4.0 out of 5 stars No more red, July 6, 2010

I picked up this product to bleach the bottom half of my hair a light blonde. I had little hope since I had had my hair bleached professionally before but
to no avail, my hair was a measly a lighter red. (My hair is very thick) The results of the manic panic amazed me. Not only did it lighten my hair drastically but also rid it of the red tone. The only thing I have to say is make sure you do a strand test and spread the bleach evenly! It seems obvious, but I was eager. My hair turned out a little whiter in some places because of that but that's my own fault. I'd also like to add that the product is great for it's price.

I have very dark almost black hair, and flash lightning took it to a nice light blonde color in record time! The only problem I have with the kit is that there wasn't enough stuff in it for my whole head, and I had to go out and buy another kit. If you have short hair, it'd be perfect, but I have long hair so I should've seen it coming :3 other than that, NO complaints what so ever!!

Though I was a bit leery about buying this product it turned out to be worth it. I first ordered my product July 22, 2011. They said the product would be here by July 27, 2011 and it came on the morning of July 24th/25th. Either way, the shipping was extremely fast. When I got it, I opened the box to check if everything was inside, I noticed a lot of people was complaining about not getting gloves but I did in fact get mines. One thing I noticed about this product, the actual bleaching items in the box isn't much. The bleaching powder is like 1.34 oz (38 grams) and the developing cream is like 4 Fl Oz (118 ml) I honestly do believe that their is more developer in the box than bleaching powder. Though I do have some of both left over, (due to me only doing the back of my hair and a side highlight).. I DO NOT recommend you buy this if you are considering doing your whole head unless you plan to get two boxes of the product.

Using the product:
I did use the product on myself.
My hair color is damn near pitch black so I had to leave it in & though I thought leaving it in longer was going to dry my hair out, it didn't! I didn't leave the bleach in long enough so it turned out orange, so I did bleach it a 2nd time in the same day. Still didn't dry my hair out. I didn't want my hair completely blonde so I stopped when it got to like a honey blondish. (: After bleaching, I washed my hair with conditioner let it air dry (cause my hair is curly) and it came out wonderfully. I know some people say that you're supposed to condition your hair a lot more than you would usually do it after you bleach your hair, but I personally don't? I still do my same routine, and my hair still doesn't get dried out or F'd up. (i do not recommend doing what I do though, seeing as all hair types are not the same).

So once again this product is EXCELLENT. And I do recommend it for beginners trying to bleach or Highlight their hair. (:

-Thanks for reading & feel free to ask any questions. :)
