“It’s a tremendous victory for individual rights and for the politically powerless. And progressives are terrified of it. The Texas Department of Licensing and Regulation issued $2,000 penalties to threaders across the state and ordered them to quit their jobs until they completed 750 hours of coursework (not a second of which is devoted to eyebrow threading) in private beauty schools, costing between $7,000 and $22,000, and pass two examinations (neither of which tests eyebrow threading). Would-be threaders have to pay for the training and lose the opportunity to make money threading eyebrows. The court concluded that the regulations imposed an unconstitutionally oppressive burden.”
