Manicurists must complete a 300-hour Board-approved course at a Board-approved school and pass a Board-administered exam in order to be licensed in New Hampshire.

And to clarify, this event on May 9 is not about unlicensed manicuring per se, it's a publicity stunt to draw attention to the anti-competitive, anti-freedom characteristics of all government-run business and professional licensing by calling out one of the most absurd examples. And the State is obliging very nicely by absurdly threatening arrest of an unlicensed fingernail-painter.

Another possibility that was considered was unlicensed shampooing of someone's hair for profit, another violation of the law, but the lack of warm water led to the manicure decision.

A list of New Hampshire business and professional licensing chapters.

OK, I get it: 300 hours is ridiculous.
