Real Life Madison Reed Reviews: Light Works Balayage Highlighting Kit

From like it, love it, to HOW-DID-I-EVER-LIVE-WITHOUT-IT (caps lock intentional)...we’ve been getting rave reviews for NEW Light Works™, and we couldn’t be prouder of this first-ever at-home balayage highlighting kit. Here are just a few of our fave bits of feedback, from both video tutorials and online reviews…

Caramel highlights with beauty & hair vlogger BiancaRenee

LOVE it!
"I'm loving the results! My hair is highlighted, but looks natural and definitely better than it did. It also feels great, which is fantastic after highlighting. And now that I've done it once, I'm sure I'll get even better when I do it again. It beats going to to the salon for 4 hours and spending 5 times as much any day. Highly recommended!"
—Morgan

I had THE best results with this product
"I am not the type of person to spend a ton of time on my hair but I had THE best results with this product. If I can do it, anyone can. My hair looked healthy, natural & sunkissed. Highly recommend."
—Emily

Best I've ever had!
"The product I had used today exceeded all of my expectations! It turned my dull, brown hair into a work of art! I would recommend this product to anyone and everyone! <3"
—Taylor

Vibrant, rich color coverage
"I was very nervous heading into my first self-highlighting application, but I am absolutely thrilled with the coverage, the fun, sun-kissed, full coverage highlighting. Blonde for the meanwhile...and loving it. My hair is very soft, and shiny."
—Jenn

Great product
"I am very happy with my results. The video was very helpful in the application process. I would recommend this product to anyone looking for natural-looking highlights."
—Nadia

I am blown away that I did this!
"I was very excited to try, but was equally nervous about my ability to apply the lightener with precision. The process starts with the bottom layers and you work your way up which led to a comfortability throughout the learning curve. I am blown away that I did this! What else do these guys have?"
—Lauren

Couldn’t be easier
"I was really intimidated but this honestly couldn’t be easier! And I’m so happy with the results: subtle & sun kissed."
—Ash

Cool toffee highlights with beauty & lifestyle vlogger Deanndra
