# Kansas barber license requirements

Kansas requires a Board-approved barber school program in the current 1,200-to-1,500-hour range and written, practical and Kansas law examinations. The Board does not list a standard entry apprenticeship route.

Statewide license Reviewed October 2, 2026

## Credential requirements

### Kansas barber license.

1.  #### Education
    
    Complete the Board's current 1,200-hour minimum barber curriculum at a licensed school; Kansas law permits an approved school course between 1,200 and 1,500 hours, so a school may require more than the minimum. The current rule does not list a standard entry apprenticeship.
    
2.  #### Exam
    
    Pass the NIC written examination, practical examination and Kansas rules examination, generally with at least 80 percent on each part.
    
3.  #### Experience
    
    The ordinary entry path is school-based and has no separate post-school employment period. A 500-hour additional course is used for certain military or cosmetology crossover cases, not as a general apprenticeship.
    
4.  #### Application
    
    Apply to the Kansas Board with school completion verification, examination scores, identity documents and fees, following the Board's current examination application instructions.
    

**Good to know:** The statute sets the school-course range at 1,200 to 1,500 hours, while the Board curriculum is titled 1,200 hours. Ask the chosen licensed school whether its approved program is longer than the statutory minimum.
