Pretty Good!!
I used this as a refresher in between colorings. My hair is naturally dark brown. I don't bleach it so it's hard to get it to the shade of red that I want it but with this it really brightens the color. The bottle says to leave it in for 30 minutes but I've read that some people leave it in overnight or for several hours and the color lasts much longer. I'm going to try it. I know it's not a permanent hair color so it rinses out every time you wash it. I use cold water and sulfate-free shampoo because red tends to fade very fast. — 1 year, 1 month agoThis review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 2 of 2 people said helpful

Love
I used to have hot pink hair, and this was, by far the best vibrant hair color out there. The texture is perfect-thick enough to glide through the hair without dripping and being runny. It smells nice, still chemical-but not strong. They have a huge variety of colors. Give it a try, the store in Venice Beach is awesome! — 1 year, 10 months agoThis review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 5 of 5 people said helpful

Great for vibrant, bold colors
Manic Panic is a pretty good semi-permanent color. It works best of hair that is damaged so for my brown hair I have to blast it with bleach first, rinse, shampoo (without conditioner) and then slop it on. It is really easy to use. The colors are very vibrant and for the first 2 weeks or so they stay pretty bold before starting to fade. I use less shampoo and sometimes "wash" my hair with conditioner instead to keep the color longer. After that I find I need to do touch-ups ever 2-4 weeks to keep my hair really bright, otherwise the color turns into a pastel version of itself and then a dingy blonde. This doesn't really work on brown hair and even on dishwater blonde hair I'd recommend a round of bleach first. Fun stuff. — 4 years agoThis review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 4 of 5 people said helpful
