Manic Panic Atomic Turquoise Review

well hey!

In an effort to get this blog going, I'm gonna do a review (that I don't have a video of yet u__u") on Manic Panic's Atomic Turquoise.

This was actually the first EVER alternative color I had ever tried on my hair. This also meant that it was my first time ever bleaching my hair.

Scary, but I made it though. :D

Unfortunately, since it was my first time bleaching my hair, I didn't have any idea how long to leave it on, or how light to get my hair.

I lightened my naturally light-ish brown hair (at this time, it's gradually getting darker as I get older though >:I ) to an almost light honey blonde.

Poop photo is poop. Dealin' with it.

'Neways. so I put the Atomic Turquoise over my honey-ish hair, and low and behold, my hair was not light enough to get that pretty light blue that I was so looking forward to. :(

Needless to say, it turned a dead-slug green that was very unappealing.

 

oh boy. yeah it may look alright here, but I was DEVASTATED. I played it off like I didn't mind, but deep down, I was really really worried.

I had just bleached my hair (and at that time I thought I had killed it (even though it was hardly damaged)) and dyed it for nothing?! 

All ended well, and I put Manic Panic's Shocking Blue over the green, and it was very very pretty. n__n

Buuut....

Atomic Turquoise was the original reason WHY I wanted to bleach and dye my hair, I LOVED this color from the pictures I had seen of it. 

I had to try it again.

So I did.

By this time, when I bleached my hair, it was a very light yellow. Not quite white, but kinda getting there.

And boy oh boy did I leave that shit on for a looooong time.

the light blonde ^^^

end result^^^

This was a GORGEOUS color. 

holy crap. loved it.

Probably my most photographed hair to date, haha.

super lovely light blue color. very bright

I got tons of compliments on it :)

It stayed for a pretty good long time too. :3

Sadly, my happy times with this hair were cut short by..

CHLORINE.

Stripped my hair of all color very quickly :(

it turned a silvery-blue-seafoam instantly

wahhhhh ;___ ;

Over all:

-Awesome color

-Pretty good staying power

-Fades nicely

- Needs very light hair to work on

-No chance against chlorine, haha
