Find what you love

The Salon Professional Academy in Nashville offers a Cosmetology program that can develop your professional talents and teach you about the salon business. We can help you follow your passion!

Our approach to education is student-centered. That means we strive to make you a knowledgeable, prepared leader in the salon industry. Rather than relying only on traditional cosmetology practices, we continually update our educational programs. Redken educators from across the country come to our facility regularly to educate our instructors. Our instructors then pass this new knowledge on to our students.

Our interest in you, the student, comes first. We want your education to be the best it can be.

Your career is waiting

We believe that the most important aspect of your training comes when your formal education is complete: your career. We aspire to help place our graduates in privately held salons and spas, where income is the highest.

In addition to helping our graduates find work in local salons, we place some graduates in the 6,000 Redken Club 5th Avenue salons across the country. Some graduates from Nashville have received offers from California, Florida or New York, among other states.

We can serve as a contact between our students and salons looking to hire talented stylists. We might put you in touch with your dream employer!
