Manic Panic Creamtones Perfect Pastel Hair Dye (Sea Nymph)

Bought Manic Panic High Voltage Classic Cream (Atomic Turquoise) for my daughter, who treats her hair colour like a subscription service — new shade every month. The colour payoff is fantastic. Atomic Turquoise is vibrant, bold, and exactly the kind of “you’ll notice it from across the street” blue-green you’d hope for. It goes on smoothly and distributes evenly. What really impressed me is how well it lasts. Even with her washing her hair every single day (despite my ongoing water-saving campaign), the colour holds up far better than expected. It fades nicely rather than going patchy. It leaves hair feeling in good condition too — not dry or straw-like, which is always a concern with frequent colour changes. If you’re after a bright, statement colour that doesn’t disappear after a week, this is a great choice. Five stars. Bold, long-lasting, and apparently worth ignoring my water lectures for.

I used to use manic panic when I was at university, but haven't used it for years. Recently I lost my hair to chemo and it grew back prematurely grey. It was making me a bit miserable so I decided to dye it a bright colour and went back to manic panic. You DO have to be prepared for it to dye your life as well as your hair for a little while, but it IS a temporary colour, it comes off things. When I used it back in the day I'd clean the shower right after dying it so as not to annoy anyone. This time I live alone and so just didn't bother to clean up, I was surprised when on my next shower almost all of it came off the wall of its own accord. The rest came off easily the next time I cleaned the shower. It comes off skin easily too, although I'd recommend vaseline around the hairline before dying. I actually managed to get some on the white painted wall at one point and it came off with an alcohol wipe. The only place I have trouble getting it off is my finger nails. The colour is much more vibrant than I expected, clearly grey hair agrees with it, I'm very happy with it. It's very easy to apply and was gentle on my newly grown hair. I have plenty left for additional colouring over the next month or two, it is too soon to say when I'll need to reapply.

It’s recommended to use 2 tubs on long hair, my hair is relatively long and i only had to use one which is a bonus! I’ve used many many colours over the years and this is the only one that has strongly taken to my hair. i DID use bleach for my brightest sections, admittedly for the most vibrant results bleach is a must for any dye. The colour has stayed vibrant and i have had it for 2 weeks so far, i also ended up using this colour on my boyfriend!

I’ve included pictures of my hair before and after the dye because I wasn’t sure how well it would work on my colour hair when I used it. It’s important to note that I bleached my hair light blonde earlier in the year to dye it pink and so the light brown colour was over that and my roots were my natural hair. Dyes last a lot longer in chemically treated hair, so it’s been 3 weeks now and the majority of my hair has only gone from dark blue to a nice teal colour whilst the natural roots faded back to more of a dark brown colour. It still looks good though in my opinion. If you want a true blue, this might not be the best because it has always had at least a hint of green tones from the beginning. The main downside of this dye was getting blue stains on things but I had already read the reviews and was prepared so it wasn’t too bad. I didn’t rinse my hair until the water was clear when I first dyed it because it was taking so long that it didn’t seem like it would start to run clear, but then even once it was dry, it would stain anything it touched. I also had to clean my bath with nail varnish remover to get the blue residue off. I managed the staining by sleeping with a towel on my pillow and only wearing dark clothes at first. Once I’d washed my hair a few times it stopped staining things so easily. Seeing as how long it’s lasting in my hair, I wish I would’ve just washed it a few times straight away to make life easier! Also, whilst this isn’t a permanent dye, green/blue tone dyes tend to hang around in your hair for a very long time and will probably not completely fade. I already knew this but in case anyone doesn’t know, keep it in mind.

Was supposed to be an intense bright orange, when rinsed off it was a dirty yellow looked more like a pre pigment then an actual colour

Good quality. Amazing colour and last really long

Always makes my hair super vibrant and colourful. I use this every 1-2 months as I love the way the hot pink fades into a softer lighter pink over time, but for someone who wants it to stay fully vibrant you can probably get away with every 3 or so weeks with sparse washing and cool water.

Does ok, spreads well.. but I have white hair.. it came out more blue than purple. Lesson learned, use red based urple on white hair x

Llevo el pelo rubio platino tirando a blanco y no cogió nada el color... no lo recomiendo en absoluto.

マニパニの中で一番好きな色です。青も綺麗だし、シルバーにしたいならライラックがお勧めです。

De base cheveux brun foncé et poreux. Décoloration effet dégradé à 20% et franchement, le résultat est très sympa. Couleur cerise foncé. Bien laissé poser au moins 1h30 voir 2h car moins pigmenté que les produits ArticFox et surtout rincé et entretenir à l’eau tiède ou froide si vous supportez, ça décolore bcp !

kaufe schon seit jahren diese haarfarbe und habe die besten erfahrungen gemacht

First time bleaching, put in the dye, was really nervous how light it was when i applied the red passion. I used two and a half tubs, when i washed it out, it was a bright red. I loved how it didnt look like a murder scene when washing it out. It didnt stain like other dyes, and didnt smell like others do. You gotta remember its a black light dye, so its going to come out neon red not cherry red. Clown red is what it is, but i love it 100%.
