43-04-49. Deceptive acts - Barber poles. A person may not advertise, hold out to the
public, or represent in any manner that the person is authorized to practice barbering unless the<br>person is authorized under this chapter to practice barbering or authorized to employ or lease<br>space to a barber. A person not authorized to practice barbering or not authorized to employ or<br>lease space to a barber may not place a barber pole in a location that would create or tend to<br>create the impression to members of the general public that a business located near the barber<br>pole is a barbershop unless the location of the barber pole is related to a business authorized to<br>operate a barbershop. As used in this section, barber pole means a red, white, or blue striped<br>vertical cylinder with a ball located on the top, bottom, or top and bottom of the cylinder, or any<br>object or facsimile of similar nature, regardless of the actual shape or coloring, if the object or<br>facsimile would tend to create an impression to members of the general public that a business<br>located near the object is a barbershop.
