This Is Where Barbers Are Made.
Youngstown’s first modern barber academy. 1,800 hours of real, hands-on training for a real career. Come see the space and meet us in person.
The Greatest Of All Trained.
Barber School.
Rebuilt.
We’re not just another barber school. We’re a movement. Based in Youngstown, Ohio, GOAT Barber Academy was built by a 1st Place award-winning barber instructor who got tired of watching talented people graduate from programs that didn’t prepare them for the real world.
1,800 hours of hands-on training. Real clients. Real feedback. Business skills that actually matter. We don’t just prepare you for a state board exam. We prepare you for a career you’re proud of.
Why GOAT Is Different
REAL INSTRUCTION
Taught by Alex Sierra-Tirado, licensed Ohio Barber Instructor and 1st Place Cleveland Barber Expo winner with over 10 years in the industry.
HANDS-ON FROM DAY ONE
You’re on the clinic floor working with real clients early in the program. Not just watching. Not just reading. Actually cutting.
LOWEST TUITION IN THE AREA
At $15,000, GOAT offers the lowest tuition of any licensed barber program in the area, with flexible 0% payment plans.
BUILT FOR YOUNGSTOWN
This school was built for this community. We’re not a franchise. We’re not a chain. We’re your neighbors, and we’re invested in seeing this city win.
Step Inside GOAT
This is where you’ll train. Black marble, backlit mirrors, private rooms, and a real working clinic floor.
