Madison Reed Trieste Red (5NRM) Review


*This post contains affiliate links

Last year I was introduced to Madison Reed.  It quickly became my choice coloring option for many reasons.  First, it’s not full of harsh chemicals.  Second, it’s convenient and third it’s affordable.  I love the colors, I love how it makes my hair feel healthier and how it’s  a complete coloring kit from the comfort of my own home.  I don’t know about you, but I absolutely hate spending over $100 on harsh chemical hair color, spending 3 hours at the salon and having my hair fade in a few weeks.  Totally not worth it!  So I’ve gone from Palermo Black – 3NVV(last winter), to Bolzano Brown – 4NMG (my summer color) and now for the fall, I’m trying Trieste Red (5NRM).

First off – here’s the results of my before:

My hair is brown…no highlights and not much dimension.  It felt very dull and I needed a shine in my hair. Badly!

Ok, Drum roll…….Here’s the AFTER photos:

Ignore the fact that I REALLY need a hair cut.  My ends are a flippin’ mess.  BUT the new hair color has given my dull hair a new life.  I LOVE the results and the tone of red that I have now.  It’s a great match for my skin tone.  Which is always one of the hardest parts about coloring your hair – will it match your skin tone?!

When you try out Madison Reed, you’ll sign-up and complete a color Hair Profile .  That color profile will help your online colorosit pick out the colors that would work best with your current hair color and your skin.  It’s really a full proof way to ensure you are going to love your results! (Like I always do!)

I’ve been a Madison Reed fan for over a year…and the love for Madison Reed continues!  If you’re interested in trying them out you can head here.  Here’s what to expect in the box:

FullSizeRender

  • Coloring Mix
  • Shampoo
  • Conditioner
  • 2 sets of gloves
  • a cap to cover your hair while you wait for the coloring
  • a no mess towel to clean up any mistakes you make by getting color on your skin. (who here hates stains from hair color? Me!)
  • a barrier creme to apply around your forehead and anywhere else that you get stains.

You can also buy from the Madison Reed website a full coloring kit, with a coloring brush like a professional in a salon would use.  I think I’m going to order this for my next at home coloring.

If you have long hair, you can also order an extra bottle of color (at a price) so you don’t run out!

If you’re not convinced….here’s a few more points on how great Madison Reed is:
