Bill > HB273

This bill makes several changes to Kentucky's barbering laws, primarily by updating the structure and requirements for the Kentucky Board of Barbering and barber schools. Key provisions include adding the executive director of the board as a non-voting member, removing the requirement for applicants to demonstrate "good moral character and temperate habit," and reducing the required out-of-state barber experience for licensure from three years to one year. Additionally, the bill changes the title of "administrator" to "executive director" within the board's structure, and for barber schools, it lowers the required hours of instruction from 1,500 to 1,200 and increases the maximum daily instruction hours from 8 to 10.
