Many student Barbers think they will be asked only Barbering questions about CLIPPERS and RAZORS on their State Board Exam.
Sadly, they are wrong!
In fact, there are usually only 5 to 7 questions about Clippers and Razors on the Exam.
The remainder of the test will be on Decontamination, Hair Color, Chemical Relaxers, Permanent Waves, Hair-Pieces, and Shampooing.
And because most student Barbers are completely unprepared to answer any questions that are not about Clippers and Razors, it is easy to understand why 49 out of every 100 student Barbers FAIL their Exam.
Of course, that is GREAT NEWS for the 51 out of 100 that do pass the Exam because it really decreases the competition.
But it is BAD NEWS for the 49 that now have to go work as stock-boys in Walmart because they did not study the correct things and FAILED their Licensing Exam.
The following 5 questions have appeared on every Barber State Board Exam designed by NIC and PSI over the last 12 months.

i failed my barbet exam. Why are there so many cosmetology questions on gne barber exam in California?
Everybody in my class is coming back from the State Board and saying this is true. I been studying clippers and razers like a fool, guess I better start looking at the other chapters.
Had your questions 2 an 3 on my test. And about 5 questions on dandruff, didn’t know there was that much to know about dandruff. Greasy dandruff, wax dandruff, dry dandruff, is it contagious, is it caused by a fungus or a bacteria. Lots of questions about dandruff, these are the ones I remember.
Can it be killed with blue light?
