I have been dyeing my hair with Manic Panic for about six months to a fuscia pink. My hair is naturally blonde so this has worked out well so far. The problem is that it washes out....everywhere! My tub is hot pink, my sink.....you get the idea. I'm looking for something more permanent. I know that Redken makes color fusion in a violet red color to which I can add a developer to for permanent results. However, I don't know if I'll like this color. I know I like the semi-permanent color Manic Panic I've been using. Would it be possible for me to use the Manic Panic as a base color and use the developer to make it permanent? If not, what volume developer should I use with the Redken color? Thanks

Like the first answer said, eventually it will wash out. Colors that are not natural fade very quickly. You can go to a salon and they will be able to mix colors to make it the pink you want, I had this done once at jcpenny and I got just the pink I wanted and when you wash your hair, it doesn't come out because it is meant as permanent, not temp as manic panic is. I used blue manic panic and it came out within 3 days and left a very yucky greenish color. The only thing I can tell you to do is to get your hair professionally done every month or so to maintain the color and if you don't have the money, just re dye every month.

There is no way to get permanent pink color - it is always going to wash out even if you use a permanent dye. It will stay a little longer, maybe 2 weeks max but that's it.

id stick with a semi permanent one since its less damage to your hair..
i dye my hair bright red all the time so i know where your coming from.. ive used manic panic and it washes out so damn quickly..
but now i use ONLY 'special effects' dye..
its semi permanent too and it last 10x longer!!
i dyed it green and it last about 3 months..
I mean it does fade when you shampoo your hair, but just not as quick as manic.
i really urge you to use this one!!

to make it permanent u need at least 20 volume and yes u can do this with manic panic..you could use up to 40 volume on ur hair depending on the porosity (the health of the hair) that will make it permanent

try "special effects" hair color...i used to use "manic panic" & was unsatisfied because i was touching up my color every other week-what a pain in the a**!!! now i use "special effects" & am completely satisfied...i used the "atomic pink" 2 months ago & my hair is still a very shocking color!!! so, i definitely recommend trying it!!! u can buy it at hot topic, on ebay, etc...

I WOULD USE REDKEN HI-FUSION "R"(LIKE FUSCIA PINK) AND THE "RV" WOULD ROCK TOO, THIS WILL SHOW THE SAME RESULTS USE ONLY A 10 VOL. EQUAL PARTS. ITS HOT! THE COLOR JUST POPS. AND DON'T WASH WITH HOT WATER ANYMORE, USE MORE LUKEWARM TO COOLER WATER. THE COOLER THE WATER ON THE HAIR THE LONGER THE COLOR LASTS.. TRUST ME I'M A RED/PINK/PURPLE HAIR DYING GIRL.
