How To Dye Your Hair Lavender/Pastel Purple {Manic Panic Ultra Violet}

[@pinkofhearts09]

don't worry about it not being all "even". i am a hairstylist and you literally did what you are supposed to! plus it not being all even actually gives the hair some dimension =) looks awesome!

[@MeganJoyBlog]

Thanks Lauren, good to know I wasn't off with my technique :) Thanks so much for watching and subscribing!

[@lolakane2161]

the best pastel lavender hair ever

[@MeganJoyBlog]

+Lola Kane That's so kind of you! Thanks for watching and taking the time to comment :)

[@oliviadees9916]

I love this so much. I just went platinum/ash blonde with the intention of silver but may do this lavender in the near future. Thanks for making this awesome video!

[@MeganJoyBlog]

+Olivia G Glad you found it helpful Olivia! Thanks for taking the time to comment :)

[@MaestroTechs]

You were looking gorgeous with the blonde hair but even more beautiful and young with the paster/lavender hair color . Keep it up beautiful woman .

[@MeganJoyBlog]

You're so kind. Thank you!

[@BiancaLeCoeur]

It’s absolutely gorgeous. You did a fantastic job! I’m looking for videos to even out my super pale blue and pale pink ombré to get back to a more even tone. Yours is my favorite. Thank you for sharing. 💙

[@ameliorating]

Finally, a hair dye that is the right shade I want. I think I might try it soon, and thanks for taking the time to showcase it!

[@FeralBoneLady]

You already look young, but that pastel tint makes you look even younger and your skin looks flawless with the contrast! It's stunning.

[@MeganJoyBlog]

+That Lovely Bitch Wow thanks so much! I'm 30 so anything that makes me look a little younger is fine by me :) Have a lovely day!

[@PatriciaBlomeleyMaddigan]

Looks great! Such a soft, gentle looking colour! I think your hair style suits the lavender colour.

[@MeganJoyBlog]

Patricia Blomeley-Maddigan Thanks Patricia! I think if my hair was longer I might try doing more of an ombre look with this colour. We'll see :)

[@lourdesgarcia5601]

that actually turned out better than most videos I see it's easy and not so hard on your hair, good job

[@MeganJoyBlog]

Lourdes Garcia thank you! And thanks for watching!

[@vvkitty24]

Wow looks great on you... now I wanna try it. Even looks likes it lifted? the blond to a silver.

[@MeganJoyBlog]

Vanessa Ness I love that it gave my hair a silver colour as it was washing out. I'll definitely do it again!

[@NikkiHall-ob5ko]

The Manic panic is a deep conditioner. So regardless of adding the extra conditioner you would not feel “over processed”. I think that color is beautiful and I’m jelly ❤️

[@LOLMEL]

I love this! I think the tint is perfect and looks like you did that method on purpose. So rock it, girl! Amazing!!!

[@MeganJoyBlog]

Melissa San Vicente Thanks so much Melissa! I had to try the pastel hair craze at least once while my hair was so blonde :)

[@heythere5817]

manic panic can never make hair feel processed even without conditioner cause theres nothing damaging to it

[@nadia-theviewisbeautiful1442]

Obsessed with this color on you! I'd love to see an update down the line on how it faded/how long it lasted!

[@MeganJoyBlog]

Nadia - The View Is Beautiful So far it lasted two washes. I did it again last night and added a bit of extra purple so maybe it will last 3 washes this time? Not long but it's fun just to have it lavender for a few days anyway :)

[@sophdoeslife]

I NEED to do this! xx

[@MeganJoyBlog]

+sophdoesnails Let me know if you try it out! I'd love to hear how you like it :)

[@shahinqureshi3266]

you are already beautiful the color makes you look more gorgeous

[@WolfMoon]

I had to watch the video again. I just love this shade on you. You look like a fairy

[@krysg1304]

