That was terrible and I should’ve done a little more research before posing the question but as another user posted it seems to be focused on out of staters looking to move to NH but hitting that licensing barrier. There were a lot of good points made on this thread so still glad I asked.

Just a side note, we’ve been told/being prepared for our state board exams and our instructors have emphasized that they don’t even look for how well you perform a service, what they are really looking for is proper hygiene, cleaning, disinfecting and sanitation practices. We can wrap a perm like complete garbage but putting my comb down once picked up is a huge no-no.
