About This School
Trend Barber College is a private for-profit institution located in Houston, Texas with approximately 30 undergraduate students enrolled. The average net price after financial aid is $19,626 per year. The graduation rate is 47%, and the typical graduate earns $22,800 within 10 years of enrollment.
Students who are highly motivated to enter the barbering trade quickly and prefer a small, hands-on environment may find this Houston program appealing, but the numbers here deserve a hard, honest look before you commit. At an average net price of $19,626 per year, you'd be paying a significant amount for a credential in a field where median earnings sit at just $22,800 ten years after enrollment — meaning graduates are often earning less than the annual cost of attendance itself. The 47% graduation rate also signals that nearly half of students who start don't finish, which is a real risk worth taking seriously, especially since you'll owe money whether you complete the program or not. On the positive side, median debt at graduation is a relatively modest $12,794, which is manageable compared to many for-profit schools, and the small enrollment of 30 students means you're likely to get individualized attention from instructors. My honest recommendation: before enrolling, visit the school in person, ask to speak with recent graduates about their job placement experience, and compare this program against Houston Community College's barbering program, which may offer similar training at a lower overall cost.
