New York sets no minimum hours for barber school: the Department of State says hours are set by approved schools, and NYSED lists no state-mandated barbering hours. The alternative is 2 years (24 months) as a registered barber apprentice; all applicants also need an infection-control course, and General Business Law 434 (dos.ny.gov barber law PDF) requires a written exam plus practical tests.