Wolf Moon I've never heard of this happening to someone before. People always say that ultra violet makes your hair lighter and silver as it fades. Is your hair bleached or is it a natural light blond? I have natural platinum blonde hair and I'm wanting to do this but hoping it will not fade to a weird color

[@Hollyshousewifelife]

Ok I am freaking obsessed!!!!! I have been wanting lavender or cotton candy pink or grey hair for so so so long but I'm unfortunately cursed with the dark hair gene! It looks AMAZING on you! you must keep us posted to how long it lasts. I am also a hairdresser rule breaker ;) I dye my sisters hair all the time and I'm sure my hairdresser may cringe at our "process" but her hair always turns out great hahaha I have used the manic panic pink on her a few times and its one of our favs. I really want to dilute it to a soft pink with conditioner now!

[@MeganJoyBlog]

Holly Housewife I actually have brown hair naturally too but I've been a "bottle blonde" for many years now :) I've never been THIS blonde before though, so I thought I would take advantage of it and play around with some fun colours :) It only lasted a few washes but I'm ok with that. I used such a small amount of dye that I could re-do it 50 times before I run out of colour!

[@alexisrose4221]

Megan Joy ^ you really could. i have been using the same bottle of manic panic ultra violet for 3 months now. using it once or twice every week. maybe you can check out my toning hair with manic panic video!:) i go through a lot of conditioner, but it's only $2 ! it's awesome!

[@googiekali11]

Holly Housewife Girl, I have naturally brown hair that was dyed red at least 10 times along with many other colors, and I was able to go blonde in 2 hours. It will definitely damage your hair, but if you baby it, it's not that bad. Just definitely go to a higher end professional and make sure they use Opalex. It was so worth it for me.

[@aaronking7326]

Im dying to try the spray on my 80s rocker wig....Just a mist to give the strawberry blonde a hint of purple

[@vicki4370]

gorgeous color on you just beautiful. and it really conditioned your hair. Bonus! My tub of ultra Violet arrived today, excited to use this week!

[@natsukigenosuke3968]

Nice new hair colour , mild purple 😍

[@alibre4484]

You look amazing with the lavender hair.

[@xristinarose2409]

The colour is gorgeous! I do wonder however... did this fade and leave any green tints? (a few weeks/months later)

[@reginahanson2186]

I used this on grey hair. I loved it! It took about a week and a half for it to fade.

[@SimplyFashionTV]

Lavender looks great on you, girly! Love it!

[@MeganJoyBlog]

SimplyFashionTV Thanks so much! It was a fun look to try out :)

[@brittnutt7023]

Lavender looks gorgeous on you!

[@MeganJoyBlog]

+brittnutt7023 Thank you Britt, and thanks for watching and commenting too :) Hope you enjoyed the video!

[@runningcloudmiranda]

woop! I wish I was blonde and could try this haha. The good thing about this colour is that even while it's fading away, it still looks awesome! you're so cool now haha

[@MeganJoyBlog]

Miranda Voth Haha am I cool? I don't know about that lol But I am loving the colour. I just wish it lasted longer. But when it fades it goes to a grey-ish colour and I love that too.

[@sydneyfiggat833]

Loved the color it turned out to! When the lavendar color washed out, was your hair back to your normal blonde? Or did it have a weird hue to it at all? That's my only concern with doing it!

[@MeganJoyBlog]

I can only speak to my hair but it fully washed out after about four washes. It didn’t leave any pigment behind or any weird tint. Hope this was helpful!

[@ashleytihy2055]

I'd like to know what eye-shadow and lip color you used... it looks great!

[@MeganJoyBlog]

Thanks so much for watching! I used Colourpop eyeshadow in Bites and NYX Soft Matte Lip Cream in Sydney :)

[@eedensangel]

awsome lovely colour, just hoping they sell ManicPanic in Oz thanks for sharing

[@brigeTTekucheRRy]

it looks great! a light tint is perfect. Cross your fingers mine looks half as good!!

[@WolfMoon]

This color looks so gorgeous on you!

