MANIC PANIC Enchanted Forest Hair Color - Amplified - Semi-Permanent Hair Dye - Deep, Teal Green With Blue Undertones For Dark & Light Hair, Vegan, PPD & Ammonia-Free, For Coloring Hair on Men & Women

I used this product on my daughter's medium brown, unbleached/undyed hair. Most hair color charts place her natural hair color as a level 5. She really wanted her hair to be the same magenta/fuschia color as the character she wanted to be for Halloween (Mal from Disney's Descendants 2, hair is more pink in this movie, where it was purple in the first). I did quite a bit of research first, and chose this based on reviews and photos from other customers. The Manic Panic website also recommended the Hot Hot Pink (and a few others) for unbleached hair as opposed to other colors, so I would stay with their recommendations. I was worried that the color wouldn't show up at all in her hair, and she hates the spray on hair color (which may wash out, but is full of aerosolized chemicals, and I don't like my kids inhaling that stuff). This item had no chemical smell at all. My daughter's hair is typically more towards the oily side (as much as it can be for an 8 year old, for an adult, it would be considered neither oily nor dry). However, she spent a considerable amount of time in the pool this summer, which did dry out the length of her hair somewhat. This may have allowed the dye to penetrate better, despite this being months ago. The dye did seem to adhere just as well to the roots. I rinsed her hair with diluted apple cider vinegar first, while it was still dry, and rinsed well. Then I blow-dried it completely. After thoroughly coating her hair with it, I blow-dried her hair again for about five minutes, put it in a plastic cap, and left it on for a little over 2 hours. I put a towel over the cap as well to keep in heat, and blow-dried it again for another five minutes before rinsing. I had no issues with rinsing it in the shower... it did not turn her back pink while rinsing. I used vaseline around her hairline and had no problems with staining. Since then, there has been the usual issues of staining of pillow cases (and also her forehead, which has acquired a pink tint in the past few days because she has bangs. Nothing worse than expected. The color is still the same a week later (which surprises me, I now wonder if she'll have pinkish hair at Christmas, because I expected at least a little fading within days). When her hair was first rinsed, I worried at first that the color didn't take. But when I started drying it, I was astonished. Because her hair was darker, the hot hot pink color showed up almost the exact same fuschia color as the character's. My daughter was thrilled, and while the process probably took about 3 hours plus, I didn't have to spray her hair full of noxious smelling spray, which I'd have had to wash out on Halloween night when we were both exhausted, and she is just beside herself. Her school has no dress code issues with hair colors, so I don't have to worry about that being an issue. It's incredible that this showed up with her hair being darker. I would buy this product again.

For some unknown reason, I thought it would be fun to dye my hair two shades of blue for the Fourth of July trip we were planning to take to South Padre. As you can expect it did not go well and I could not get rid of it!!! Color oops would not work, and I tried clarifying shampoo after clarifying shampoo. I didn’t want to put bleach in it so I thought thought well. I will just try to go over it with red since that is the color I typically dye my hair anyway. To my surprise, it colored the ugly blue, although it did make a bit of an ombré as it got darker toward the middle and end, so it almost looks black. Nonetheless I’m glad it is not blue so I am perfectly fine with it. No bleach, just 2 bottles of straight vampire red. I did cover it with two Walmart bags while it processed and fell asleep in it. Nothing happened. It actually seemed to make it softer. I will say that this was a month ago and it is still bleeding red to this day in my shower, so keep that in mind! Lol I don’t care because I am so glad it is no longer blue!!!! I hope my review was able to help you make your decision, have a great day!!!

Dude the color is awesome!!!

