About This School

The Academy of Hair Design Six is a private for-profit institution located in Hattiesburg, Mississippi with approximately 48 undergraduate students enrolled. The average net price after financial aid is $19,488 per year. Typical graduates earn $17,900 within 10 years of enrollment.

The numbers tell a mixed story here: graduates earn a median of $17,900 ten years out, which is modest but roughly in line with what entry-level cosmetology work typically pays in this region, and the relatively low median debt of $6,500 at graduation means you won't be buried in loans. The concern is the $19,488 annual net price — if you're borrowing to cover that, even modest debt can feel heavy on a $17,900 salary, so it's worth exploring every grant and scholarship option before signing anything. This is a reasonable choice if you're committed to a career in hair design and have financial support in place, but go in with clear eyes about the earning ceiling.
