Radiant Hair Color Kit, 8CC Dark Vivid Copper Blonde, 1 Pack | Vivid Dimensional Hair Color, Ammonia-Free, PPD-Free, Dermatologist-Tested, Permanent Hair Dye, Matera Marigold

This was by far the best home coloring experience I've ever had. From the first time I opened the box until conditioning and ending the process, it was great. My hair feels so much softer and looks fantastic. I have received many compliments on.it and when they find out I did it at home they are amazed. A little pricey but woth it. I have even ordered Madison Reed shampoo and conditioner and can't wait to use them.

I like the Madison Reed brand. I've been using their Medium Chocolate Brown for years. It's gentle on my hair and skin, and the dye color has been consistent throughout. Gray coverage is very good, but not perfect. Two weeks after coloring, a little silver begins to show through, though not enough to make me want to switch brands.

Madison Reed Hair Color never disappoints. There is not smell like other hair colors and the color is consistent . The color doesn't fade like other brands. It is worth the extra money.

I used Light Golden Red, &7NCG, Genova Red. On the package, the color looked like an exact match for my original hair color. (I have just enough grey, here & there throughout my hair, to want to cover it... for now, anyway. Vanity... right? lol ) I fell in love with Madison Reed's packaging and the thoughtfulness shown in this very complete hair color kit. The messaging in it dazzled me, as well. Using the product, I didn't care for the smell of it, but it wasn't nearly as bad as some ammonia-based hair color products. So far, so good. In addition, I was impressed by how much hair color was included. Even with long, thick hair, I was able to cover everything from the roots to the very longest tips of my hair, and do so completely. The included shampoo and conditioner were both lavish and generous. Again, as someone with very thick hair, this was appreciated. But then, fresh from the shower, I looked in the mirror. Umm... It looked like the color coverage wasn't consistent. Not even close. Worse, when my hair was dry, the color at the top of my head was spectacular, but starting at about ear level, the color was much darker. Indoors, it looks almost black. On someone as fair-skinned as me, the effect was jarring. Suddenly, every freckle and laugh line seemed more obvious. This was NOT flattering. Oddly, the ends of my hair barely took any color at all. That was fine, because naturally colored hair is usually lighter (sun bleached) at the ends. In the accompanying photo, my head is tilted, so I'm looking up. You're seeing the top of my head as well as my back. Also, that picture was taken on a slightly overcast day, so the variations in color aren't due to extreme lighting. It looks far worse indoors, but I think the photo conveys the essense of the problem. Note: It's been a few years since I was a hair model, but I picked up a lot of hair coloring tips from the pros. So, I'm still mindful of the importance of coloring my hair thoroughly and consistently, and following package directions - to the letter - for the best results. In other words, it's not as if I smothered the top of my head with hair dye, and just loosely spread the rest of my hair with far lighter coverage. Likewise, I didn't douse the middle (now darkest) band of my hair with extra color, or omit coloring the ends, either. To me, it looks like this hair color should not be used on long, previously colored hair. I'd ask for a refund if I had anything to return to the seller, but - of course - I used the complete package. So, at best, that was a waste of $30. I'm going to wait a week so my hair has time to recover, and then I'll be using an "oops!" products to remove the Madison Reed hair color. Fingers crossed, it'll restore how my hair looked before using Madison Reed's hair color. (If that doesn't work, Plan B is to streak my hair with blonde. At worst, it'll look "artsy.") I'll agree that the Madison Reed hair color at the top of my head looks exactly as I'd hoped. It's very close to the color shown on the product's packaging. The probem is: The rest of my hair looks awful. If your hair is short - and, preferably, has never been colored before - you may love Madison Reed. For me, this was an extremely distressing experience. Fortunately, I work at home. This week, only my family will see my hair. If I go out, I'll wear a hat. Then, my hair will look oddly dark with almost blonde sun-bleaching at the ends. Short-term, I'm okay with that. I was tempted to give this product two stars because the packaging was a delight to read, and the included gloves, cap, shampoo, and conditioner were wonderful extras. However, I'm so disappointed by the product itself, I have to give this one star, and share my experience with others, so they don't make a similar mistake.

Only home use product I use, includes gloves barrier cream, cleaning wipe and great shampoo and conditioner. Salon natural color

Love that ut came with the things you really need like protective cream, kept my forehead neck and ears stain free, got some I n my forearms and chest tehy also have a stain remover for that, best of all ammonia free no smell at all and my hair was so soft after. Definitely will be my only hair color from now on.

I bought this because I have been having itchy scalp for at least 4 days after having my hair colored at salons over the past year. I've been having my hair colored for over 40 years so this is something new. I read that the Madison Reed color contains no ammonia, PPD's etc. and is gentler on the scalp. So far I've used it twice and no itching!! The color is perfect and I couldn't be happier.

At first the color was perfect. I didn’t have time for Color Seal. So 2 days later, I used water, put in color seal for a few minutes, and afterwards the brown washed out and left with slight red residue! Very disappointing. I saved some shampoo and conditioning and it also lightened my hair. Ugh. Won’t use again. Too pricy.

Original product

Great

Didn't work effectively for me....3 days later my white roots came back, same like the other brands I have been using, just that they re far much less expensive....
