We all understand licensing for certain tasks or businesses. But is it really needed in this case??

300,hours gives someone lots of experience before working on customers , but is that much time really needed to learn the skills???

How long did it take each of us to learn, as children, how to wash our hair????

I am not sure if I’ve spent 300 hours washing my own hair in my entire lifetime!

300 hours would be 10 weeks of 30 hours per week. Part of the training I'd imagine would be supervised experience.

Yes, it's a real good idea. Consider problems people might have with disease and infestations or with fragile skin and hair that has to be delicately tended to. What about proper water temperature, chemicals and other additives for different scalp and hair conditions, maintaining a sanitary environment so as not to spread disease? What about hygienic procedures to protect the hair washer from catching diseases? What about some training in relating to custormers in a pleasant and professional way?

No, I'm not kidding.

Only a couple of minutes once we figured out that soap in the eyes burns. My grandkids started washing their own hair about age three because “I wasn’t doing it right”, even though I had washed my own for at least 45 years by that time.