[@MeganJoyBlog]

Wolf Moon thank you so much! Xo

[@pink1972]

I loved the way ur hair turned out 2 be 😊

[@MeganJoyBlog]

Thank you so much! xo

[@eedensangel]

i couldnt find the Manic Panic where i live so i used purple Brites, like you i mixed it with conditioner.... i had my hair professionally streaked and a lilac wash put on it the other day looks really nice but too expensive to keep going to hairdressers.. what i would like to know is how often should i put a toner on and how often should i put the lilac conditioner on... thanks

[@vvkitty24]

Curious how long it will last as well looks great

[@MeganJoyBlog]

Vanessa Ness Thanks Vanessa! It only lasted a few washes but I'm not surprised since I only used like a tablespoon of manic panic.

[@natalieivory]

You are actually adorable! I love how this turned out. Would you ever consider doing this more permanently?

[@MeganJoyBlog]

+Ivory Avenue I don't know, keeping up with the platinum was so hard. I had to go to the salon every 4 weeks and it was pretty uncomfortable having bleach on my scalp :( I wish my natural hair wasn't so dark otherwise I would have kept this for much longer!

[@lilaislovely]

The colour looks amazing against your skin tone! I love it!

[@MeganJoyBlog]

I appreciate that! Thanks for watching!

[@lilaislovely]

You are welcome!

[@spiffykerms]

Well, you KNOW I love the hairdo Megan! I love anything you do buddy! Good God you're some beauty with that hair! You truly can pull off any colour pal! Frig sakes, it looks SO good. And this video was SOO well done. Like, bright and everything. LOL BUFFSTER CRYING!!! P.s. How do you do a voice over? Do you record your voice on video, and then mute the video audio for the first part? Like this video is profesh man.... voice overs and close ups of the products. Hoo wee!

[@MeganJoyBlog]

spiffykerms Haha I record the video normally and then mute the sound while editing. I have a little mic so I plug that into my computer and record the voice over with that! Oh man what a little sucky baby Buffy is. She was crying for me when I had her out in the hall and then she was crying when I let her in too lol I love the lavender, but it only lasted one wash. Two washes and it was completely gone. It's a fun temporary thing to do though :)

[@amyf57]

It turned out great Megan! I love it! :)

[@MeganJoyBlog]

Amy Lyne Thanks Amy, I'm kind of impressed that I didn't totally mess it up lol

[@sunnivaolsen4654]

this is the exact color i want!!! looks amazing!

[@MeganJoyBlog]

+Sunniva Olsen Thank you! It look a long time to get the blonde the right shade, but once I did it was easy to get it to this lavender shade. Good luck! xo

[@agirlnamedhunter]

good thing I watched the entire video because I had no idea about mixing the dye with conditioner! How long did this last?

[@MeganJoyBlog]

Because I only used about a teaspoon of dye it only lasted 2 washes. But I still had fun with it!

[@agirlnamedhunter]

Megan Joy Thats what I'm looking for!! (little scared of the commitment) hehe

[@MeganJoyBlog]

Hunter I can't wait to see how it looks. You are going to ROCK that lavender hair :)

[@antonia7281]

How long did this end up lasting?

[@MeganJoyBlog]

Not very long as it's a temporary colour. I'd say it lasted about 3 washes.

[@googiekali11]

Megan Joy Did it fade back to your blonde or is there still a tint of purple?

[@boddahveryape]

Kali Hammaker I don’t know about blondes but my natural hair is a medium/light brown with natural highlights and it lasted a week with two washes and it went back to my natural hair color. I assume it would do the same for blondes but not sure.

[@kjosieberto]

I am going to try this. it looks amazing

[@MeganJoyBlog]

I hope it works out for you :) Thanks for watching!

[@the_voice_of_reason]

Best outcome I’ve seen. Well done!!

[@dianakarenvelez9812]

Looks awesome, what has it washed out to?

