experience, good health, good moral character and other fundamental
qualities and qualifications in persons engaged in the practice of

demonstrated and in order to safeguard the health of the persons who
patronize the barber shops of our state and because of the evils
connected with itinerant barbers and barber shops and because of the
inadequacy of local regulation, it is the purpose of the legislature, in
enacting this article, to safeguard and protect the barbers of this
state from the evils of itinerant barbers and barber shops and to
safeguard and protect the lives, health and well being of those persons
