Indiana State Barber Practice Exam

Which of the following is not a typical service offered by barbers?

1. Haircuts

2. Shaving

3. Coloring hair

4. Facial treatments

The correct answer is: Facial treatments

Barbers traditionally focus on services that cater mainly to hair cutting and grooming for men, which typically includes haircuts, shaving, and sometimes coloring hair. While some barbers may offer hair coloring as part of their services, it is considered less common and not a standard offering in traditional barbering. Facial treatments, on the other hand, are more closely associated with the practice of esthetics and are typically offered in salons or spas rather than barbershops. This makes facial treatments the least typical service that would be expected in a traditional barber setting. Typically, barbers are more concentrated on services like cutting and shaving rather than comprehensive skin care treatments.
