This “fire engine red” looks great on everyone and can leave brilliant red tones on virgin, unbleached hair! For best results, we recommend lightening hair to a light level 8 blonde before use Applying Manic Panic hair color to pre-lightened hair is the best way to assure that you will achieve the vibrant results that you see on our color swatches. Lightening with our Flash Lightning Kits to a pale blonde (level 9-10) will give the most intense results. We offer 3 bleach kits that will lighten your hair: BLUE LIGHTNING 30 VOL, FLASH LIGHTNING 30 VOL, AND FLASH LIGHTNING AMPLIFIED 40 VOL. BLUE LIGHTNING helps remove any unwanted brassiness in the hair, FLASH LIGHTNING AMPLIFIED 40 Vol is our super strength bleach kit, more powerful than the FLASH LIGHTNING 30 vol. All bleach kits will help you lighten your hair according to the instructions in the package. Blend our Mixer/Pastel-izer with any color to achieve a lighter, pastel tint that is totally on-trend. Combine any formula with the Mixer/Pastel-izer to create soft, on-trend pastel hues. This product works best when you use a whole jar of Pastel-izer with just a few drops of your desired color. A semi-permanent direct dye hair color does not contain any harmful chemicals and relies on natural vegan dyes that mostly sit on top of the hair. 1. Wash hair with a deep cleansing/clarifying shampoo. Do not condition. 2. Dry hair with a blow dryer to make sure the hair is extremely porous. 3. Put on gloves and apply Manic Panic Hair Color using a tint brush making sure hair is thoroughly saturated. 4. Comb through the hair color to make sure it is evenly applied. The cream may become slightly frothy. 5. Cover hair with a plastic cap and leave on for 30-45 minutes. For more intensity, add heat. 6. Rinse with cool water away from your face and body until water runs clear. Do not shampoo. 7. Style as desired. To prevent color transfer or bleeding, always make sure your hair is completely dry. Pro Tip: Use a hair dryer to evenly apply heat for 5-10 minutes of your processing time. This will help to open up the cuticle and allow the Manic Panic hair color to better penetrate the hair strand. Make sure to allow the hair to cool completely before rinsing out color. ## Features - Pillarbox Red Hair Color; Our Signature True Red Hair Dye That Looks Great On Everyone; Can Leave Brilliant Red Tones On Virgin Unbleached Hair; For Best Results We Recommend Lightening Hair To A Light Level Eight Blonde Before Use - Three Times The Pigment And Lasts Thirty Percent Longer Than The Classic High Voltage Line; Each Application Lasts Six To Eight Weeks; Ready To Use; No Developer Required - Mixable Colors And Tones; All MANIC PANIC Hair Colors Are Safe To Mix To Create Custom Shades Making The Possibilities Of Shades Endless; Combine Any Formula With The Pastelizer To Create Soft On Trend Pastel Hues - Cruelty Free Vegan Formula; This Color Cream Hair Dye Features Vegan Ingredients Tested On Celebrities Not Animals; Made In The USA; Hair Color Is PPD And Ammonia Free; Paraben Free; Gluten Free; Resorcinol Free; Phthalate Free And PETA Accredited - For Best Results; Vibrant Color Results Are Best Achieved By Applying To Hair That Has Been Pre Lightened With MANIC PANIC Flash Lightning Bleach Kits; Bleaching Thoroughly To A Level Nine Or Ten Before Dyeing Is Recommended For The Best Results ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Asin | B01IRY9J5M | | Best Sellers Rank | #164 in Hair Color | | Is Discontinued By Manufacturer | No | | Item Model Number | ACR 71020-2pk | | Manufacturer | MANIC PANIC | | Package Dimensions | 4.96 x 3.31 x 1.57 inches; 1 Pounds | | Upc | 638302437233 | ## Product Details - **Brand:** MANIC PANIC - **Color:** Pillarbox Red - **Item Form:** Cream - **Package Information:** Bottle - **Product Benefits:** Hair Coloring ## Images ![MANIC PANIC Pillarbox Red Amplified Semi-Permanent Hair Dye - Deep True Red Shade - Works on Dark & Light Shades - Vegan, PPD & Ammonia Free (2 Pack) - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71jhv129EBL.jpg) ![MANIC PANIC Pillarbox Red Amplified Semi-Permanent Hair Dye - Deep True Red Shade - Works on Dark & Light Shades - Vegan, PPD & Ammonia Free (2 Pack) - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71wHXjd4+-L.jpg) ![MANIC PANIC Pillarbox Red Amplified Semi-Permanent Hair Dye - Deep True Red Shade - Works on Dark & Light Shades - Vegan, PPD & Ammonia Free (2 Pack) - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51ORd1fZ2eL.jpg) ![MANIC PANIC Pillarbox Red Amplified Semi-Permanent Hair Dye - Deep True Red Shade - Works on Dark & Light Shades - Vegan, PPD & Ammonia Free (2 Pack) - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71-IuqxIr1L.jpg) ![MANIC PANIC Pillarbox Red Amplified Semi-Permanent Hair Dye - Deep True Red Shade - Works on Dark & Light Shades - Vegan, PPD & Ammonia Free (2 Pack) - Image 5](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81CWEbDxffL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Color, Size** options. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Vibrant, look up how to wash hair prior to adding dye, don't forget the heat!! *by on Reviewed in the United States June 10, 2026* Survived the first wash on Virgin hair!!!!! Still nice and vibrant!!!! We have tried the classic line and one other brand for my son. Nothing had worked but this high voltage is nailing it! Going to look for my color in this line. