Great

first time I've ever bleached my hair. I should've applied it more evenly. it did bleach unevenly like in patches. however, I was very satisfied with the outcome. I have black/dark brown hair and it managed to bleach to platinum blonde in some spots. worth the $$$.

Best bleaching product out

Best bleaching product out there! You get so much product and it does such a perfect job at lighting my hair!!! As someone who bleaches their hair very often, this is my go to! I absolutely recommend this to everybody.

This kit is so

This kit is so easy to use, I've repurchased it multiple times. I naturally have thick, dark hair and this works wonders. I've easily gone to platinum without excessive breakage (everyone is different though so please do a strand test). Good price. Manic Panic Flash Lightning Bleach Kit Cream Developer

Easy to use, processes fast

Easy to use, will process fast. I'm used to the 30 volume kit so when I used this I had to be careful not to overprocess to a platinum blond- but it made the Plum Passion against brown hair look amazing, like an ombré!

Take your darks to lights

I did the thing you're not supposed to do and used this, without a professional's help, on colour treated hair. It turned my natural brown to blonde and my red to a (really neat, honestly) pastel peach. Even though I did it unwisely, it lightened my hair in such a way that the following colour took perfectly. Worked fast, did the job.

Lifted my hair at least 4 levels!

For hair background, its been on my head for 5 years. In those years its been dyed with black box dye, lifted with hair color remover, dyed with reds and purples, and was literally just a black box dye that had a hint to red to it. Im not aiming to go blonde, my goal was to lighten my hair enough to put some Ultra Violet on and give it a pop. I was skeptical because black box dye sucks to remove but I am actually left very impressed. I only had the bleach on for 35 minutes, and im sure I could've gone longer for a lighter color but I was satisfied enough. I shampooed twice and conditioned after, and my hair doesn't feel very damaged!

Effective, but small

This kit works fairly well, but the amount of product is not enough for a slightly less than shoulder length head of hair. I have used this kit twice and both times I experienced no damage. If you're a real beginner I think you'll like this kit. The same effect can be achieved more economically with a bottle of creme lightener and volume 40 developer.

Went way better than

Went way better than I had anticipated. I went from violet to gray using this bleach kit. I highly recommend this product. I needed additional bleaching, but the result was great. I will use manic panic products again!

I have natural 4c

I have natural 4c hair that is in locs. After years of wanting to have the fun colours and realizing they weren't going to show up, I took the dive and bleached my hair. I used the Manic Panic bleach but with the 40 developer. I LOVE IT. I've used it 3 times over the past year and although my hair isn't fully 'bleached' it's lightened up enough to have awesome colours show up as well as just have the 'bleached' blondish-brownish hair. My hair is still super soft and I didn't have any damage to my locs. Of course make sure you're reading directions, not leaving it on too long, avoiding bleaching over previous areas. However, so far, it's been amazing and I've had no issue. I was terrified to bleach my hair at home, but this product is easy to use, includes everything you need and is an amazing find. If you have thick hair or natural hair and looking for something that will work without causing a ton of damage and/or damage your curl pattern this is a good product to try.

Best in the Hair Bleach Business

This is honestly the best hair bleach I've ever used! I have tried my fair share of other hair bleaches, including the Color Oops brand, but there is no substitute for Manic Panic. After trying (and failing) to get some stubborn black hair dye out, I actually found success with this product! My hair didn't dry out horribly, though I would highly recommend using a deep conditioner afterwards before dying your hair.

my go to!!

I have used this on myself and my friend multiple times and it always works amazing. and on previously dark colored hair although it takes a few rounds to come out the best at first so I've purchased about five of these lol. but all worth it!

Successfully lightens black hair to WHITE

I have black hair with extreme red highlights - I have tried using many drug store bleaches, as well as paying salons, to bleach my hair. I only ever got it to a terrible butter yellow color. A salon employee actually told me that was the lightest it would go! Then, I found Manic Panic bleach.

The first time I used Manic Panic bleach, I applied it over my whole head - some of my hair was my natural red/black, and some was blue. I ended up with a really intriguing cotton candy look. Next time I used Manic Panic bleach, I applied it to my roots first and then the rest of my hair. My roots were WHITE. I was so impressed! I will keep coming back and buying this bleach, absolutely!!

I can finally dye my hair!

I received both this bleaching kit and a bottle of manic panic hair dye recently for my birthday, but was very skeptical due to the darkness of my hair and the low success rate with hair dye in the past. Despite this, I tried out the bleach and the change was immediate. My hair quickly went from a blackish brown to a light blonde, and looked amazing. I also put in the dye, and it finally worked to appear in my hair. I will never buy from anyone other than Manic Panic again.

It really is different

Wow! I have lightened my hair at home twice before, but this product lifted the color much more effectively with notably less damage! I achieved a light enough base for a pastel pink even though my hair is dark brown. The damage was manageable: a couple good conditioning treatments and it's almost back to normal!

This kit is amazeballs...

This kit is amazeballs, srsly. If youre bad at proportioning (Iike me) this makes it dummy proof. It has everything you need including gloves (which I ALWAYS forget, and the brush it comes with is helpful and you can keep it and reuse it. I dont bleach my hair often, but when I do I use this kit ;)

Great great value for cost

Killer lift every time, works fast so don't dilly dally on the washout, consistency makes it easy to apply to large amounts of hair (like 3 ft long), so beware of scalp as with all lifting bleach, do the scalp last. But was able to get an all over lift without taking so long it burned hair off. Excellent kit, worth ever penny.

Flash✔️ Lightning ✔️

Usually just buy the regular flash lightning kit, but thought I'd give this 40 volume a try. Works crazy good, and fast. Definitely would not recommend leaving it on as long as you would with the 30 vol.

Straightforward and easy to use!!

I used this kit on my very short hair a couple times and I've loved it! It's super easy to use, and it works well. I didn't do the best job applying and there was definitely some darker areas, but overall it lifted my darker brown hair to bleach blonde. I used the Venus envy dye afterwards and I've loved the results every time! Definitely an easy kit that's worth it's price.

I love this bleach it...

I love this bleach it's my go to, it works so fast and lifts color very well. I recommend it to everyone who asks and even use it on people I color their hair. I don't love the stinging from the bleach in the air it burns my eyes most of the time.

The best..

I haven't used manic panic since I was a teenager. Ngl tho I had my doubts when I bought this thinking I would need 2 applications for my dark brown hair as I did in the past with other bleach kits. I was super surprised tho at how much it lifted with only one application. Lightened it enough for use with the semi permanent colors which I needed. Also, your hair is gonna be on it's death bed by the time ur done so I suggest using a hair conditioning mask & leave on for longer than suggested. (at least 30 minutes.) It'll definitely help bring it back to life.
