Tips: The lighter the hair the brighter the colour will come out.
I am a long time colourer of my hair , and have used multiple bright dyes to create my locks . On a whim , I tried this product . Firstly , it is quite pricey if you purchase instore compared to others . I did a little research and got it offline . Secondly , I found with Manic Panic that the existing colour needed to be seriously bleaced before applying their product , which I found quite trying on my hair . I also found that the amount of product I had to use to get the colour bright enough was most of the pottle , whereas with other dyes that I still use to date such as Paintbox or Special Effects , a bottle would last months . I found the formula quite watery and sliding around the hair a lot . Once the colour was finally to my ( admittedly fussy ! ) liking ; it did not last long before fading . I was quite disappointed with this product as I so wanted to like it . I did try it twice more with different colours hoping for diferent results , but was let down again .
I used this a couple of years ago when i dyed the bottom half of my hair hot hot pink and i loved it thew colour was amazing so bright looked fantastic, i have brown hair and just dyed the bottom half with a blonde super market dye to lighten my hair to a ginger like colour then dyed over it with this which worked perfect, only annoying this is i had to redo it every week but i think that is just what you get with these bright products,I preferred this alot more than paintbox, and i found it was super conditioning and left my hair felling great!
Tips: I have a pic on my instagram @jamielynnekirk with the difference between paintbox and manic panic if anyone wants to see, scroll down the bottom of the pics :)
I would say this is average hair dye. Its ok and you get a good amount but the is abit on the expensive side.But is ok.
I definitely prefer manic panic over paintbox, however if you are wanting a better quality long lasting dye, go for the manic panic amplified series of dyes.
Tips: These tubs last forever, even if already opened, if you find you have some left in the tub, leave it in your bathroom until next time. When you dye your hair with these, make sure your hair is pre-lighted, this is critical for the colour to turn out properly. This dye does not damage your hair, so the longer you can leave it on, the better! Overnight if possible, wrap your hair up in gladwrap, and sleep in it and wash it out in the morning in the shower. For best results, rinse it in white vinegar in the shower!! It sets the dye so it lasts longer. If you are wanting PASTEL colors, mix a whole tube of white conditioner with a few drops of the colour in a snap-lock container, until it is slightly darker than the shade you want to achieve, any left over can stay in the container until next time (pastels require a lot of maintenance! you will need to dye your hair every 5 days or so)
I had finished my fudge paintbox so went to find a store that sold something similar. I was told Manic panic was good, I purchased it for $30, I got deep purple. Its a round container and I found it difficult getting dye out as I didn't have a brush to dip it into the product. The colour lasted 5-10 washes for me, I was able to use this dye 3 separate occasions. I prefer fudge paintbox than this one.
manic panic are cool only wash out time is like fudge really quick. loses its vibrance after one wash.
Tips: if your keen on upkeep go for it. or put a little on your shampoo when you wash keeps it bright.
These very much depend on the colour.. I've had colours that just don't hold very well and others that are amazing. Vampire Red is my ultimate favourite red! applied over dark hair it gives a nice tint in sunlight.. I use this once every six weeks on the length of my hair when I touch up my roots and it keeps my red vibrant like no other!
Tips: The longer its left in the better!
I've used this dye a few times as a pastel colour as well as a darker dye. As a pastel i found it was far too much maintenance for a hair colour and gave up, I had purple streaks for a month after i'd initially died it. I recently re-dyed my hair with this product and it lasted well over a month (still vibrant) with no re-dyes. I also love that it isn't tested on animals and is vegan!!!!!
I have been using the Atomic Turquoise for a few months now to colour the ends of my hair. It is the amplified version (which is meant to last longer). When I first put the dye in, the blue colour is lovely and vibrant, but I find after the first wash it fades A LOT, and turns a green/blue colour in my hair. I haven't re-coloured for a few weeks now and the colour is still there though, just a very faded green colour. So it lasts for a long time, just not at it's best. It didn't turn out quite the blue tone I was expecting either, but I like it anyway, and have received many compliments on it.
Tips: Be prepared to recolour often if you want a vibrant colour.
