How Missouri Cosmetologist license verification works

A Cosmetologist in Missouri is licensed by the MO Cosmetology / Barber Board. PrimaryCheck looks the license up live at the board's public verification system (board lookup) by license number, or by name when no number is supplied. The record the board publishes is captured as evidence, hashed, and rendered into a proof PDF.