I have dirty blonde/ dark blonde hair naturally, so I didn't bleach my hair at all. I also only dyed the bottom 6-8 inches of my very long straight hair, going for a ombre look. First of all, the bottle doesn't look like the tub in the photo, it's more of a bottle. I believe it is still 4 ounces though. I have never dyed my hair or anything like that, so the first time I was nervous. First of all - USE GLOVES. I braided my hair in sections and applied the dye to my hair ends with my hand, working through the locks of hair to make sure to get it on most of the hair. I wasn't super picky and wanted a more fluid/ gradient look, but that would be different if you were doing your whole head. After the first application of about 6 inches worth of my kind of thin hair, I had used up maybe 1/5th of the bottle. After reading other reviews and watching some video reviews on youtube, I decided to let it sit in my hair for about 4 hours. Then I rinsed it really well in the sink. IT WAS REALLY BRIGHT! I loved it! I don't wash my hair every day, probably every 3 days, and it started fading noticeably after 1.5 - 2 weeks. The second time I dyed it, I did the same process, only I left the dye in overnight. The third time it was in for almost 24 hours (this was two days ago, my hair is totally fine). I don't think leaving it in longer makes it more bright, but I think it makes the staying power MUCH longer. After the second application it was probably like 75% gone after 3 weeks (of washing 2x a week). Keep in mind I have unbleached, virgin hair. One thing I want to mention is that the manic panic is VERY conditioning! It's great, it definitely doesn't wreck your hair at all. Also, lots of reviews mention the mess... Maybe it's different because only the bottom half of my hair is dyed, or maybe people aren't rinsing it thoroughly, but I have not had a problem with dyed towels, sheets, clothes, etc. As for the shower/ sink, it will get it s bit pink, but if you do a cursory clean right after you are done rinsing (I simply wipe it with a baby wipe), all the dye comes off. All in all, I would recommend this product, although I have nothing to compare it to. I didn't give 5 stars because I wish it would stay just a bit longer, a month maybe?

An extremely intense pink color that goes on smoothly and easily. I have medium dark hair so I bleached before applying. (I used Manic Panic's Amplified Bleach. If you are doing a lot of hair, or your hair is long, I would get 2 bleach kits if you are using this particular brand.) Manic Panic is easy to apply - just apply the color where you want it, leave it (I left it for about an hour), rinse out. And rinse out. And rinse out. lol Expect to turn your towel pink - for the next couple of washes. The less you wash your hair, the longer it stays. After a few washes, this color will turn a nice shade of pastel pink. (Still pretty.) If you want seriously bright pink hair, just recolor it when it begins to fade. It's MUCH easier to color the second time, since you most likely will only have to apply the color - not bleach. Right after coloring, be careful - ANYTIME your hair gets wet, the color WILL run. (It will also get under your nails when you scratch your head.) These minor annoyances don't bother me enough to stop using Manic Panic...but I would want to know this stuff before I used it. Bottom Line: Manic Panic is the BEST product out there for coloring your hair funky shades. It lasts much longer than any other brand I've tried, it's easy application makes re-touches "cake", and the colors are bold and brilliant. I wouldn't hesitate to use this brand, or color, again. You definitely make a statement! (If you want a pastel shade to begin with, buy their Pastel-izer. It will turn any bold shade of Manic Panic into a subdued pastel.) ManicPanic.com is full of awesome information and great tips. There's even a spot where they show what the hair color looks like on real people. Best part? The don't test any of their products on animals. YAY!

It went into the hair nicely and the color was great, but it faded really fast. It’s been about two washes and it’s nearly gone, meanwhile the other dye I used for the split-dye is going strong. Might be great for someone who changes colors often and wants it to fade out quickly.

I bought three colors of the amplified dye: bad boy blue, cotton candy pink, and ultraviolet. I've been using the classic dye pretty regularly since covid hit, and I was at home more than anything else and had no one to impress. I was hoping that since the amplified is supposed to have more color pigment, that it would either last longer, or be more vibrant. Sadly, neither seems to have been the case. First to address how easy it is to use. The little squeeze bottles tended it to make a mess and I ended up wearing as much of the dye as ended up in my hair. The jars that the classic color come in are definitely easier to use, especially if you're using a dying brush. As for longevity, I dyed my hair a week ago, and I'm already considering having to redo it. The pink was by far the worst, as it has completely faded from my hair and left it a sort of sad gray color. The blue really didn't take to my hair very well, but it at least turned a nice denim color. Unfortunately it has already started to fade in spots as well. The ultraviolet has stayed better than either of the other two, but I can already see where it is fading as well. I would be willing to say that perhaps it is an issue with the color choices because I have never used bad boy blue or cotton candy pink before, but ultraviolet is perhaps my favorite color offered by manic panic and I use it fairly religiously, so I know that it should have stayed vibrant longer than a week. I stick faithfully to the manic panic brand of dye because it tends to stay vibrant longer than any other brand I have tried to use. Overall, I will not be buying the amplified die again, because it is certainly not worth the extra cost. My advice is to find the color you like in the classic dye, and stick with it. It stays longer, and is cheaper. One star, because it wouldn't let me put zero.

Very good!

great product

2nd fois que j'utilise Manic Panic et pas déçu de ces produits. Ici le vert est lumineux. J'aurais simplement dû prendre deux bouteilles parce que mes pointes sont mitigées [j'ai les cheveux mi-long]. Autrement, j'en suis pleinement satisfait.

This colour will only work if your hair is very light blonde. That being said, it makes an okay toner!
