Passion is energy. Feel the power of focusing on what excites you. – Oprah Winfrey
Nothing will make you happier than pursuing your passion. At Z Hair Academy, we take pride in preparing our students for a thriving career in cosmetology. While enrolled, we want our students to get the most out of their education. To help them, we offer our memorial scholarship as well as a range of financial aid services to help our students obtain other cosmetology scholarships.
There are many scholarships available to cosmetology students. Check out the scholarships below to find out more!
Cosmetology scholarships are available from several resources. If you receive a scholarship, please report the award to a Z Hair Academy financial aid representative so your scholarship can be processed.
The Clinton E. McKenzie Memorial Scholarship
Established by Z Hair Academy in 2013, the Clinton E. McKenzie Memorial Scholarship honors the patriarch of the McKenzie family. A hairdresser for more than 60 years, Clinton’s love for cosmetology remained steadfast – even through quadruple bypass surgery and the loss of his leg. He often said hairdressing got him through post-surgery recovery because it gave him something to look forward to. It’s fitting that such an inspiring man should have a cosmetology scholarship in his name as a way to help a young stylist begin their own long-lasting career.
Each student enrolled in Z Hair Academy has the opportunity to earn up to $1000 toward their tuition. However, a student must meet specific requirements to be eligible:
