When can I start?

Our barbering program operates on a revolving 7-month “wheel.” You can start any Monday when class is in session. Do note that we are closed on all public holidays.

If you start in the middle of the current wheel (month 3), you would complete until month 7 and then finish when the class rotates past month  2 in the next revolution.

What language is the class taught in

Our instructors for this class are bilingual.  They will teach in either English or/and Spanish depending on which students are present for class.

Do you offer financial aid?

While we do not offer financial aid, we offer high caliber staff and facilities at a modest price.  At $5,990 for the barbering program, you will be hard pressed to find a school in Orlando of such quality at such reasonable prices. 

What is the ultimate cost versus a school that offers financial aid

The typical cost of a Barbering program for a school that offers financial aid is $12,000.  If you qualify, the government will give you a maximum of $6,495 in Pell grants which you do not need to pay back.  This leaves you with  $6,505 which you need to borrow from the federal government in the form of student loans).

At Hollywood Beauty Academy, the Cosmetology program costs $5,990.  The total cost of our program is cheaper than schools that offer financial aid because the Pell grant covers only a fraction of the total cost.

You can enroll in the program with a $600 deposit.  Then it is $770 per month until you graduate.  

What books are required for the class?

We use Milady’s 6th edition textbook.  Please bring the either the English or Spanish books to your first day of class:

ENGLISH
MILADY STANDARD BARBERING TEXTBOOK, 6th EDITION. ISBN: 978-1-305-10055-8

SPANISH
MILADY STANDARD BARBERING SPANISH TEXTBOOK, 6th EDITION. ISBN: 978-1-305-10076-3

Do I need to take a final exam

At the end of the program, you will be invited to sit for the Florida barbering exam.  In the State of Florida, all barbers must pass this exam before receiving their license.

In the advent that you do not pass on the first try, our instructors are available for further review in preparation for a second exam.

I have more questions

You are welcome to visit the school.  Please call our admissions staff at (888) 828 8212 so they can arrange a tour and block off 5-minutes with your future instructor.
