IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION...PLEASE READ!!!
ATTENTION.....PLEASE READ
To all shop owners, managers and employees…..It is important that we all remember that as we serve the public that includes all persons from children to senior citizens we must insist on ……SAFETY FIRST.
It is important to run a business and our profession with constant safety giving to each and every one we cater to.
Our tools are used on the head face and neck and we always run the risk of unintentionally harming someone. It is very easy to burn someone with a hot air dryer or injure someone with a high pressure air hose or even cut someone with shears or especially a razor.
None of us….need to be placed in a situation of harming anyone which could not only lead to an injury for them, but also very heavy legal fines imposed on you.
LET’S ALL WORK SMARTER…NOT HARDER. Remember….SAFETY FIRST…ALWAYS!
Four Things We Look For When Inspecting a Barber Shop
1) Neck Dusters
We have been getting many complaints from the public and calls at the office about dirty neck dusters. Also it is one of the most violated rules that we find during our inspections. The Board recently felt it was time to make shop owners and barbers be more responsible about their use of neck dusters. The fine for a dirty neck duster was raised from $50 to $100. The shop owner will also be fined $100 for each barber that is in violation. So shop owners do your job – keep an eye on your barbers and shop!!!!
2) Wet Sanitizers or Barbicide Jars
These jars should be kept clean at all times. We find hair, gel, flies, cockroaches, bees and much more in these jars. We get the same excuses all the time – we just changed it yesterday. If it’s dirty, CHANGE IT. We know if there is a little hair, that’s natural and is part of our business. But when it is so full we can’t even see the combs – its bad !!!! When you are cutting hair and return the comb to the jar, rinse it before you put it back in the jar. You should change it at least once a week or as needed. If it gets dirty in two days, then change it. Keep it clean!
3) Tool Drawers
Tool drawers are for tools! Only things you use to cut hair should be in there. No screwdrivers, keys, cards, gum, phones, etc – only barber tools. You can have all the junk drawers you want. But your barber tool drawer must contain only barber tools. Oh, and by the way, each station must have a tool drawer.
4) Spray Disinfectant
If you don’t use dry tabs in the tool drawer, you must have a can of disinfectant spray. Make sure the can has a disinfectant in it. Some cans say they are a lubricant but doesn’t contain a disinfectant, you must read the label. Spray your clipper blades before each customer. Let them see that you are using the spray.

BARBER INSTRUCTOR APPLICANTS.....PLEASE READ
The last year here at the Barber Board has been an eye opener, not only for us but all of you out there with the new online system of licensing and our new environment here at 1740 W Adams. We have only so much time to deal with many of these changes and still handle our normal responsibilities of testing, grading, inspecting, handling rules and law changes and answering calls from many who are understandably confused and need help with information. We also understand that change is a regular part of life and so with that change we wanted all you INSTRUCTOR hopefuls to get on board with a barber board reality check.
Concerning the “Barber Instructor Exam”………
We have made some changes to raise the bar and standard of the instructional part of this exam. For example, the written exams are now arranged in blocks of subject matter so the applicant can stay focused on one area of subject matter at a time, and of course it’s easier if you studied and know the subject matter.
For all applicants, the instructor exam process needs to be an educational focused demonstration of barbering techniques and terms. During these demos we need to see the relationship of demonstrating all the steps with barbering technical terms for the students because along their education journey they will be taking quizzes and examinations and those exact steps and terms will need to be ingrained in their development.
The true emphasis on this exam is to stay focused on the what, how, and why of all the steps because this really needs to be the center of attention, especially during an instructor assessment exam.
As a Barber you have developed your own style of the way you do your work in a shop but….An instructor must be able to go back to the basics in teaching barbering. You must break it down to a point of basic explained steps for this exam that even a six-year old could understand. It’s not easy, but it is the way it must be because at the end of their training they all will take an exam base on these steps learned, and hopefully have been taught.
It is the right way…. The only way…What we look for…… And what we must see at this exam if you expect to pass
You may qualify for a fee waiver for first time license applicants if your Tax Records of income meet the necessary standard of State Waiver Requirments... Call the Board at 602 542-4498
