Financial Expertise Built for Barber Schools

For over 20 years, Lightheart, Sanders & Associates has worked closely with barber schools and barber shop owners across the country. We provide accounting and auditing services designed specifically for the barber industry, not one-size-fits-all solutions meant for traditional businesses.

We know barber schools are different. You’re balancing education, licensing, compliance, creativity, and community, often all at once. That’s why our team stays up to date on industry regulations, financial requirements, and best practices as barber education continues to evolve.

Our job is to give you clear, timely guidance and practical financial strategies so you can focus on what matters most: training future barbers and running a strong, sustainable school. At the end of the day, our goal is simple, take the stress out of your finances and help you understand your numbers with confidence.

Why Barber Schools Choose Lightheart, Sanders & Associates

Deep Experience With Barber School Audits
We specialize in SFA and school audits and have been auditing barber schools since 2003. Our process is built around how barber schools actually operate, helping you stay compliant without unnecessary disruption.

Strategies Built Around Your School
No two barber schools are the same. We take the time to understand your structure, goals, and challenges so we can create a financial plan that truly fits your vision.

A Long-Term Partner, Not Just a Service Provider
Compliance matters, but it’s not the whole picture. We help you put systems and insights in place that support long-term financial health and steady growth.

Modern Tools Backed by Real Experience
We combine up-to-date technology with seasoned accounting expertise. That means efficient systems today and flexibility as your school grows and changes.

“I have been going to Lightheart, Sanders and Associates for the pass 7 years. Previously I was during my own taxes, what a mistake. Once I started letting Kevin prepare my taxes, I have saved tons of money. The staff has been wonderful and were always available to answer all my tax questions. Great job, guys…”

“I wish I had met the team at Lightheart Sanders long before I did. After meeting Andrew Bodin, I was convinced he could provide the level of service I needed from an accountant. After reviewing my previous year’s taxes, they realized I was missing out on thousands of dollars in tax savings. I now trust this team with all of my accounting needs.”

My onboarding with LSA was easy, they are very responsive, organized, and meet you where you are at. I am very hands on with my business and they worked out a personalized plan for what my needs are.
