Barbering for Cosmetologists II
BARBERING FOR COSMETOLOGISTS II
Finish in 4-6 months (depending on schedule and attendance)
The only thing better than one license … is two! This course is designed to teach master barber skills to those that have a Cosmetology license, or at minimum 800 hours in Cosmetology training. Upon completion, you will have the required knowledge and skill to successfully pass the N.Y.S. Barber Operator exam to become a licensed barber.
You’ll learn everything from cutting to shaving, and you’ll even get to hone your craft in our student barbershop, open to the public. It’s the perfect blend of theory and hands-on skill work, with traditional barbering techniques and new trends.
It’s given me the confidence necessary to be successful. At every turn there has been nothing but positive reinforcement and patience. Even post-graduation there’s been continued contact, interest, and concern with my progress. – Brandon L, BBINY Graduate