[@MeganJoyBlog]

Diana Velez it washed out to almost a silver colour. I liked it!

[@kajagrcar3380]

it looks amazing. I have a question. I want this colour, but my hair are sand blond, do I need to be bleached for this result or its cool?

[@kandisswilliams2719]

You mean sandy blonde? If so then yes. Do a bleach bath, it's when you mix equal parts bleach, developer, and shampoo. Then afterwards tone it with wella t14 or t18.

[@MeganJoyBlog]

+Cam Cam Totally agree, you should lift the colour first. Manic Panic also has a product for this to use before applying the colours. I believe it's called the Flash Lightning Bleach Kit.

[@turtlemurtlek]

Did it completely wash out of your hair without leaving a hue?

[@FinasteAhlberg]

omg this looks soooo good on you!

[@MeganJoyBlog]

finaste ahlberg Thank you!

[@lisanne2359]

i love the color.

[@MeganJoyBlog]

Thank you! My hair is darker now and I miss this lavender colour!

[@sparklingsn]

How long did it last? Is there a manic panic permanent hair color?

[@MeganJoyBlog]

+Ley Williams As far as I know Manic Panic is always semi-permanent but you could definitely find a lavender hair colour thats permanent. Maybe at your local beauty supply?

[@caitmarie8746]

When the color washed out was your hair back to the blonde it was originally or did it have a tint to it? I've heard people say that once the lilac washed out they were left with a gray tint to their hair

[@MeganJoyBlog]

That's true, my hair did have a slightly grey tint to it but was gone after a few more washes. I repeated the process once a week :)

[@kakaisan8727]

where can i get that manic panic i couldn't find it in my country, btw your hair color look amazing i love it!!

[@MeganJoyBlog]

Thank you for watching!

[@SilverLinings72]

I like it! I'd be happy with this color 💜

[@barbrichardson3816]

Is this a temporary color ..a wash out

[@ashleyverhoef5876]

Did it fade fast and dated fade to blonde again?

[@lithium2196]

Hello! May I ask how this color washed out? I had a light blonde like you too but the Ultra Violet washed out pretty blueish/green :( I can't get the green undertone out of my hair even with bleaching.. Do you have any tips maybe? Your hair looks so gorgeus btw

[@KatalinaLaughs]

did you dilute MP ultra violet? i heard purple haze fades to a pinkish undertone. i was planning to dye my ombre hair with ultra violet and was hoping it would fade my platinum blonde tips to a grayish blonde. but green?! :( oh no

[@MeganJoyBlog]

+Aki Murakami I'm sorry you didn't have very good luck with the Ultra Violet! I used a purple toner shampoo on my hair the day before, maybe that helped to prevent the green-ish colour?

[@MeganJoyBlog]

+KatalinaLaughs I definitely diluted the Manic Panic with conditioner, it would have been too bright for what I wanted. I hope you were able to get the ombre look you were trying for!

[@abpollita]

.

[@emilymackenzie5601]

This is gorgeous!!!

[@indiracamdzic7563]

When you washed it out, did you shampoo and condition it again? Because I feel like if you just wash it out like that it would've felt greasy from the conditioner.

[@MeganJoyBlog]

Indira Camdzic I actually didn’t shampoo it. I just made sure to rinse my hair really thoroughly to get all of the conditioner out. Thanks for watching!

[@agirlnamedhunter]

I am SO doing this to my hair!

[@MeganJoyBlog]

You would look amazing with purple hair Hunter :) xo

[@ImagineNew]

If I already have dye on my hair can I use the manic panic pastel-izer on it?

[@MeganJoyBlog]

I'm not sure, my hair was very light already so it worked for me. Is your hair is darker the colour would likely not show up. Thanks so much for watching!

[@amandatran4207]

all you have to do is fade it off

[@87PageS]

I absolutely love it Megan!!!

[@MeganJoyBlog]

87PageS Thank you! I want to try cotton candy pink next :)

[@87PageS]

oooh I'm excited!

