Leave it to the lying lefties to mischaracterize it as a matter of skin color

So, it's all white right if white women do this without a license ?

Cosmetology spreads a lot of disease. It's like having restaurants inspected for public health.

This is big government run amok. Kids have been getting their hair done by their parents, relatives, and the guy down the street since time immortal. Hair and nail chains like Cost Cutters don’t want the competition. Also black women doing hair is a part of Americana. Why isn’t the NAACP backing this? Oh, they’re more concerned about blacks not being in enough Hollywood movies.

Some states require 1000 hours of practice to get a license
to cut hair.

Flying time for license is a LOT LESS.

I can’t imagine why a person would need a license to braid hair to start with.

I think those things are nasty but that’s just my opinion. When I was a kid my hair was braided daily but at the end of the day the braids came out and my hair washed about every other day. I have seen the braids being talked about here stay in for what seemed like weeks.

In Texas, after 30 years as a real estate broker, and hundreds of closed “deals”, I could no longer keep my “license”. Why? Because of a little thing called “continuing education”. Every two years it’s another round of studying, classes and testing which is very time consuming and costly. Real Estate Training Schools and Courses have now become a large industry and fee generator for the state. It’s as simple as that. The word is “Corruption” in Austin.

I havent had a good barber hair cut since I was on Saipan!

8 chair barber shop and packed to the gills. Genuine Marine flat top, straight razor shave, hot towels, quicjneck and head massage to close. OUTSTANDING BARBER SHOP.

All the damn barber rules and you cant get a decent haircut anywhere in America!

I’d be curious to know what percentage of taxpayer funded government jobs in Tennessee are held by black women. I don’t think I’d be going out on a limb if I guessed that number is higher than the actual percentage of Tennessee citizens who are female and black.

The Guild doesn’t like back alley hairbraiders.

Some of this is just stupid. If someone is great at braiding hair, why shouldn’t they be able to? Same with personal trainers and nutritionists. Some of these “bodies” of licensing are total BS and don’t make you safer. Just look at some of these disgusting yet licensed nail salons.

Make the safety bodies focus on complaints because the licensing can be really shoddy. Shut down anyone negligent or harming.

Like it or not, styling and cosmetology are a licensed industry requiring 1600-2000 hours of instruction and a state test to be certified.

One of the things they teach in the course is sanitation and infection/infestation control, since hair and scalp is a great place for disease and critters to proliferate. Stylists find all kinds of things that would make you jump back on peoples’ heads. Our daughter is a licensed cosmetologist, so we get an inside account.

Plus, it is not okay for a stylist who spends thousands on training and certification (styling schools can cost up to $25,000) to be in competition with an unlicensed person who didn’t take the hard road to get there.

It is in the interest of the public for the state to require training and salon standards.

Government is only good at three things:

1) Killing people.

2) Taking money and property at gunpoint.

3) Selling monopolies to the highest bidder.

Hi, we’re from the government. We’re taking that Liberty and renting it back to you because f*** you!

We need a lot of Regulatory Decapture in this country.

Defund and de-empower all levels of government.

Three thousand hours of training to become a licensed beautician but only 500 hours to fly for an airline (airlines desperate for pilots that is).

Same with the funeral business. If it weren't for them you'd be able to shop for caskets at Costco.

I've always dreamed of opening a cremation business. I'd call it Kut-rate Krematorium. My goal was to be the Earl Scheib of the funeral business, but the entry barriers are just too steep.

Didn't this get decided at the Federal level 20 or 30 years ago?

Some guy braiding hair in DC, iirc.

No. I don't remember what the outcome was.

Many licensing laws are nothing other than incumbent business protection rackets, intended to prevent or limit competition.

Do you care most that your plumber has a “license” or that your plumber does good work to the best standards at what you think is a good price?
