Hello, I am The director of recreation in a nursing home. Am I legally allowed to cut the hair of the residents using only clippers in Brooklyn, New York if I am not a licensed barber? I have searched the web all over and can't seem to find any answers. Does anyone have any information on this subject?

Hi Alexander

I do not live in new York and I’d don’t know what their guidelines are

This is what I would do

Contact the City Hall in Brooklyn and ask them

Look online to see if you can find out

Call other facilities and see what they do

Contact a local barber and see what he does

Maybe you can get him to volunteer
