Barbering

What you'll get

For barbering: the Board of Barber and Electrolysis Examiners' step-by-step page for opening a shop says the shop needs a licensed barber as its manager (an apprentice cannot serve), a $120 inspection fee, a $50 permit fee and a board inspection, with a temporary authorization to operate sometimes offered while you wait. Its companion page for apprentice barbers describes 1,528 hours at an approved barber school, written and practical exams and a $50 license fee, so you can plan the path from school to your own shop; confirm current fees with the board.
