- Introduced by Sen. John Gleason (D) on November 30, 2011, to revise the law that prohibits a person from earning a living as a barber unless he or she gets a state license, so that it would prohibit a person who does not have the license from displaying a barber pole. Under current law, barbering is illegal without a license, and a new barber can’t get a license unless he or she has completed a 2,000-hour course of study at a licensed barber college, and met other requirements imposed by a board comprised of existing barbers who have received political appointments to this board.
- Referred to the Senate Regulatory Reform Committee on November 30, 2011.

1) Re: 2011 Senate Bill 857 (Ban barber pole display by unlicensed hair cutters ) by isabelleelise on December 6, 2011What's the state's next move? License strippers and then ban stripper poles for the ones that aren't licensed?
Why in the world do barbers need to be licensed in the first place? And the government is wasting taxpayer $$ in deciding which barbers get a barber pole?!! Seriously?!! The government is much too big and too involved in the daily lives of private citizens.
