New Jersey A4299 creates a general barbering license and apprenticeship, and sets training limits.

New Jersey A4299 amends barbering regulations by introducing a general barbering license and apprenticeship. General barbers can perform services like shampooing, cutting hair, shaving facial hair, and massaging the face. The apprenticeship lasts two years and requires courses in sanitation and safety. After completing the apprenticeship, individuals can apply for a barbering or general barbering license. The bill also limits the hours of instruction for certain barbering training to 550 hours, including topics like shears-over-comb techniques, shop management, ethics, and state laws.
