Overview
Manic Panic hair dye is a semi-permanent hair color that lasts between one and three applications. Your hair needs to be pre-lightened or bleached to achieve the vibrant colors. The longevity of the color depends on factors like shampoo frequency and kind, so it’s best to use sulfate-free, color-safe products.
Red Shades
Manic Panic offers a range of stunning red shades that deliver vibrant results on bleached hair. For a red dip-dye style, section your hair and apply the dye using a tint brush. Leave it on for 30 minutes before rinsing off. The color can last up to four to six weeks, but using sulfate-free shampoo and avoiding chlorine or direct sunlight will help extend its lifespan.
Blue Shades
Manic Panic has various blue shades, from bold tones to mermaid-like hues. These colors work best on pre-lightened hair and should last for several weeks with proper care. Unlike other semi-permanent dyes, Manic Panic does not contain bleaching ingredients, so the color may wear off faster, especially when exposed to UV rays. Apply the paint to dry hair and distribute it evenly with a tint brush.
Green Shades
Manic Panic offers a range of stunning green hair dye colors. Different shades may require pre-bleaching, while others are designed as semi-permanent and do not require developer or hydrogen peroxide. The color can last 4-6 weeks, but using sulfate-free, color-safe shampoo and applying hair oil between washes can help preserve the vibrancy.
Purple Shades
Manic Panic’s semi-permanent hair dyes come in vibrant purple hues that can last up to six weeks with proper care. Aftercare is crucial, including spaced-out shampooing, using heat protection products, and protecting your hair from chlorine, saltwater, and UV rays. Apply the dye to pre-lightened hair and conduct allergy and strand tests for the best results.
