• About Our Hair & Beauty Academy

A new home for nationally accredited hair and beauty training

The Australian Hair and Beauty Academy is a new chapter in Queensland beauty education. Beginning September 2026, AHBA delivers nationally recognised qualifications in hairdressing, beauty therapy, nail technology and salon management — all from working salon environments.

Founded and led by Stacey Terese Ngaro, a Gold-Coast-based salon owner and educator, AHBA pairs industry-active trainers with small cohorts so every student gets the hands-on attention that turns training into a real career.
