Medulla Salon

Art is all around on the eighth floor of Medùlla's Flat Iron District building, and not just when the salon is hosting fashion trunk shows in its loft space or doubling as an art gallery. That's because the salon's stylists—many of whom have been trained by Privé, Frederick Fekkei, and Cutler—are constantly creating hair masterpieces by cutting, coloring, and straightening strands with Oribe and Unite products. Highlights add depth to manes and emphasize bone structure, and thermal straightening and keratin treatments tame frizz.

Unlike the child billionaire who bought out the candy-apple industry, Medulla knows how to share. The salon offers private makeup and blow-drying classes to teach clients how to recreate their new looks at home. It also reserves space for Green Zen Organic Spa, where, amid antique Asian furnishings, aestheticians firm skin and clear complexions with antioxidant-rich Éminence products and LED and oxygen therapies.
