About this program
Barbering is an in person barbering program offered by Magic Fingers Institute at Magic Fingers Institute in Jamaica, NY. The reviewed source publishes 600 required hours.
Current first-party program, catalog, contact, and FAQ sources support 600 hours, $8,500 tuition, a $100 registration fee, a $900 kit-and-uniform charge, route-specific schedule facts, hybrid and in-person training, monthly payment plans, prerequisites, actions, and supervised practical work. Total cost remains null because the current page publishes $9,620 while its listed components sum to $9,570 and the linked catalog publishes $9,595; the sources also conflict between $70 and $95 provider exam charges. The normalized $55 licensing amount uses the current New York application fee plus practical-exam fee. No future exact cohort is published. The four retained attendance- and delivery-level records overlap and require provider-backed identity reconciliation.
