My hair turned green-Do not buy!
I used the colour raven on my bleached hair like the description said works best. It looked really good at first, it was just a bit patchy and different colors (view picture). But only after one wash you could see a green undertone in sunlight and after two washes my hair was fully green. Wasted 400kr on this and had to spend even more money to get it fixed. Total disappointment!!!!1 product in post My hair turned green-Do not buy! - The post was made 2 weeksRating: 1 out of 5
Terrible
Read the reviews carefully before ordering color from Manic Panic! I ordered Raven, which was supposed to be a deep black color with blue undertones. My hair turned blue-green with a black undertone. It stained EVERYTHING. The sink, the shower, clothes, everything. It ruined the grout in my shower and the doors as it also wouldn't come off with bleach. I rinsed the color out for 30 minutes and the water was still not clear. Gave up and continued the next day when I saw it had turned very blue-green. Decided here to shampoo and try to get all the loose color out as it was still staining everything, my whole bed was blue after I slept in it with dry hair. Shampooed 7 times and it was still running blue shampoo/water, the color refused to rinse out. Waited a day and continued but this misery never ended! Realized halfway that the more I shampooed, the greener it got, so by the third day my hair was some form of medium green color. To avoid looking like Shrek at work, I panicked and bought a black toner from another brand with a neutral undertone, and it saved, thank God, my hair so it turned black without undertones. Now, 4 weeks later, I still wake up to find the pillowcase is green/blue, have to re-grout my shower and possibly replace the doors in it. Only recommend if you want to ruin your weekend, increase your anxiety, throw away all the sheets and towels you own, and mimic the witch in Wicked!1 product in post Terrible259 views- The user's roll: Customer service at Lyko. The comment was made 2 weeksHey Tina! Oh, it really sounds like the Raven adventure turned out to be anything but what you hoped for 😳 We really understand the frustration when the result isn’t what you envisioned, especially when you’ve fought so hard to get the color out ❤ Manic Panic is a direct-acting, intense color without hydrogen peroxide – which means the pigments adhere to the hair strand instead of penetrating it. This means that some shades (like Raven with a blue undertone) can turn green depending on underlying pigments or how porous the hair is. What you’re describing is therefore completely in line with color theory 💙💚 A little tip for next time is to think about where you rinse out the color and what you have around you – strong pigments can otherwise stain furniture and textiles. And especially when using direct-acting colors. Since the pigments don’t sit "locked" in the hair strand with direct-acting colors, some wash out with each wash or when the hair gets damp. Therefore, they can: - Stain towels, pillowcases, and clothes - Stain in the shower (especially on light surfaces) - Sometimes "bleed" even when the hair is dry Some dark, cool tones can also "bleed" a little extra during the first washes – completely normal for this type of color. Similar to color treatments, etc., but they are usually a bit milder in pigmentation. Thank you for your review and for emphasizing the importance of reading the instructions ❤ Have a nice day 🧡1 likes

When you open the jar, you have to use it all. So you can't save half and use it another time1 product in post Manic panic195 views- The user's roll: Customer service at Lyko. The comment was made 2 weeksHey Annah! Great question😊 Since it is a single-component color, you can definitely save half and use it later 😍 However, if it had been a two-component color that needs to be mixed, it wouldn't be possible to save it as it would oxidize, and then the color could become different from the original😀 Hope you are satisfied with the product!

Hair Bleaching
Do you have to bleach your hair before using the color if I have very dark brown hair, or can I just put it straight on my hair1 product in post Hair Bleaching822 views- The user's roll: Customer service at Lyko. The comment was made 2 monthsHi Olivia 🌟 To get the best results with Manic Panic Semi-Permanent Hair Color Cream in Vampire Red on very dark brown hair, we recommend that you first bleach your hair. The color will be much more intense and vivid then. If you use it directly on dark hair without bleaching, the color may become more subtle and give a reddish sheen, but not as clear and strong as on lighter hair. Hope you have a nice day ahead❣️

Help
My hair turned blue-green, what should I do?1 product in post Help677 views- The user's roll: Customer service at Lyko. The comment was made 3 monthsHi Anna, Thank you for your question! I’m sorry to hear that the result didn’t turn out to be the desired shade 🩷 According to Manic Panic's instructions, hair should always be lightened first. Their recommendation is to use the product Manic Panic Hair Bleach for lightening. The result shown in the product images is generally achieved when the starting condition of the hair is white! Of course, the final result of the dyeing also depends on the hair's condition, quality, and other products used 😊 However, if you suspect the product is defective, please register a complaint on your user account so we can look into the matter further with the product's importer! Here are a few other black hair dyes if you want to try a product from another brand: lyko.com/en/wella-professionals/wella-professionals-color-touch-pure-naturals-black-2-0 (permanent dye) lyko.com/en/hermans-professional/hermans-professionalcolor-black-dahlia lyko.com/en/schwarzkopf/schwarzkopf-brillance-intensive-color-creme-890-black (permanent dye) Have a lovely day 🌞2 likes
Manic PanicSemi-Permanent Hair Color Cream Electric Banana
Semi-permanent hair color. Vegan ingredients. The color fades with each wash. The Amplified variant lasts 30% longer than the Classic variant. Comes with instructions in English.
Tips for coloring your hair:
Start with hair bleaching (we recommend Manic Panic Hair Bleach. Follow the instructions on the package). If you're using a different bleach, skip the after-treatment product/conditioner.
Rinse your hair with water.
Apply the hair color and use a comb or hair dye brush to distribute the color evenly, massaging it into your hair with your fingers. Let it sit for 15 to 60 minutes.
Rinse your hair thoroughly until the water runs clear. Finish with cold water and, ideally, conditioner.
Remember, the final look depends on your hair's initial condition.
Our products are usually hypoallergenic, but if you're unsure, do a patch test on your skin, like on your elbow (it will leave a color stain, so choose wisely). Wait a couple of days and check for irritation. If you experience a rash or similar, refrain from using the hair color.
For a result as vibrant as our test images - always bleach your hair first. Light colors like white and pastels only work on bleached hair.
Our white colors are actually very light purple, which neutralizes yellow tones, so don't worry if it looks light purple after dyeing; it typically washes out after the first wash.
The closer your hair is to light blonde, the closer the color will match our examples. None of our colors are harmful; they're ammonia-free.
Different colors fade at different rates due to their pigments.
Dyeing very blonde hair red? Expect the color to last 6 to 8 weeks. The color fades gradually, turning orangey or pinkish, depending on your hair's original color. Red shades are stubborn, while blues tend to wash out easier.
Our example images were tested on synthetic hair, so results may vary on real hair. Also, colors may appear differently on various screens.
Red shades can vary in intensity depending on how long the dye is left in your hair.
Be mindful that the dye can transfer to skin, clothes, towels, and surfaces, so protect everything you don't want stained! This includes freshly washed hair.
We're not responsible for any discoloration or stains on clothes, furniture, etc. Everyone's hair reacts differently, so we can't predict your specific results. Always do a strand test first.
