I had a good experience until I didn't. I was overcharged, wasn't given the correct total, and figured out the real total once I received my credit card bill. This was the final straw for me. I canceled my membership after realizing that no one wanted to help me figure this out. Now, I received my credit card bill, and again, they charged me. After emails and no answers, I will post to social media to get Madison Reed to answer me and CANCEL THIS MEMBERSHIP. I'm sorry I ever trusted this company. They try to sell you more th... read more

I am disappointed in my visit to this location. No barrier cream was put on my skin and there is a huge amount of discolored skin around my hairline, about 1/2 inch thick in several places. I did not have my hair washed at the appropriate time and was left waiting much longer than the color should have been left on. Once I pushed the point, they did get someone to wash my hair. I have been to other locations and did not leave with embarrassing discolored skin and the wash was done right on time. The color itself looks g... read more

Extremely weird and off putting experience at this salon not to mention awful results that were not at all what I went in for. My stylist, although a very nice individual to myself and his coworkers, was a very odd person who was saying very nonsensical things from the moment he started working on my hair. I'm talking almost incoherent things that bordered on insane(saying my bf whom he's never met and knows 0 about likes to carry loose candy in his pockets??, is very young at heart, and has a spiritual connection with foo... read more

I've been using Madison Reed salons post covid. The Newport Beach location is really frustrating. You book your appointment in the app and three times in a row they canceled me without my consent. I have a favorite stylist who has done a beautiful job with my color, and the manager Emma switched me to someone else and told me that I could not request anyone in particular. Emma said she was happy to cancel my membership and made no effort to rectify the situation to make her customer happy. This is the worst customer service ... read more

If you have blonde in your hair don't come here. Worst experience I've had in any hair salon I've ever been to. Tried to show the stylist what I wanted and she disregarded it & proceeded to tell me to chose what toner I wanted ?!? How should I know?!? I told her I wanted my hair to just be a chocolate brown no more highlights blend my hair. Once we finished rinsing she left me in the chair for 30 minutes I thought she was gonna come back and do something and then said okay, you can blow dry your hair in the station over ther... read more

I had a very poor experience at the Fashion Island location of Madison Reed. They were significantly behind schedule, left the color product on my hair for 15 minutes too long, rushed through the shampoo, and when halfway through blowdrying my hair I discover they didn't rinse out all the color product. They offered to wash my hair again, however I chose to go home to wash and dry my hair. The whole process was dragging out so long. The staff member still wanted to photo my hair which I declined and she did charge me for the... read more

I had the WORST experience at Madison Reed Fashion Island Newport Beach. I was disrespected, ignored, lied to, and humiliated. The District Manager, Ciello, was very rude and EXTREMELY UNPROFESSIONAL!! She apparently fired the specialist who was taking care of my hair IN THE MIDDLE of my waiting for the 45 minute timer before my shampoo rinse!! Who does that?!! Someone should have told me that this occurred and assured me that I will be properly taken care of, however, this did not happen!! Instead, I had to ask someone ... read more

I was pleased with the service I received the first time I visited even though my color was way to dark. The technician was personable and very attentive. The second time I went in A different person applied my color even though I asked for The original person. So the color was applied. Never saw that person again. Another rinsed it out. I didn't book a blow dry but decided I wanted one. I went back to my chair and sat for awhile. Another person finally asked if I booked a blow dry. I said if possible I would like one. Two p... read more
