Frequently Asked Questions
Is the TN Cosmetology vocabulary game free?
Yes. The game is free to play with no sign-up. Signing in adds AI explanations for any term.
How does the TN Cosmetology vocabulary game work?
Each round shows a clue for one of 20 TN Cosmetology terms. Guess the term in six tries: green means the right letter in the right spot, yellow means the letter is in the term but in another spot, and gray means it is not in the term. After the round, read the explanation and play the next term.
Where do the TN Cosmetology terms come from?
OpenExamPrep researched each term from the Tennessee Board of Cosmetology and Barber Examiners / PSI content outline and primary sources, listed under Sources on this page. The game is independent study material, not an official exam resource.
What is the current PSI Tennessee theory format?
The cosmetologist 1010 bulletin v 1.2 effective October 1, 2026 specifies 125 scored and 15 unscored questions,140 total, with 180 minutes. It supersedes the older 125-item/120-minute description. Theory precedes the separate practical examination.
Is this a proportionally weighted theory deck?
No. The current official table names ten areas but prints 24/16/2/2/8/10/3/3/6/6 percent, totaling 80%. We preserve that source discrepancy rather than invent the missing 20%. Cards 1–43 and 51–52 cover theory competencies; cards 44–50 are unweighted local-law revision. Confirm an updated complete outline with PSI.
