The staff here is AMAZING! From the moment I walked in to the moment I left I felt like I was treated like a rockstar. Even though I was the last appointment of the evening, I didn't feel like they were rushing just to get me out. The Bethesda location is easy to find and near lots of parking garages. However, I am not crazy with Madison Reed Color in my hair. Although most of my gray is covered, it looks rather dull already (and yes, I am using color saving conditioner).

It was a wonderful experience so far. The professional did a excellent job and all in the salon was really nice. So in the same time, I decided to participate in the membership program. I win a big discount and full-size shampoo and conditioner. I love it.

I was curious about Madison Reed, so I was excited to learn that a Color Bar was opening in the DC area. The good: The service is excellent! You are walked through the color selection process, and everything is explained along the way. I love that I was attended to even when my hair was processing. The not so good: In the end, I learned that my gray hair doesn't cover well with their coloring. I came in for a second treatment, because half of my roots didn't get coverage at all. But after washing it at home a day later,... read more

I've been a longtime user of Madison Reed hair color in the mail, so I was thrilled when they opened a brick and mortar location near me. I opted for the roots + gloss treatment and had Tiffany as my technician. She was super friendly and helped me pick a new shade that would be better for my skin tone (I went from Sardinia Red to Genova red which is sooo much better). I added a hydra boost to my shampoo bc my hair is super dry in the winter. Afterwards, I opted to treat myself with a professional blow out. I think her name ... read more

Update: Within the hour of me reporting the incident, the manager called me and apologized for behavior. It was refreshing to have a such a quick response. They gave me a $20 gift card and acknowledged the behavior was inappropriate. I did cancel my membership. Unsanitary + Aggression: The daughter of the owner's attitude is entitled to put it lightly. Her unprofessionalism showcases that plainly. I feel bad for the people who have to work with her. This is my 2nd time coming to the shop and she handled me so roughly. T... read more

What a horrid experience from start to finish. I'm a brand new client and was so excited. This was the one moment of peace in my day and I left in tears. I went in there for a balayage, roots, and a blow dry. It was such an awful experience I modified the booking to just roots- and in retrospect I should have canceled entirely. Stay far away from Victoria. She shampooed my hair and was supposed to blow dry but it was such a bad experience I just decided I'd be better off not letting her touch my hair. It was obvious the ... read more

disaster. my daughter went in for a subtle highlight. She came out with darker but orange hair. Technicians asked me how long product was on - I think this is their job. we left and went straight to Aveda for a color correction where they told us this happens frequently with this place. I don't like to post negative reviews but don't want anyone to go though this. $550 her hair isn't back to her normal Color and i will probt pay double next weekend after a temporary fix and will go back to aveda next week to hopefully get he... read more

I've been a MadisonReed member since 2015--today, I finally had enough. Here's why: Inaccessible Support Impossible to reach decision-makers. Their online chat is a dead end, and the AI-driven phone menu makes connecting with a real person nearly impossible. After waiting 1-2 hours on hold, reps either give incorrect guidance or refuse to help. Requests to speak with a supervisor are flatly denied. Recurring Complaints Trustpilot rating: 1.7/5, with numerous customers reporting unresolved issues and billing problems trustp... read more

I was 10 mins late - admittedly my fault. I apologized and they didnt seem to be mad or but the colorist proceeded to rush through the process, sloppily sweeping huge parts of my ears and neck with color, and then using the alcohol swabs after to (sloppily) clean skin - which she didn't do well. As soon as she was done she rushed off for the next 45 minutes behind closed door. and when i began to feel discomfort in my neck from the color being all over and well below the hairline, i had to flag down another (extremely nice... read more
