 In order to qualify for initial registration, any
person engaged in hair braiding solely for
compensation as a profession, except persons
licensed as cosmetologists, shall satisfactorily
complete instruction at either an accredited
school, professional association, or by an
individual approved by the board. Instruction
includes coursework covering the topics of
health, safety, sanitation, and state laws related

10. Business Response
The Board of Barber and Cosmetologist Examiners oversees the
administration, enforcement, regulation, and adoption of rules regulating the
barber and cosmetologist professions. The Board consists of seven
members appointed by the Governor, including three barbers, three
cosmetologists and one public member.
Cosmetologist training 1550 hours $5,000-$15,000
Hair Braider Registration 30 hours $300-$1,000
Do you believe that barbers and cosmetologists already in business want to
make it easy for new competitors in their industry? You don't suppose that
more restrictive licensing benefits those, like Schaefer, who run beauty
schools? Can you say "conflict of interest"?
