Did you know? Due to regulations in Saskatchewan, before you can specialize in barbering, you need to become a licensed hairstylist and get experience working in all aspects of the trade and hair services. In our province, barbering isn’t a standalone trade (yet!), so mastering general hairstyling skills is essential before focusing on barbering.
