REDKEN IS A LEADING PROFESSIONAL BRAND.
Backed by state-of-the-art science and a legacy of innovation that dates back to 1960. Started by a Hollywood actress and her hairdresser, we were the first company to take a scientific approach to hair and discover the formula that remains the alpha and omega of haircare to this very day: PROTEIN + MOISTURE + ACIDIC pH = HEALTHY HAIR.
Our groundbreaking research revolutionized the haircare industry, propelling Redken to the top of the U.S. professional market. Today, we are the #1 Pro Hair Brand in the U.S. Combining scientific rigor with an elevated aesthetic, we are known to create scientific hair prescriptions to deliver powerful hair transformations that preserve the health of the hair for performance-obsessed professionals and their clients all around the world.

FOUNDED BY A WOMAN
Our Founder – Paula Kent
Bleaching. Teasing. Heat styling. Hollywood in the late 1950’s was a scary place for an actress with baby fine hair – and our founder Paula Kent was no different.
After consulting countless experts, Paula had the a-ha moment that would change the hair industry forever: There were no answers to her questions because there was no science or study of haircare. Inspired by the desire to help those in search of gentle, high performance products and knowledgeable hair professionals, Paula joined forces with her hairdresser, Jheri Redding, to study the chemistry of healthy hair. A year later, Redken launched with three products and an intensive education program for hairdressers.
The rest is history.
