Barber Program · 300 Hours
Class A Barber, 300 Hours
A focused crossover program for licensed cosmetologists who want to add barbering to their skill set and qualify for a Texas barber license without repeating fundamentals they already know.
Built for licensed cosmetologists
This program builds on cosmetology knowledge you already have while introducing the barbering-specific techniques Texas requires for a barber license: clipper fades, straight razor shaves, and precision beard work. Instead of relearning sanitation and consultation basics from zero, the 300 hours go straight into the skills that separate barbering from general cosmetology.
Flexible payment plans are available. Because the curriculum is compressed and focused, every hour is deliberate, the tradeoff for a shorter timeline is that techniques are drilled to automaticity rather than explored broadly.
What you'll be ready for
Upon completing the 300 required training hours, graduates are eligible to apply for and take the state barber licensing examination. Hands-on training with real clients under instructor supervision runs throughout, so by graduation you've already handled live consultations, fades, and razor work, not just demonstrations.
Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need an existing cosmetology license to enroll?
This program is designed as a crossover for licensed cosmetologists who want to add barbering credentials. It assumes foundational sanitation and consultation skills are already in place.
Will I get real client experience in only 300 hours?
Yes. Hands-on training with real clients under instructor supervision is built into the program from early on, not saved for the final weeks.
