[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I switched to Madison Reed for color and still see my regular stylist for cuts.  Color is crazy expensive on this area.  MR color bars do a good job.  [/quote]

Can you explain them? Do they just give you a bottle of dye to apply at home and you're paying to buy that? Or do they do your hair for you?[/quote]

So you can buy their color and do it at home if you want.  I have mine done by them at their “color bar”.  It’s a similar concept as a “dry bar”.

You make an appointment for color. They keep your info with your account, so it doesn’t matter who’s doing your color, they can access your info so your color stays consistent.  They can help you pick the right shade if you need it.  Color is applied, you sit until it’s done, then they wash it out.  You can also sign up for a blow dry if you want.  Otherwise you can dry and style yourself at their dryer station or just leave either wet hair.

I have to be careful with color as I’m allergic to ammonia color, but I’ve been fine with MR color for the last few years.  I actually pay for the membership so I can get my roots done anytime I want.  I like that it’s fairly easy to make an appointment at the last minute. For example, I made an appt earlier today for tomorrow morning.

I have gotten face framing highlights a couple of times and they came out nice.  They’re not going to be a replacement for high-end highlights and lowlights though.  And you don’t get to pick your colorist, which can be a bit of a bummer, especially if you add on a blow dry.  They usually do a nice job with that though.

I’m very happy with the experience.  They make it easy to maintain my color at a reasonable price.  And when I’m traveling I can go to a Madison Reed anywhere and they have all my info and can take care of my hair same as if I was at home.  They have really democratized hair color.  It’s a good business model.  [/quote]

DP.  This sounds great, I might try it!  I guess they don't cut hair there too?  [/quote]
