About Manic Panic

Manic Panic is the iconic American hair-colour brand founded in 1977 by Tish and Snooky Bellomo in their Manhattan boutique — one of the original homes of New York punk fashion. The brand's High Voltage Classic line has become a cult favourite for its bold, vivid colour pay-off and gentle, vegan formulation.

Key benefits

• Highly pigmented direct dye in a vibrant golden Sunshine yellow.
• Conditioner-based formula that nourishes the hair while colouring.
• Vegan and cruelty-free.
• Free from ammonia, peroxide and PPD per the brand.
• Semi-permanent finish typically lasts four to six weeks, fading gently with each wash.

Who it's for

Anyone wanting a bold yellow hair colour without the long-term commitment of permanent dye. Best results are achieved on pre-lightened blonde hair — the cleaner the base, the brighter the final colour.

How to use

1. Pre-lighten the hair with bleach if not already very blonde — Manic Panic colours are translucent and rely on a light base.
2. Wash hair with a clarifying shampoo and leave dry or slightly damp.
3. Apply petroleum jelly along the hairline to protect the skin from staining.
4. Wear gloves and apply the dye generously through the hair, working from roots to ends.
5. Leave on for at least 30 minutes (longer for more intense colour).
6. Rinse with cool water until the water runs clear.
7. Towel dry and avoid sulphate shampoos to keep the colour vibrant.
