Manic Panic hair dyes

Ok, so I just wanted to share some experience dying my hair with MP. First of all I decided to give it a go, because I heard it was vegan, semi-permanent and didn't last too long. (Well, my parents didn't want me to dye hair with something that would last for months. They are strict, so I could make them agree only to this brand after showing some reviews.) When I first dyed my hair with Hot Hot Pink (amplified formula), I thought colour would fade after 2-3 weeks, but it lasted for...... 2 MONTHS... And even after 2 months, the colour was vibrand and beautiful. It faded evenly into a colour bit darker than Cotton Candy Pink. I was impatient, as I've already ordered Enchanted Forest and got bored of pink. For that reason I just bought ColorZap, stripped the colour and applied my green. The colour was gorgeous and although formula was not amplified, it lasted just like pink, 2 months. Even after 2 months, the hair still looked good. My hair also felt healthy and soft. I naturally had oily hair, so even after the first bleaching, my hair has never felt dry. I think I'm lucky in that sense. I faded green to a very light shade using C vitamin and dandruf shampoo and decided to dye my hair with Deep Purple Dream. NEVER do that 😂 As some strands were still green, my hair turned out blue at those parts. I used ColorZap and went blonde again. I use Deep Purple Dream as a toner right now, mixng it with conditioner and works well for me, slowly and gradually removing brass. I bleached my hair again just to go silver later. Sadly Manic Panic didn't have a silver hair dye, so I switched to Pravana Chromasilk Vivids. I'll do a review later on that.
So, to sum up, I've had good luck with Manic Panic so far. It was easy to wash out and fade, easy to dye, didn't bleed much after the second wash. Of cource I have  my own secrets why colour lasts longer on me until it starts to fade. I don't wash hair with any shampoo. Shampoos just wash out the colour fast. I've recently started washing hair with only baking soda. I don't know how Manic Panic would last if washed with shampoo, but for me it worked great. I think I'll switch back to MP after I'm bored wearing silver. 😂

I'll attach some photos of me with MP hair dyes a bit later. I'm resizing photos right now 😂

Manic panic do have a silver shade; Blue Steel. From what I have heard it isn't as good as Pravana silver though.

Oh I remember now, yes there's Blue Steel, but as I've seen from photos, it looks like silver mixed with blue dye. I'm looking for something more pure silver. That's why I decided to try pravana this time. hope it works 😃
