Background
[edit | edit source]Madison Reed was founded in 2013 by Amy Errett.[4] In 2017, Madison Reed opened brick-and-mortar "Hair Color Bars" in San Francisco and New York City for root touch-ups and glosses.[5][6] By 2020, demand for at-home hair color increased significantly during the COVID-19 pandemic, contributing to revenue growth.[7]

Their formulas are cruelty-free (certified by Leaping Bunny) and Smart 8-Free, meaning they do not contain ammonia, PPD, resorcinol, parabens, phthalates, gluten, SLS, or titanium dioxide.
