But some people say "Higher-rar-key" depending on their accent.

All three are ok
It depends on the dialect and how important the "R" sound is in that dialect. That is called rhoticity (ロティシティ)
rhoticityというのは、Rの発音の有無のことです。Non-rhoticの英語がRを発音しない (generally only one R sound in each word)
I usually teach Japanese people to pronounce words with non-rhotic English because it's easier for them
So it would be hi-ra-key
Here is a video for that pronunciation

@Ossygoop isn't it too hart to put the stress w/o R right before "ar"?
Lemme ask u one more... So you'd say "camera" "Samurai" as "cam-er-uh" "sam-er-ahy" with no right after R as well?
