Dying my hair

I want to dye my hair pink, blue & purple. I know I'll have to bleach it a lot :P I use lighter colors when dying my hair. Except when I'm dying it black or whatever. But yeah, I'm thinking of going with Manic Panic. I want a light purple, blue, & pink. If theres any other better hairdyes out there besides Manic Panic I would like to know. But it can't be too expensive or too cheap. Right now, my hair is mostly black, theres some brown, and a few reddish blonde parts.

Well, your hair color combination sounds interesting. I think the dying with Manic Panic is fine, yet make sure that the color combination you want to use goes well with your skin type, might sound awkward, but a friend of mine did the same and her tanned skin just looked odd, she began using blemish balm for paler skin. It worked really well. And the colors of her hair were more shiny it seemed. I suppose it's just the contrast, but it worked.

I know eveyone wants to be more charming. But I think nature color is good for hair. I won't make damage to the hair

Well, I have a certain plan to dye my hair almost white. Problem is, I have a really old black color in my hair still, and a great part is outgrown in the front, which is light brown, so I have to pay a big amount for a barber to remove that black part, so it doesnt turn out piss-yellow instead. But I dont have that much money to deal with.

I dye my hair the blackest I can find, then use Borne Blond Maxi to bleach & use Splat for the wild colors, blood red, blue, purple, pink, etc.

For unnatural colors, Special Effects is the best and longest lasting that I know of, and isn't damaging. Of course the prebleaching *is* damaging. I just dye my hair black. All the other colors I've tried just don't seem to look right on me.

Well have you ever bleached your hair before? That can hurt and I'm allergic, yet I've tried it twice trying to get white hair. Never again, oh my god. Blisters all over my head. Try not to get too much on your scalp.

Also, my hair is currently jet black with purple bangs.

You're not trying to do it in one go right? If you're trying to go for white, or even if you just have dark hair to start with, you must do it in shifts. You only leave the bleaching agent on for 10-15 mins at a time and you wait 2 weeks between treatments making sure to pamper your poor, abused hair and scalp.

I tried to bleach my hair once... I looked like a rotting pumpkin. It was not pleasant.

Yeah... I'm an impatient person. I cringe at the day I did that. I just spent hours stripping the color out and hours of bleaching.

Never understood why girls keep dying their hair GF does it all the time, just make sure you do the tests you don't want a reaction, I know someone who used the same hair dye for years then last time they used it they had some swelling nothing major but google hair dye reactions to some bad cases, but i'm sure you know what your doing

I've tried Manic Panic, Special Effects, Splat, and a couple others, and I keep returning to the Splat. It's more easily accessible here in redneckland (nearest place to purchase anything else is an hour away) and seems to last just a little longer in my hair. I only use the Raspberry, though, with a little black on top.