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Worked surprisingly well on unbleached/undyed medium brown hair *by on Reviewed in the United States November 3, 2017* I used this product on my daughter's medium brown, unbleached/undyed hair. Most hair color charts place her natural hair color as a level 5. She really wanted her hair to be the same magenta/fuschia color as the character she wanted to be for Halloween (Mal from Disney's Descendants 2, hair is more pink in this movie, where it was purple in the first).I did quite a bit of research first, and chose this based on reviews and photos from other customers. The Manic Panic website also recommended the Hot Hot Pink (and a few others) for unbleached hair as opposed to other colors, so I would stay with their recommendations. I was worried that the color wouldn't show up at all in her hair, and she hates the spray on hair color (which may wash out, but is full of aerosolized chemicals, and I don't like my kids inhaling that stuff). This item had no chemical smell at all.My daughter's hair is typically more towards the oily side (as much as it can be for an 8 year old, for an adult, it would be considered neither oily nor dry). However, she spent a considerable amount of time in the pool this summer, which did dry out the length of her hair somewhat. This may have allowed the dye to penetrate better, despite this being months ago. The dye did seem to adhere just as well to the roots.I rinsed her hair with diluted apple cider vinegar first, while it was still dry, and rinsed well. Then I blow-dried it completely. After thoroughly coating her hair with it, I blow-dried her hair again for about five minutes, put it in a plastic cap, and left it on for a little over 2 hours. I put a towel over the cap as well to keep in heat, and blow-dried it again for another five minutes before rinsing. I had no issues with rinsing it in the shower... it did not turn her back pink while rinsing. I used vaseline around her hairline and had no problems with staining. Since then, there has been the usual issues of staining of pillow cases (and also her forehead, which has acquired a pink tint in the past few days because she has bangs. Nothing worse than expected. The color is still the same a week later (which surprises me, I now wonder if she'll have pinkish hair at Christmas, because I expected at least a little fading within days).When her hair was first rinsed, I worried at first that the color didn't take. But when I started drying it, I was astonished. Because her hair was darker, the hot hot pink color showed up almost the exact same fuschia color as the character's. My daughter was thrilled, and while the process probably took about 3 hours plus, I didn't have to spray her hair full of noxious smelling spray, which I'd have had to wash out on Halloween night when we were both exhausted, and she is just beside herself. Her school has no dress code issues with hair colors, so I don't have to worry about that being an issue. It's incredible that this showed up with her hair being darker. I would buy this product again. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Vampire red over old semi-perm blue, no bleach! *by on Reviewed in the United States October 14, 2025* For some unknown reason, I thought it would be fun to dye my hair two shades of blue for the Fourth of July trip we were planning to take to South Padre. As you can expect it did not go well and I could not get rid of it!!! Color oops would not work, and I tried clarifying shampoo after clarifying shampoo. I didn’t want to put bleach in it so I thought thought well. I will just try to go over it with red since that is the color I typically dye my hair anyway. To my surprise, it colored the ugly blue, although it did make a bit of an ombré as it got darker toward the middle and end, so it almost looks black. Nonetheless I’m glad it is not blue so I am perfectly fine with it. No bleach, just 2 bottles of straight vampire red. I did cover it with two Walmart bags while it processed and fell asleep in it. Nothing happened. It actually seemed to make it softer. I will say that this was a month ago and it is still bleeding red to this day in my shower, so keep that in mind! Lol I don’t care because I am so glad it is no longer blue!!!! I hope my review was able to help you make your decision, have a great day!!! ## Frequently Bought Together - MANIC PANIC Pillarbox Red - Amplified Semi Permanent Hair Dye - Deep True Red - Vegan, PPD & Ammonia-Free - For Dark & Light Hair - 2PK (8ml Each) - Lasts 6-8 Weeks - Manic Panic Amplified Flash Lightning Complete Maximum Hair Lightening Hair Kit Cream Developer Volume 40 - Manic Panic - Hot Pink Classic Creme Vegan Cruelty Free Semi Permanent Hair Dye 118ml --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.gr/products/35658337-manic-panic-pillarbox-red-amplified-semi-permanent-hair-dye-deep](https://www.desertcart.gr/products/35658337-manic-panic-pillarbox-red-amplified-semi-permanent-hair-dye-deep) --- *Product available on Desertcart Greece* *Store origin: GR* *Last updated: 2026-07-09*
