Madison Reed Radiant Hair Color Kit 9NA Medium Cool Blonde (Pisa) — Permanent, Superior Gray Coverage, Ammonia‑Free

Madison Reed Radiant Hair Color Kit in 9NA Pisa (Medium Cool Blonde) is a permanent, salon‑grade at‑home hair dye formulated for natural-looking, dimensional color and superior gray coverage without ammonia or PPD.

This at-home kit recreates the same formula used in Madison Reed Color Bars to deliver a multi-tonal medium cool blonde with ash undertones. The Smart 8‑Free formula avoids harsh chemicals commonly found in box dyes while infusing strands with keratin, argan oil, and ginseng root extract. The kit is designed for root touch-ups, full head applications, and covering greys for people who want a conditioned finish and reliable, lasting color.

How does this shade perform on natural or previously colored hair?

9NA Pisa is a medium cool blonde with ash undertones that shows best when you stay within two shades of your natural color. On slightly darker hair it lightens subtly with cool reflections; on lighter hair it refines and cancels warmth. Results vary by starting colour and hair condition, so a strand test is recommended before full application.

• Best within two shades of your base color for predictable results
• Neutralizes brassiness with ash undertones for cooler blonde tones
• Works for both root touch-ups and all-over color refreshes
• Perform a strand test to preview the final hue and timing

What ingredients help protect hair during coloring?

This permanent color blends pigment with conditioning actives to reduce the dry, brittle finish often associated with box dyes. Keratin helps reinforce the hair’s surface, argan oil adds shine and softness, and ginseng root extract supports a healthy-feeling fiber. The formula avoids ammonia, PPD, parabens, and other harsh additives, helping preserve hair texture through the process.

• Keratin — smooths and strengthens hair cuticle for silky feel
• Argan oil — delivers immediate shine and softness post-color
• Ginseng root extract — nourishing extract for conditioned results
• Smart 8‑Free — avoids ammonia, PPD, parabens, phthalates, SLS

How easy is it to use the at‑home kit and what’s included?

The kit provides everything required for an efficient at‑home application: radiant cream color, conditioning color activator, gloves, protective cap, barrier cream, and an illustrated instruction booklet with timing guidelines. Application is straightforward whether you’re covering roots or refreshing your full head, and the included instructions mirror salon techniques used at Madison Reed Color Bars.

• All-in-one kit: cream color, activator, gloves, cap, barrier cream, booklet
• Step-by-step instructions for roots and full head application
• Suitable for subscribers who recolor every 4–6 weeks
• Dermatologist-tested and Leaping Bunny certified for peace of mind

What should I expect for gray coverage and longevity?

The formula is designed for robust gray coverage that appears natural and dimensional rather than flat. As a permanent dye, it resists fading for weeks, though upkeep depends on hair porosity, washing frequency, and exposure to sun or chlorinated water. Many users refresh color every 4–6 weeks to maintain even tone and coverage.

• High gray coverage for a natural, multi-dimensional finish
• Permanent formula offers long-lasting pigment retention
• Longevity varies—refresh intervals commonly every 4–6 weeks
• Color fade can be minimized with sulfate-free shampoos and cool water

Who this kit is for: 9NA Pisa Medium Cool Blonde is ideal for anyone seeking a calm, ash-leaning blonde with dependable gray coverage and salon-caliber results at home. Choose this formula if you prefer products free from ammonia and PPD, value nourishing ingredients like keratin and argan oil, and typically recolor every month or so to keep roots seamless and tone consistent.
