Vegan and Cruelty-free Hair Color since 1977!

About us

Beginning in 1977, vivid rainbow colors dyes were one of the first products to be sold at Tish & Snooky's original Manic Panic® boutique on St. Mark’s Place. In the 90s, due to heightened demand, distribution of our products expanded tremendously. Since that time, the High Priestesses of Hair Color™ have worked continuously to make sure our Manic Panic® formula remains the best on the market by listening to customer feedback and staying ahead of the trends by starting them! In 2005, Manic Panic® introduced the Amplified semi permanent hair dye formula for Dye Hards™ that were looking for an even longer lasting formula. Manic Panic® can guarantee that our products are the best on the market as the dyes continue to be tested and quality-controlled by in-house staff – which includes Tish and Snooky to this day! Manic Panic® guarantees all of our ingredients and all our supplier's ingredients are both Vegan & Cruelty-Free, as accredited by PETA®! Tested On Celebrities, Not Animals® is our motto! Often imitated, but never duplicated because Manic Panic isn’t just a brand, it’s a lifestyle! As Tish and Snooky always say, we don’t just sell it, we live it!

  • 🚀 Revisiting Inter‑Gel‑Actic™ — Manic Panic’s Space‑Age Take on Semi‑Permanent Color Earlier this year, we launched Inter‑Gel‑Actic™, our highly pigmented semi‑permanent gel hair color collection designed to push vivid color into a whole new dimension. This felt like the perfect moment to spotlight what makes this collection truly out of this world. Inter‑Gel‑Actic’s ultra‑glossy, semi‑translucent gel formula delivers bold, multi‑dimensional shine with effortless application on damp hair. No developer, no mixing, and no compromise on intensity. Infused with moisturizing ingredients and vegan lactic acid, it strengthens, softens, and locks in color while maintaining Manic Panic’s long‑standing commitment to being 100% vegan, cruelty‑free, and free of PPD, ammonia, sulfates, and gluten. Available in all‑in‑one DIY kits featuring resealable aluminum tubes, reusable tools, and our Stellar Shield™ Barrier Cream, Inter‑Gel‑Actic makes experimental color accessible for everyone; from bold all‑over looks to mini moments and custom blends. As founders Tish & Snooky Bellomo put it: “Inter‑Gel‑Actic is for the next generation of experimental hair lovers—driven by rebellion, self‑expression, and a refusal to blend in.” Whether you’re a cosmic rule‑breaker, shade shifter, or long‑time lover of vivid color, Inter‑Gel‑Actic is proof that Manic Panic continues to look forward; because beauty has no rules, and self‑expression is always timeless. ✨🌌 Check out IGA: https://lnkd.in/e6hERQ-X

  • Manic Panic Featured in Noir Pour Femmes: Celebrating the Women Who Started a Revolution This Women’s History Month, we’re proud to spotlight the unstoppable women who made Manic Panic what it is today: our legendary founders, Tish and Snooky Bellomo. Featured in Noir Pour Femmes’ latest “In Conversation” interview, the sisters share their journey from the New York punk scene to becoming pioneers in cruelty-free, vegan, high-voltage color. Their legacy allowed others to shine brightly and authentically through their hair and self-expression. As they reflect on nearly five decades of bold creativity, they share, “We’re so happy that the world has finally caught up. What we’ve always loved for nearly 50 years is now so much more accepted”. Tish and Snooky have proven that women can lead boldly, break rules creatively, and build global impact while staying true to their values. Their legacy is a reminder that empowerment often starts with a splash of color, and a whole lot of attitude!

  • Aging Disgracefully: Redefining What Beauty Looks Like For years, the beauty industry pushed the idea that aging is something to “fix.” But at Manic Panic, we’ve never believed in outdated rules, and we’re certainly not starting now. Going grey isn’t the end of your hair journey. For many, it’s the beginning of a bold new chapter. Grey isn’t “giving up.” It’s giving power, individuality, and serious attitude. As our co-founders Tish & Snooky shared with Allure, the narrative around “anti-aging” is long overdue for a rewrite. Aging is natural, and it’s something to celebrate, not correct. Every line, every silver strand, tells a story. That’s why they hand‑selected six bold, high‑impact shades for our new Aging Disgracefully collection. Shop the collection today: https://lnkd.in/eYYW45R2 Because self‑expression has no expiration date. And neither does raising a little hell.

  • Manic Panic in the Spotlight at the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame! 🎸 Page Six covered an unforgettable moment when Chappell Roan honored the legendary Cyndi Lauper, and gave a nod to our punk roots: “From the very beginning, she owned every ounce of who she was: the Manic Panic-ed hair, all of those rad fingerless gloves, and those unbelievably layered, dynamic and one-of-a-kind vocals,” she continued. We couldn’t be prouder to see Manic Panic celebrated as part of Lauper’s iconic legacy. Since 1977, we’ve stood for fearless self-expression and this tribute proves that bold color never goes out of style. Read the article here: https://lnkd.in/ee9S7PC9
