Big Island Beauty Academy – Premier Beauty School & Salon in Kailua-Kona

This is your chance to own and operate a truly one-of-a-kind business on the Big Island of Hawaiʻi. Big Island Beauty Academy is the island’s only licensed beauty school, offering a full spectrum of state-approved programs designed to launch successful careers in the beauty and wellness industry. Located in the heart of Kailua-Kona, this thriving academy is more than just a school—it’s a hub for creativity, confidence-building, and hands-on training.

Comprehensive Beauty Programs
Big Island Beauty Academy provides a wide array of educational programs tailored to meet the growing demand for licensed beauty professionals. Students can enroll in courses for Cosmetology, Hairdressing, Nail Technology, Esthetics, and even Instructor Training. Each program is structured to provide the technical skills and professional development required for licensure in Hawaiʻi. Students benefit from expert instruction, real-world experience, and a clear path to employment in salons, spas, and wellness centers throughout the islands and beyond.

Hands-On Student Salon
A key component of the academy's success is its student-operated salon, which gives learners the opportunity to gain real-life experience in a supportive environment. Under the supervision of licensed instructors, students perform a wide variety of salon services including haircuts, hair coloring, chemical treatments, manicures, pedicures, waxing, facials, and makeup application. These services are offered to the public at reduced rates, making beauty care more accessible to the community while helping students build confidence and customer service skills.

Strong Community Connection
Big Island Beauty Academy is deeply rooted in the local community. By offering affordable salon services and welcoming clients from all walks of life, the school fosters a strong sense of ʻohana (family) and support. Many clients return time and again, not only for the excellent service, but to support the students and the mission of the academy. The business is well-reviewed for its cleanliness, professionalism, and warm, welcoming atmosphere.

Profitable and Poised for Growth
This business is not only operational and thriving—it’s profitable and perfectly positioned for its next chapter of growth including accreditation. Once accredited, the school will unlock an entirely new revenue stream by accepting financial aid through Pell Grants. With its established reputation, infrastructure, and community ties, this school is built for long-term success—and offers a rare opportunity for the right buyer to step into a business with a proven foundation and massive future potential.

Turnkey Business with Expansion Opportunity
Fully licensed and operational, the academy is a turnkey opportunity for a new owner—whether you’re an investor, educator, or beauty professional looking to make an impact in the industry. All equipment, furniture, and instructional materials are included in the sale. The location is highly visible and centrally located, with consistent foot traffic and easy access. There is ample room to expand programming, increase enrollment, or enhance salon offerings. As the only school of its kind on the island, the academy holds a unique position in a market with high demand for beauty professionals.
