Like most with dark hair, I started noticing grays at an early age. I tried to ignore them at first, but those little hairs peeked out of every hairstyle, and my self esteem was shot. Investing in a regular root cover up was a total game changer for my confidence (but not my bank account!).
Admittedly, the reason I didn’t start covering my grays from the start was down to the cost of monthly maintenance at the salon: $86 per visit (cost of service + tax + tip), no small amount for me and my tight budget. I knew there had to be a better way to keep my confidence up and my spending down.
That’s when I started thinking about Madison Reed…
Here’s What I Discovered
I had seen ads for Madison Reed in the past, but I always assumed it was like any drug store home dye kit that would leave my hands tinted, my towels stained, and my hair a dreadful uneven tone.
A friend of mine switched to Madison Reed right around this time, but to my surprise, her hair looked like she just stepped out of the salon. Intrigued, I did some research of my own, and found countless five star reviews from other happy customers.
Needless to say, I signed up for my first ever hair dye membership and got my first box a week later, which included everything I’d need for expert results, including color, conditioning activator, barrier cream, cleansing wipes, a protective cap, gloves, color protecting shampoo and conditioner, and customized instructions.
It was that easy!
Madison Reed Helps Me Save BIG Without Sacrificing My Color
The first time I used Madison Reed, I was blown away by the results. I truly couldn’t tell the difference between Madison Reed and my hair color post-salon.
Thrilled, I sat down and calculated the total cost of a yearly Madison Reed membership versus the salon prices. I was seriously shocked when I realized that if I kept up my monthly salon visits, I would spend $1,032 total a year.
Priced at $25 per month ($300 annually) with the flexibility to pause or cancel anytime, a Madison Reed membership could save me almost $700 a year.
On top of that massive savings, they also offer tons of membership benefits and perks: every box in my subscription is 20% off, and I also earn $10 for every $200 spent. So that’s another $60 saved a year, a total of $732 in my pocket.
A Loyalist for Life
Aside from saving over $700 a year by switching from salon color to Madison Reed, I also love the convenience of my membership. I have a one year old son, so my free time and mental space is super limited. Having my ideal color on autoship leaves more time to focus on my family and friends.
If you’re unsure where to begin, Madison Reed has experts at the ready to chat online and help you choose the color that’s right for you from the comfort of your own home. And if you’d prefer some in person expertise before you get started, you can book a free in person consultation at one of their Hair Color Bars!
As an added savings bonus, Madison Reed sends me a gift every year on my birthday. 🎂
Madison Reed is My Secret to Affordable, Salon Quality Color
Feeling confident about how I look is so important to me, but it’s certainly not priceless. Thanks to Madison Reed, I’m saving over $700 a year, a ton of emotional labor without having to book a monthly salon visit, and my hair color looks better than ever. Win-win, right?
