As the average cost of college in the United States soars, more young people are being drawn to skilled trades. It’s part of a career rethink among members of Gen Z, who have been called the “toolbelt generation.”

Oh I wasn’t trying to throw shade by any means, in my state they are the same license. My point is when I was in college, there was a large cosmetology school across town that was like $1500 to complete your license. It was seen as a cheaper alternative to college, with a decent career path. Now that same program is nearly 10x as much, it’s still cheaper than college but not by much.
But complain about college tuition to most boomers and they will tell women hair school is only $100 and candy bars are a nickel.
States should have a “hair cut only” license for like $20 and a few hours of training. No coloring, no chemicals, scissors and hair only. Guess that would be ripe for abuse though.
