numbered year following the year the license is classified inactive.

(5) The person operating the program provides the board a tentative schedule of when the program will be available so that the board can make the schedule readily available to all licensees throughout the state.
Sec. 4713.63. A practicing license, managing license, or instructor license that has not been renewed for any reason other than because it has been revoked, suspended, or classified inactive, or because the license holder has been given a waiver or extension under section 4713.60 of the Revised Code, is expired. An expired license may be restored if the person who held the license meets all of the following applicable conditions:
