By which century did barbering begin to emerge as an independent profession?

  1. 17th

  2. 18th

  3. 19th

  4. 20th

The correct answer is: 19th

Barbering has a long history, but it wasn't until the 19th century that it began to emerge as an independent profession. In the 17th and 18th centuries, barbers were often associated with other professions such as dentistry or surgery. It wasn't until the 19th century that barbering became a distinct profession with its own schools and organizations. The 20th century saw further advancements in the profession, but it was in the 19th century when barbering truly started to establish itself as an independent career.
