  • Electric Amethyst. Love the color, but it fades kind of quick? Still wonderful.
(First, I mix up the difference between purple and violet.. I know one is a bluer purple/violet, so I will just be calling this purple) This stuff is a unique color. And fades pretty rapidly. However, I LOVE the color that it fades into. It's a real fun experiment, watching the colors change. Like a tree's leaves in the autumn months.. If you don't like the color it fades to (I love it, it want from a bluish purple to a purplish blue to a light blue to an aqua color. ) then just re-dye your hair. If you don't like the idea of color fading, get used to it, or don't dye your hair unnatural colors. It does seem to me like it fades faster than other hair dye from Manic Panic, but it has also been a while since I have dyed it a fun unnatural color. This shade looks wonderful on my skin tone personally. Some people look good with other purples, and I found my purple. (Violet?) But this one is unique. I love it. ... show more

  • don't rely on Reviews fully!!
I am 43 Yrs Old I have been dying my hair weird colors since I was 16. I started out mixing koolaid hair conditioner and food coloring.That was a bit of a challenge. started using Manic Panic when I was 19. I read reviews on many of amazon's manic panic pages even artic fox's. there are a few things that could be going wrong for those dying their hair with either product. So I was writing this to per haps offer a bit of my own advice from experience. If you are bleaching your hair. Give your hair 1 day to relax and condition it after bleaching.Personally Olaplex No.1 is great however not to my experience to use the day you apply your manic panic/or preffered dye wash your hair with dandruff shampoo IE head and shoulders .. this will not strip hair the same as normal shampoo do not condition before bed is best time to put manic panic/arctic fox into your hair . wraps your head with something like seran wrap not tight obviously or use a shower cap. sleep with dye in your hair .NO it's semi perminant hair dye which means no harmful ammonia or other damaging agents. Rinse when awake . More you wash your hair the faster it will come out . Some hair types require for people to wash daily. I would keep to an dandruff shampoo. Personally I wash mine 2 to 3 times a week max and my hair doesn't fade so fast. UPDATE; it's been a month my hair has faded to a light purple.. I could probably go longer before it completely fades out. my recommendations do not pay attention to the ones who gave a bad review.Some are new and Manic Panic does not mention that the longer it is left in the longer it will last. That might solve some problems. I feel before you chose any semi perm dye to do a bit of research and make your choices by those of us who been doing this for years or a hair stylist. ... show more

  • Great as a toner. Meh as a dye.
I know Manic Panic has been around for a while, but this was my first time ever using it. While I didn't hate it, I probably won't buy it again. I was looking for more of a pinky purple than a violet purpley purple, but this was all I could find so I decided to make it work. My hair was a dark blonde that ombre'd into a light blonde when I started (first pic). I bleached it first (55 minutes) which turned everything orange (and my roots white!). So I mixed some of the Manic Panic with white conditioner to make a toner. I put that on my hair for about 15 minutes and rinsed. It came to a nice light platinum blonde color. Then it was time to dye. I made another mixture of about 1/4 white conditioner with 3/4 color and slapped that on my head. I mixed conditioner with mine to keep it from being TOO purple. If you want that dark WOW PURPLE, then don't do what I did. I put on a shower cap and kept it on for about 4 hours. After rinsing, I wound up with a weird silver color with blue tips and roots (second picture). Two days later, I did another round of color. This time I did 2/3 color and 1/3 conditioner. I left it on for another 3 hours and the color came out WONDERFUL. It is absolutely beautiful and I got so many compliments on it. I am a little upset that this washes out almost completely after 2 washes. Usually temporary color lasts at least a week (4+ washes). I probably won't use this color again unless I need to make a toner. It works PERFECTLY as a toner. Seriously. The best I've ever used. My hair has never gone from yellow to silver so quickly and easily. ... show more

  • Disappointing
I was so excited for this color and I'm so bummed. I bleached my hair first and did everything right, but most of the color washed out right away. I got a smokey bluish purple, not a vibrant purple like I expected. Well, I got the vibrant purple in 2 spots, right above my ears along my scalp, but literally nowhere else. I don't hate the end result, but it is definitely not what I expected or what the ad showed the result would be. I was told Manic Panic was one of the better options for vibrant color hair dye, but I won't be using it again. Very disappointing. I will say it was very easy to use, thick easy to apply texture, but also wish there was more in a container. I only did the underneath layer of my hair and one tub was enough, but if I did all my hair, it would've taken three of these. ... show more

  • Bold color, lasting color easy to apply
Excellent product!!! Highly recommend. I use it whenever I need to dye my hair and the color is amazing, lasts a long time. Very happy. Will keep buying it.

  • Too thin! Didn't dye at all!
The dye was super watery and would not stick to my hair at all and even after waiting a bit longer than I usually would, my hair did not retain the color whatsoever. I have used Manic Panic for years and their dye was never so thin. I even bought another purple dye along with it (I was doing a two-toned hair color scheme) and that one worked perfectly and had a much thicker consistency! But this one was horrible and I wish I could get a refund. Just wasted my time and money and I don't think I'll be buying from them again if they are going to be so unreliable. :( ... show more
