certificates
A. No person shall practice or attempt to practice barbering without a certificate of
registration as a registered barber issued by the board.
B. Students in certified barber colleges may perform acts included in the practice of
barbering but only as clinical training and only on persons who have consented thereto after
they have been specifically advised in advance that the operator is not a registered barber but
only a student in training.
C. The board is authorized to adopt rules to allow a barber college to charge or
accept directly or indirectly any money whatsoever for such clinical practice by the student
or for materials used therein whether the money is considered payment for services or
materials or as a gratuity.
D. A person participating in the Barber Apprenticeship Program registered with the
Apprenticeship Council of Louisiana Works may perform acts included in the practice of
barbering if he holds an apprenticeship certificate issued by the board. The board shall issue
such an apprenticeship certificate to an applicant upon submission of an application
accompanied by proof of his participation in such program and payment of the appropriate
apprenticeship certificate fee.