[@megsterchick5]

To those asking if it leave a weird tint. I have blonde hair and have used manic panic in the past, (vampire red and blue) it always fades! And my hair goes back to Normal

[@BlessedKarma10]

Looks pretty. Thinking if doing the same😊

[@tulipomweneshilumbu4552]

I'll try it ou.. i love the way it turned out

[@MistyEry]

Wow. That's gorgeous!

[@thehiltongirl]

Like it, it really suits you.

[@MeganJoyBlog]

Thanks very much!

[@Alla_india]

How long its was lasts?

[@fooledtook]

Love love love this! Wish I had lighter hair so I could do this easier ;) If you do this again try putting the dye on your roots first so that it can do its magic there - that's what most box dyes say, anyway. :)

[@MeganJoyBlog]

***** I did it again last night and tried that and it worked better! Thanks :)

[@smithygirl2468]

how many milliliters was in the bottle of conditioner?

[@MeganJoyBlog]

+IrishJillian Thanks for watching! I'm not 100% sure how many milliliters but I believe that conditioner only comes in one size.

[@smithygirl2468]

+Megan Joy okay! Thanks for the reply!!

[@melleenguyen]

How long did it end up lasting?? :o

[@MeganJoyBlog]

Only a few washes, about 3 for me. Some people find it lasts longer, it really just depends on the persons hair. Thanks for watching!

[@barbershop661]

Megan Joy

[@samanthavr3590]

does semi-permanent hair dye permanently tint the hair? does it fully go away?

[@MeganJoyBlog]

In my experience it fully washed out. It didn’t leave any weird colour behind and my hair went back to the blonde I had before :)

[@chrystamoretti2537]

did you wash and dry your hair that morning right before you dyed your hair?

[@MeganJoyBlog]

Chrysta Moretti yes! I had just washed my hair. Thanks so much for watching!

[@lorirenee4567]

I loved how it looked so nice on you. might try it on me also. Great video!❤♥💖😀😇

[@MariaMedeiros]

i love love it!! omg I want to make my hair pink! :D Love how it looks! beautiful! would love to know how long it lasts. :D

[@MeganJoyBlog]

***** For me it only lasted a few washes :(

[@leviegutierrez8761]

what is the product you use

[@MeganJoyBlog]

+Levie Gutierrez I used Manic Panic in Ultra Violet. The list of products used is in the description box as well! Thanks for watching!

[@daisydude92]

Looks very cool 😊

[@MeganJoyBlog]

Daisy Ford Thanks Daisy! I like how it turned out. I want to try other colours now :)

[@ellatasker-smith2945]

Do you kno if there is a darker purple made by manic panic!

[@caitiekitty]

Ella Bella yes. she used a dark purple but she lighten it up

[@elizabethrhiannon2924]

Ella Tasker-Smith if you do this without the conditioner it will be darker

[@jaselrico3475]

Very pretty!!

[@MeganJoyBlog]

+Jasel Rico Thanks so much for watching!

[@brennawhite8866]

i'm thinking about doing this thanks for the video!

[@MeganJoyBlog]

brenna white thank you for watching! I hope you found it helpful. Be sure to let me know how it turns out if you try it!

[@arleenmunox9086]

can I do this even if I have dark hair?

[@jaydenlexy7946]

Arleen Munox nope. You have to bleach several times and tone first. You can also use this dye to tone as well.

[@LauraHerchel]

I absolutely love it!!

[@MeganJoyBlog]

Laura Herchel Thanks Laura! I've been wanting to do it for years so I finally decided to just go for it!

[@Torontoista]

looks great

[@MeganJoyBlog]

Torontoista Thank you, and thanks for watching! xo

[@adriramirez54]

What does the conditioner do?

[@elizabethrhiannon2924]

Adriana Ramirez it makes the purple lighter so that your hair doesn’t come out bright purple as it would without, and also moisturizes your hair as well

[@melissaturner2870]

I love it!! ❤

[@bethclark5628]

super cute

[@KaylieMayo]

Looks good!

