As a barber, you’ll cut, style, shape, and treat men’s hair—and sometimes women’s and children’s hair, too. You’ll give shaves and trim facial hair and sometimes perform neck and scalp massages. Like all specialists in the field of barbering, you’ll make a ritual out of maintaining your tools, station, and clients to the highest standards of hygiene and sanitation.
In barbering school, you’ll learn everything you need to know to pass the Delaware state exams required for licensure and to begin your career. You will learn about procedures for setting up and breaking down a workstation, prepping clients, cutting and styling hair, shaving, and maintaining a safe and sanitary facility. Curriculum typically includes theory and practical, hands-on training.
It usually takes one to two years to complete a barbering program. The length of your barbering program will depend on whether you are a full-time or part-time student.
