Question: how long does it take to become a licensed barber?
Answer: An apprenticeship in barbering takes about 2 to 3 years to complete, and it is typically for people aged 16-18 years old. To enrol in an apprenticeship, you'll need to find a barbershop that is willing to take on an apprentice as well as find a college that trains you once per week in order to get an NVQ.
