Mobile barber shops

 

House Bill 792 requires the board to begin licensing mobile barber shops, starting next year. The board is asking for public comments on draft rules for mobile barber shops.

 

Important!

 

Mobile barber shops are NOT currently legal. Please don't attempt to operate one until the board is able to issue licenses, starting next year. 

 

The draft rules discussed on this site will likely change based on public input. Please don't purchase or retrofit a mobile vehicle based on draft rules currently being considered.
