**The answer is Pennsylvania. It's one of the states where booth rental for barbers isn't permitted under state law at all.**

California, Florida, and Ohio all allow booth rental as a normal business arrangement — it's common practice in most states. Pennsylvania is the exception on this list, which is really the point of the question: booth rental isn't a universal right, and it's worth checking your own state's board rules rather than assuming the arrangement is allowed everywhere.
