Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: C. In a conspicuous place within the shop, clearly visible to the public.

TDLR rules require all licenses, including the barber shop license, to be displayed in a conspicuous place within the establishment, where they are clearly visible to the public.

Why the other options are wrong

  • A. Keeping the license in an inaccessible office defeats the purpose of public visibility.
  • B. Displaying it only when the door is open is not considered 'conspicuous' or 'clearly visible to the public' at all times.
  • D. While individual barber licenses may be near workstations, the shop license needs a more prominent, public location.

The TDLR rules specifying where and how barber licenses (individual and shop) must be presented to ensure public transparency.

  • Must be conspicuous and visible to the public.
