Madison Reed Radiant Hair Color Kit — 9N Medium Neutral Blonde, Salon-Quality Permanent Dye with Superior Gray Coverage

Madison Reed Radiant Hair Color Kit in 9N Medium Neutral Blonde (Nocera Blonde) is a salon-grade permanent dye that delivers natural-looking medium neutral blonde color with superior gray coverage while avoiding ammonia and other harsh ingredients.

This single-pack kit contains everything needed for an at-home permanent color service: Radiant Cream Color, Conditioning Color Activator, gloves, a cap, barrier cream, and clear step-by-step instructions. The formula is Madison Reed’s Smart 8-Free blend, designed to produce long-lasting, dimensional color without ammonia, parabens, PPD, or other commonly avoided additives. Enriched with keratin, argan oil, and ginseng root extract, the kit aims to nourish hair during coloring so strands feel smoother and look shinier compared with traditional box dyes.

How natural will the 9N Medium Neutral Blonde shade look on my hair?

9N Medium Neutral Blonde is formulated to create a balanced, neutral blonde tone that reads neither too warm nor too ashy. It performs best when you stay within two shades of your natural color for realistic depth and multi-tonal dimension.

• Neutral undertones to minimize brassiness.
• Designed for natural-looking multi-dimensional results, not flat color.
• Works well for root touch-ups or all-over refreshes.
• Recommended within two shades of your current color for optimal match.

Will this kit cover gray hair effectively?

The Radiant formula is developed to provide superior gray coverage for those with visible gray regrowth, blending gray strands into the chosen shade for a cohesive finish. Coverage is long-lasting and intended to avoid a one-note or unnatural appearance.

• Specifically tuned for reliable gray blending and coverage.
• Permanent dye that maintains color through regular washes.
• Conditioning ingredients help keep gray-prone areas from looking dry or dull.
• Ideal for both targeted root coverage and full-head application.

What makes this formula gentler than other permanent colors?

Madison Reed’s Smart 8-Free label means the product omits eight commonly contested ingredients such as ammonia, PPD, parabens, and phthalates. The kit includes conditioning components—keratin, argan oil, and ginseng root extract—so hair is treated while lifted and colored.

• Free from ammonia, PPD, parabens, phthalates, gluten, SLS, and titanium dioxide.
• Keratin supports hair strength; argan oil adds shine and softness.
• Ginseng root extract helps condition hair during processing.
• Dermatologist-tested and Leaping Bunny certified for cruelty-free standards.

How do I get the best at-home result with this kit?

Follow the included instruction booklet closely and perform a strand test to confirm processing time and final tone. Staying within two shades of your natural color and timing development according to hair texture will produce the most predictable outcome.

• Perform a patch and strand test before full application.
• Use barrier cream on hairline and ears to prevent staining.
• Observe recommended processing time based on hair porosity and gray coverage needs.
• Rinse and condition thoroughly; follow with a color-safe regimen to extend life.
