Abstract	"Occupational licensing currently affects more than 1,000 occupations in the United States. I use confidential US Census Bureau business micro-data to shed light on the effect of occupational licensing in cosmetology on key market outcomes and study its effect on the providers of occupational training. Occupational licensing regulation does not seem to affect the equilibrium number of practitioners or prices of services to consumers, but is associated with significantly lower practitioner entry and exit rates. I further find states with more stringent licensing requirements to have more instructors and a larger median size of training facilities, suggesting possible barriers to entry for the training schools. Instructors, however, do not earn more in such states." (Author's abstract, Published by arrangement with John Wiley & Sons).
