Review on πŸ’œ Vibrant and Bold: MANIC PANIC Ultra Violet Hair Dye Classic for a striking hair transformation by Jessica Green

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Works as a filler and temporary toner.

I'm a bit bored in wedding season and decide to try a new look and get some highlights. Big mistake. I had fancy half tangerine half blonde hair, level 7 or 8. Not a good prospect. Not wanting to let the stylist experiment any further, I went home and decided to play the mad scientist. I first used level 7 blonde to even out the color but it was still too orange. I then ordered a manic panic ultraviolet to use the filler and toner. Since it's a direct vegan dye, I figured it would be less harmful. It was. I mixed it with conditioner [2 tbsp. manic panic in 1 gr. conditioner] and leave the mixture on your head for 35 minutes covered with a plastic bag. Then rinsed off with lukewarm water. My hair was a lot less orange now. The next day I dyed it with another level 7 ash dye (Joico Vero K-Pak 7A). Now it was the perfect light ash brown or very dark blonde with hints of gold. I used the same manic panic conditioner mix once a week as a tonic to keep the orange at bay. Didn't hurt my brittle bleached hair.

Pros
  • Best in Niche
