An Act amending the act of June 19, 1931 (P.L.589, No.202), referred to as the Barbers' License Law, further providing for licensure of manager-barbers and barber-teachers.
This bill amends the state's Barbers' License Law to update language regarding who can be licensed as a manager-barber or barber-teacher. The changes remove specific references to cosmetology and adjust the text to clarify that these roles apply to licensed barbers. By deleting certain lines and inserting new wording, the legislation streamlines the rules for professional licensing in barbering.
