At Louisville Beauty Academy (LBA), we believe that quality beauty education should be accessible to every driven individual ready to say “YES I CAN.” We’ve built our institution on the idea that tuition should not be a barrier — because when you uplift one student, you uplift an entire community.
Why Our Tuition Is Significantly More Accessible
Instead of the traditional high-tuition model, LBA sets its rates deliberately lower because our focus is on impact — not profit. Over nearly a decade, we have graduated nearly 2,000 licensed beauty professionals, each contributing to Kentucky’s economy and the broader beauty industry. These graduates collectively generate an estimated $25–50 million in annual economic contribution in our state — and that number continues to grow.
By lowering cost barriers, we help more students begin their professional journey sooner, and we reinforce our mission to expand opportunity.
Education Designed for a Career, Not Just a Certificate
We don’t believe in over-extending education so you pay for unnecessary hours. Instead, we focus on practical, tailored training that aligns with your unique strengths and career goals.
Whether your passion lies in hair cutting, coloring, braiding, nails, esthetics, or instructor training, LBA helps you master your craft efficiently and effectively. If you want versatility, our full 1,500-hour Cosmetology program delivers, but if your strength is specialization — we’ll guide you straight to profitability and purpose.
Community Impact and Service-First Learning
At LBA, education and service walk hand in hand. Our students provide the majority of salon services as volunteer hours, allowing them to gain real-world experience and the local community to benefit from quality care. Our second campus — housed inside the modern, $23 million Harbor House of Louisville facility — serves as a hub of service, license-earning, and community transformation.
Flexible Plans Built for Real People
Your financial investment should fuel your future — not hold you back. Most of our programs are priced well under $7,000 (including supplies, books, and kits), and we offer interest-free payment plans rising from just $100 per month. With scholarships, tuition-matching, and incentives, affordability isn’t a dream — it’s a plan.
Our graduates leave fully licensed, ready to earn and to make an impact for their families and for Kentucky.
