Practicing barber-styling without first obtaining a barber-styling license or certificate of registration is:

  1. good business

  2. unlawful

  3. basic compliance

  4. contempt of court

The correct answer is: unlawful

Practicing barber-styling without first obtaining a barber-styling license or certificate of registration is considered unlawful because the state requires barbers to be properly trained and licensed in order to ensure public health and safety. Good business practices would involve obtaining the necessary licenses and registrations before engaging in the profession. Basic compliance refers to following all necessary rules and regulations, which in this case would include obtaining the proper license. Contempt of court is a legal term for willful disobedience to a court's authority, and does not apply to this situation. Therefore, the most appropriate answer is B unlawful.
