The Redken Exchange

Beauty schools in Manhattan often cater to aspiring stylists, but few operate inside a major commercial hub. The Redken Exchange sits on the fourth floor of 20 Hudson Yards, placing it squarely within one of the city’s most recognizable modern developments. This isn’t a typical salon—it’s a training ground where techniques in haircutting, coloring, and styling are refined under professional guidance.

The school’s location means students work in an environment surrounded by high-end retail and office spaces, a contrast to the more secluded academies found elsewhere. While the focus remains on education, the Hudson Yards setting adds a layer of urban energy that’s hard to replicate in quieter neighborhoods. No frills, no gimmicks—just a straightforward space for learning the craft in a district that thrives on precision and presentation.

Questions about programs or scheduling can be directed to (800) 545-8157. For those mapping a route, the entrance is accessible via the main Hudson Yards atrium—directions here. It’s one of those places where the address alone tells you what to expect: efficiency, no distractions.