[@MeganJoyBlog]

Thank you Kaylie! It was my first time trying so it wasn't perfect but thankfully it came out ok ):

[@jemmabayliss9961]

Manic panic is a vegan dye so you can leave it on for as long as you want!

[@fizzfizzbang]

You can leave it on for as long as you want but not because it's a vegan dye. It's because it's deposit only and does not have a developer in it. :D

[@bullsanchez8401]

how can it stay ? anyone

[@MeganJoyBlog]

It doesn't last long, maybe 3-4 washes.

[@forgivness]

Amazing 😊💚

[@natashazurk7140]

Best color ever 😘😍❤️

[@Treytinoxo]

I do really like this colour and all but i do want to point out as someone who has had there hair turn this colour this will not last for more than a week, just add some purple to conditioner and it will last much longer tho ;P

[@MeganJoyBlog]

+Treytlol So true. It barely lasted 3 washes! Luckily it's pretty fast to do so I just re-applied once a week.

[@farahtatsugaming3776]

I saw the Ultra violet online and it seemed veery dark.. there was a light lilac colour called virgin snow. Are you sure you used ultra violet? I dont want it to turn dark purple lol

[@MeganJoyBlog]

Farah Tatsu Hi Farah! It was definitely ultraviolet, the reason I was able to get it a pastel colour was by mixing it with a lot of conditioner first. It dilutes the purple and makes it more of a lilac shade. Thanks for watching!

[@farahtatsugaming3776]

Megan Joy Thankyouu ❤

[@MsEvianna]

is your hair thin

[@MeganJoyBlog]

Yes, I have thin hair. Thanks for watching!

[@MsEvianna]

+Megan Joy no problem! thanks so much!! xoxo

[@LindsayXo]

Gorgeous! 🙌😍

[@MeganJoyBlog]

Thanks a lot Lindsay! xo

[@Diary0fher]

Love it!!

[@MeganJoyBlog]

Mindy Klein Thanks Mindy! I only wish it lasted longer :(

[@Diary0fher]

For real. I have blue hair and it is the same way. Had it for three months now I'm giving up and going a different color. Too much up keep girl i have kids! lol

[@MarloesBerends]

So weird... When I did this I went baby blue... 😮 and I have the same color blonde as you...

[@MeganJoyBlog]

+Marloes Berends I've heard that a few times from people. I think it's because I let it dry on my hair and didn't shampoo until the next day. These store-bought products are a bit temperamental sometimes. Thanks for watching!

[@gracieelizabeth1214]

ultra violet is a blue based product so if you have red undertones it will do that. try purple haze next time.

[@Kyndra1997]

I'm doing this tonight! I have all the stuff.

[@MeganJoyBlog]

Yay! I hope it turned out well for you! xo

[@umaru3972]

Im so doing this! Thank youuuu

[@MeganJoyBlog]

+Nettis Dahlqvist Let me know how it works for you! :)

[@drumspirit6395]

Cover your clothes! Looks great!

[@spikexskittlesanimatronic581]

god i feel so dumb i been trying to figure out how to fade my hair color like that i have manic panic ultra violet but never new how to fade it but its to late for me to cause i used it all up this morning XD but if there is a way to fade it even when its already applied can someone please let me know?

[@makeupbymakenzie3943]

Try using a dandruff shampoo or a more harsh shampoo, people do that when they want to take the color out but it usually takes more than one wash, so try just doing it once and see if that fades it quicker, or just wash it with a regular shampoo a few times.

[@spikexskittlesanimatronic581]

thankyou :)

[@MeganJoyBlog]

+SpikexSkittles Animatronic I agree, using a clarifying shampoo helps strip the colour faster for sure. Thanks for watching!

[@spikexskittlesanimatronic581]

your welcome and what type works the best?
