MANIC PANIC Review

Hola, llamas!!

I know I said I wouldn't be back for a while but I had a spare minute and felt like blogging.

So.  I'm doing a review on a hair dye that I've used very recently - and by 'recently', I mean that I've got it in my hair now.

What is this hair dye you ask?  Well, the brand is called Manic Panic and this link is the UK website.  I've currently got their Amplified Rockabilly Blue in my hair and I'm not just obsessed with the hair dyes.  I've been doing lots of research - you know how much I love my hair - and the whole business fascinates me.

Manic Panic was the first punk store to open in the WHOLE of the USA.  That's a big deal.  And the women who opened it were backups for Blondie in her original lineup.  So.  BOOM.  These guys are legit.

On to the product.  This hair colour is AMAZING.  It's currently on my paler blondey-green bits and the colour is so vivid and so bright - it's absolutely gorgeous.  I have found that if you want it on darker brown hair that you may need to leave it on longer than the recommended time (30 minutes).  I would suggest pre-lightening your hair to as blonde as possible - DON'T DAMAGE YOUR HAIR - and leaving it on longer than the recommended time.  The hair dye is as natural as possible and vegan and won't damage your hair if you leave it on for ages.  I left mine on overnight to get my colour.  Also, this product isn't tested on animals or whatever - it's tested on celebrities.  Rihanna.  Nicki Minaj.  Holly Hagan.  And many more.  So.  If you liked any of their hair colours, I'd say check out this range - they may have it.

This hair dye is relatively cheap but awesome quality and the Amplified range will last about 6-8 weeks and the normal range will last 4-6 weeks (or so I'm told).  I bought two bottles of hair colour and to just colour my blondey-green bits, I used one bottle.  Check the weight/quantity of the hair dye because I would not want to be caught with only half a head of colour when I realise I've run out.  The Amplified range are 118ml per bottle.

Please, please read all the instructions and warnings and don't go half cocked into doing this.  I regularly colour my hair so wasn't overly worried but you never know if you'll have an allergic reaction or if their will be a problem with applying it or whatever.  Do not follow just my instructions.  Follow the professionals advice.
