About This School

Salon Success Academy-Riverside is a private for-profit institution located in Riverside, California with approximately 164 undergraduate students enrolled. The average net price after financial aid is $15,423 per year. Typical graduates earn $24,400 within 10 years of enrollment.

The numbers tell a mixed story here: graduates earn a median of $24,400 a year a decade out, which is a modest return and leaves little financial cushion even with a relatively low median debt of $11,884. As a small, for-profit cosmetology school with 173 students, it can offer a focused, hands-on training environment, but you're essentially betting on building a loyal local clientele or advancing into salon management to make the economics work. Worth considering if you're committed to the beauty industry and have a clear plan — but go in with realistic income expectations.
