For almost two years now, Madison Reed has been my go to for hair color and styling products. I absolutely love them…for many reasons. I’ve tried 3 different colors including Trieste Red, Palermo Black, and now Positano Black, which is a black color with hints of deep cool brown (all from Madison Reed). I’ve had a lot of red in my naturally brown hair since last fall. I was ready for a change and going darker for a little bit was what I decided to try. 🙂
Here’s the color of my hair before I dyed it:
Confession: It’s been months (5 since I last colored my hair, so as you can tell…I needed to!)

Here I go…I REALLY need this color. I always wear a junk T-shirt so I don’t ruin my clothes….
One of my favorite things about the Madison Reed kit – the cleaning wipes and barrier creams that come in the package. The barrier cream is for your hairline, neck and ears. Really any skin that you don’t want to stain. The cleansing wipe it to fix those skin mistakes quick! No dyed skin here! 🙂
You’ll combine your color with the activator and shake! Apply gloves and apply! Ok here’s a GREAT freebie that’s valid only today! Get a free bowl and brush when you purchase a Madison Reed hair color kit! You’re going to want this…so get it free today!! You’ll be able to apply the hair dye like a pro!
Now you’r ready to apply! Apply evenly and throughly! Then place your cap around your dyed hair for 25 min. HI there! 🙂 So flattering right. lol
There’s a 2nd set of gloves in the kit to use in the shower. You’ll be able to rinse off your dye with no skin contact! Look at you like a professional colorist! 😉
Madison Reed also carries a line of other hair products to protect, shine, shampoo and condition your hair! I LOVE every product I’ve ever tried. Down to the simple hair comb. You don’t realize you need this hair comb until you try it. Then you wonder why you didn’t find it sooner! 🙂
The Style Color Protect keeps my color lasting
The Shine in amazing! I have very coarse and hard to manage hair. The Shine makes my hair look like it’s been professionally blown out. I LOVE Shine!
OK here’s my BIG reveal. I LOVE THE COLOR!!!!!
Here’s a side by side for your viewing pleasure:
The color is exactly what I was looking for! If you’re looking to go darker I highly recommend Positano Black! It’s been weeks and my color still looks this good! (With the help of my products as well!) 🙂
SEE! Don’t make fun of the pic…my husband takes the BEST photos!
