How I Get Salon-Quality Hair Color as a Busy Mom

I'm busy. You're busy. So let's cut to the chase.

  • I'm a mom with a full-time job and three kids under the age of 4.
  • I don't have time to go to the salon. (Plus I'm on a budget. Diapers aren't cheap.)

Here’s why Madison Reed has been a lifesaver:

My Hair Goals

I have an 8-month-old balayage going on that needs an overhaul, and I also needed something fast, easy to maintain, and affordable – something I can do while my kids are taking their afternoon naps, yaknowwhatimean?

Madison Reed checks all of these boxes by delivering rich, multi-dimensional color to my door, at an incredible price.

Achieving My Hair Goals At Home

I’ve been too intimidated to color my hair at home (we’ve all heard, or seen, those horror stories). However, with Madison Reed, you’re applying permanent color to your hair – not lifting it as you would with bleach or peroxide–so you really can’t mess it up.

You can use their “try it on” feature to see which hair color would look like on you, and you can even book a free video consultation with a licensed colorist to get shade advice.

The coloring process is SO easy. Divide your hair into sections, apply barrier cream to prevent stains, then mix the activator and color together. Apply the color to small sections, then put on your hair cap and set a timer for 35 minutes. After processing, hop in the shower to shampoo and condition. This takes an hour, tops!

It's Easy

Coloring your hair at home with Madison Reed is fast and affordable, and it looks amazing! Any time I plan to color my hair at home, I’m reaching for Madison Reed.
