About This School

Hays Academy of Hair Design is a private for-profit institution located in Hays, Kansas with approximately 74 undergraduate students enrolled. The average net price after financial aid is $14,744 per year. Typical graduates earn $18,700 within 10 years of enrollment.

The numbers tell a mixed story here: graduates earn a median of $18,700 ten years out, which is a modest income that will make even the relatively low median debt of $9,833 feel meaningful to repay. Worth considering if you're committed to cosmetology as a career and want a small, focused program in western Kansas — but go in clear-eyed that this field doesn't pay highly, and you should have a concrete plan for building clientele before you enroll.
