Here are some of our favourite applications from the Manic Panic ambassadors and affiliates that we think would make great New Year’s Eve hairstyles.
This December, we worked with @artbeautychaos to create an alternative hairstyle using the Manic Panic colours that would look great for a Christmas party, a New Year’s Eve party, or to match an alt aesthetic. Using a combination of colours, Keziah created a stand-out result that we were blown away by! Using Virgin Snow to tone her bleached roots, Venus Envy, Vampire Red, and Raven were then used to create the perfect punk rock hairstyle that also features a classic festive colour palette. You can head straight over to Keziah’s Instagram or TikTok page to see how the Manic Panic colours were applied to create this holiday hair; you will also find a quick tutorial demonstrating how to transform your finished result into unique party hair.
If you’re currently rocking a shorter length, this could be a great option for you. Keziah has styled her alternative short hair by creating curls all around her head using straighteners. After this, the Manic Panic Stardust Glitter Hairspray is then applied; the perfect finishing touch for the festive season! To complete this style, Keziah then creates messy spacebuns on either side of her head whilst leaving small sections out of the hair band. Once you have your hair up and in the right position, accessorise as you wish with clips, bows, and more!
Manic Panic UK ambassador, Emma Pullen, has been busy getting creative during the festive build-up with many different colours and styles to play with. From icy tones to rich festive colours, Emma’s Instagram feed is any rainbow fanatic's dream! If you’re on the hunt for a New Year’s Eve hairstyle that allows you to start as you mean to go on, you need to check these out. If you’re already a cool-toned blonde, why not try a frost platinum and blue balayage? In this look, Emma has used Virgin Snow to create creamy white blonde roots, whilst the mids and ends are created using Blue Angel, Atomic Turquoise, and Rockabilly Blue.
Alternatively, if you prefer warmth in your hair, this perfectly themed hairstyle features two custom tones that give Christmas without trying. Green and red are well-known for their popularity over the festive season, often representing elements such as holly and berries that we often see during this time of year. To create this emerald green tone, Emma has mixed Venus Envy, Sea Goddess, and Raven; the ribbons of red throughout have been coloured using a custom mix of Vampire Red and Pillarbox!
With these styles to consider for your next look, what are your ’new year, new hair’ plans?
