I'm thinking of dying my hair a different color. And I was wondering if anyone has any views on Manic Panic's color dye. Also I'm not very clear on the coloring directions.. Here's what my hair looks like now. It's a washed out burgundy color. Any opinion on a new color?

I think manic panic fades waaayyyy to fast in my opinion and also I had trouble getting the red colors by them to be true to color.

I used it back in high school when I would change my color every couple weeks. If you bleach your hair at least once, maybe twice, then apply the manic panic it will last around 2-3 weeks depending on how hot you shower and how often you wash your hair. I loved the bright pink back when I was using them! But as others have already stated it will be very damaging to your hair, that's why I stopped after a while.

Manic Panic has it's good and bad attributes. I've used it for two different hair colors, and both times, it faded way too fast for my liking. But I do like how it's vegan and it's colors are pretty vibrant while they do last. When it comes to the bleaching, that's going to be with any unnatural hair color, not just manic panic, since I'm going to assume that's what you want since that's what manic panic is. I've had the electric lizard green and the purple haze purple, I loved the purple because if faded to a super cute pink, the green was like highlighted green and it faded to a pee yellow. So it really just depends on the color you get. And there is plenty of ways to prevent damaging your hair so badly when bleaching, don't let anyone scare you away from expressing yourself. Do your research before anything else, and you will be fine. Don't just jump into such a delicate thing. Good luck :)

I just used purple Haze and it completely faded away after 2 washes... At least it faded to a pretty Magenta lol.

@Candace and @Lody you two are lucky your purple faded into pretty colors. When my purple faded out it turned my hair grayish silver.
