How it works
Utah Barber Permit Training at Lavish Academy
Train through supervised in-house haircuts and lessons at Lavish by Minor Details in Orem. Review the program details below, then contact Jaymes or Selena to discuss enrollment and an available start date.
Training and timing
The program includes 130 supervised training hours, typically about 3½–4 weeks of active training. Your schedule, state approval and exam timing affect the overall timeline. Start dates require team confirmation. Countable training begins only after state apprenticeship registration approval. Lavish currently limits enrollment to two active permit students total.
Tuition and payment
Total tuition is $2,500. A $1,500 nonrefundable enrollment deposit reserves your place and applies toward tuition. The remaining $1,000 is due before Lavish submits your state apprenticeship registration application.
If you withdraw before completing the program, including after training begins, Lavish refunds the remaining $1,000 tuition payment if it has been paid. The $1,500 enrollment deposit is retained. No tuition refund is offered after program completion.
State application and licensing exam fees and your personal cutting tools are separate from tuition. Klarna or Afterpay may be selected when offered at Perceny checkout, subject to provider approval and terms. Lavish does not offer an in-house payment plan.
What Lavish provides
Tuition covers instruction, supervised in-house haircuts and lessons, and hands-on practical test preparation. Lavish provides Booked Out access for study materials and app practice tests at no additional cost.
Lavish also supplies your training station and chair, capes, neck strips, cleaning materials and a straight razor starter pack.
What to bring
Bring cutting shears, clippers, trimmers and a shaver. Thinning shears are optional. Bring your tools ready for use and follow your instructor’s cleaning and disinfection guidance.
How the process works
1. Discuss the program, availability and start date with Jaymes or Selena.
2. Pay the $1,500 deposit and receive your student packet. Review it, complete your information and sign the acknowledgment after review with Lavish. Return it for onboarding and filing.
3. Pay the remaining $1,000 before Lavish submits your state registration application.
4. Wait for state approval, then confirm your training schedule, Booked Out login and instructor contact.
5. Complete eligible supervised training. Lavish’s first 15 training hours involve no cutting; your instructor approves readiness before client haircuts.
6. Complete training requirements and state exam and application steps. Independent work begins only after your required credential is issued and verified.
Practice and student participation
Lavish helps attract models and provides booking support, instruction, supervision and feedback. We do not guarantee a full practice schedule. Relying only on clients provided by Lavish may limit your practice opportunities.
Actively inviting models, sharing your apprentice booking link, studying in Booked Out between sessions and arriving prepared are recommended habits for success, not a recruitment quota. Tell your instructor early if you need more models or help with a skill so you can make a plan together.
Complete daily hours and services sheets and present them for instructor review and sign-off before leaving. Record actual eligible supervised training; independent app study is not automatically counted toward training hours.
Practice tests and state testing
Booked Out provides app study materials and practice tests, available anytime. Lavish offers hands-on practical practice tests on Tuesdays only.
Students schedule their own state licensing exam and pay their application and exam fees. We recommend making the booking approximately one week before anticipated training completion, for an eligible exam date after completion.
A projected completion date is an estimate. Training completion does not guarantee exam success, permit issuance or employment at Lavish.
Intro prerequisite and additional classes
Intro to Barbering is the required first step toward the Barber Permit program. The class helps you build foundational skills and allows your instructor to assess your readiness for supervised training. If more practice is needed, your instructor will outline what to work on before the next check-in. Enrollment follows instructor approval, with start dates arranged through Jaymes or Selena based on available openings. Intermediate classes are separate offerings; ask Jaymes or Selena which additional training fits your goals.
Questions and next steps
Contact Jaymes or Selena at 801 515 0151. Either person can help. Your detailed student packet covers onboarding expectations, supplies, payment and refund terms, records and testing. State forms and payment receipts are provided separately.
