Some salons allow their assistants to wash, blowdry, flat iron, or set the hair.

If you charge for your services, by definition you are in the business of hair styling and you must have a license. This involves going to school and getting the license for your state. If you do not get your license, you are liable for damages if you accidentally hurt your client, in addition to criminal charges by the state. The reason is that chemicals and processes can go horribly wrong even in the hands of licensed professionals. Health and safety, anatomy and physiology, chemistry, and techniques of manipulation are just a few of the many subjects involved in the professional course. Getting a license can protect you and your clients.
