“What does a barber do? Barbers work mostly on male clients but may have a few females coming to them, as well. They not only cut hair, but they also groom beards, give facials, and fit hairpieces. Barbers enjoy a fairly recession-proof career, because no matter what the economy is doing, clients set aside money to spend on their grooming.”

“Every state has its particular set of licensing requirements for cosmetology. Most states set the minimum prerequisites at 16-18 years old with a high school diploma or GED, and the passing of the cosmetology state board after completion of cosmetology school. Again, each state is different in its expectations for cosmetology.” – Find all licensing requirements by state.
