\n Hair care in New York was once a simple affair.<\/p>\n

If you wanted to work as a barber or hairstylist, all you needed was desire and some time as an app<\/a>rentice. For decades there were no state requirements. You didn\u2019t need a license or schooling. There were no exams or fees.<\/p>\n

That changed in 1946 when state lawmakers approved a requirement that prospective hair cutters get licensed. One needed a \u201ccourse of study in a school of barbering,\u201d they said, along with a note from a doctor declaring the applicant was free of \u201cinfectious or communicable disease\u201d and had \u201cgood moral character.\u201d<\/p>\n

Approval opened the door to just about any kind of service you\u2019d find in a barber shop, including trims and shaves, shampooing, facial and scalp massages, and color treatments \u2014 for men only.<\/p>\n

A section of that law involved cosmetology work on women.<\/p>\n

Since then, high-minded concerns about protecting public safety have been overtaken by a system that continues to add new and expensive hurdles, which bring in revenue for the state but make it harder to get a job.<\/p>\n

The latest barrier \u2014 that any \u201cshampoo assistant\u201d undergo 500 hours of instruction and obtain a state license \u2014 follows a trend of rising regulation that started in the 1990s.<\/p>\n

The 1946 statutes were repealed in 1992 and replaced with a new law that broke up the traditional barbering responsibilities into categories, with each skill eventually requiring its own separate license.<\/p>\n

In 1994, the state rolled out an esthetics license, which needed 600 hours of training, a natural hair styling license, which involved 300 hours of instruction and a nail specialty license, with 250 hours of classroom work.<\/p>\n

The most demanding requirement was the 1,200 hours of training for a cosmetology license (later lowered to 1,000 in 1999). That year, the state also rolled out new regulations for a waxing license, requiring 75 hours of study.<\/p>\n

All at enormous expense.<\/p>\n

The average tuition for the required course of study at cosmetology schools in New York comes in at $13,354 and takes about 10 months to complete, according to an industry review.<\/p>\n

\u201cSchools can set up rules that create a captive customer base,\u201d said Lisa Knepper of the Institute for Justice and critic of the new licensing requirement.<\/p>\n

\u201cThere\u2019s really only a handful of other states that have a shampoo assistant license, and the trend is toward getting rid of them.\u201d\n <\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
