What the barber exam usually covers
State barber exams generally include a written theory portion covering infection control and sanitation, haircutting and shaving, chemical services, skin and scalp conditions, implements and tools, and state laws and rules. Many states use NIC (National-Interstate Council) barber examinations delivered through providers such as PSI, paired with a hands-on practical exam. Passing scores are commonly around 70–75%, and required training hours vary widely by state — verify your program hours, exam format, fees, and application steps with your state barber board.
