The UV Shades
Hot Hot Pink
One of Manic Panic’s most iconic shades, Hot Hot Pink, is a bright, electrifying pink that glows under black light. This shade is perfect for anyone looking to make a bold statement day and night. The UV-reactive feature ensures you’re the centre of attention at any rave or club. You’ll also find Hot Hot Pink in the 8oz High Voltage range!
Due to the highly pigmented tone of these shades, Hot Hot Pink can produce noticeable results on various base colours. If you want to achieve that vibrant hot pink hair result that this tone is well-known for, we suggest applying it to a pre-lightened level 8-10 base. Alternatively, Hot Hot Pink can be applied to darker base levels from levels 6-8 in which the result will appear more subtle and particularly noticeable in certain lights.
Cotton Candy Pink
For those who prefer a softer, pastel look, Cotton Candy Pink is the perfect choice and if you love it that much, you can double up with the Cotton Candy Pink 8oz High Voltage pot! This dreamy, light pink shade also glows under UV light, giving a whimsical, glowing effect. It’s ideal for creating a fun, fairy-tale aesthetic!
Cotton Candy Pink is one of the much lighter tones within our collection of pink shades and because of this, it requires a very light blonde base to produce a vibrant and noticeable result. We recommend applying Cotton Candy Pink hair dye to a base level 10; the hair should also be toned after pre-lightening to help remove any unwanted yellow tones that may produce an unwanted result once the dye has been applied and rinsed.
Pretty Flamingo
A delicate pink shade that also holds tones of orange to create a peachy finish, Pretty Flamingo hair dye is another UV-reactive shade that offers a subtle yet eye-catching colour. With tones of orange, this shade works well for those who want a more understated pink that still pops in the right lighting.
Similar to Cotton Candy Pink, Manic Panic Pretty Flamingo is a very light pink hue and won’t perform well on a base that is too dark. To make the most of this shade the hair should be pre-lightened to a level 10 blonde base and toned to remove any unwanted hues throughout.
The Manic Panic UV hair dye shades are particularly unique and create awesome results! If you are particularly keen to trial this UV effect, the hair must be pre-lightened to a level 10 very light blonde base before applying the dye; the darker the hair is before application, the less likely the UV component will execute well.
The Latest Drops
We have recently dropped three new pink tones as a part of the 118ml High Voltage Classic Colour range. Each of these shades is unique to each other, offering bold and vibrant results for a selection of different tonal preferences.
Pussycat Pink
One of the newest additions to the Manic Panic UK family, Pussycat Pink is a bold and vibrant shade that’s already gaining popularity. Its rich, electric pink hue is perfect for those who love a striking and explosive colour. Not only is Pussycat Pink a fierce and fabulous shade that illuminates highlighter pink hues throughout the day, but it is also one of our UV hair dye options giving it a little something extra for you to surprise your friends with at your next rave!
Although Pussycat Pink is an extremely vibrant tone, we recommend applying this colour to a level 10 base to make those electric notes pop! Applied to this base colour, you’ll be giving that UV feature its best chance at shining vibrantly under specialised black light as well as providing striking results during the day.
Pink Warrior
Pink Warrior, iconically known to be exclusive to our Professional Colour range, has now joined our Classic Colour range for all to enjoy! The strength of this colour produces a perfectly pink tone that comes to the minds of many whenever pink is mentioned. The rich tones of the Pink Warrior hair dye are undeniably vibrant and outstanding not only during the day but under UV black light too thanks to the exciting UV feature included in this formula. This new release is perfect for anyone looking to embrace a powerful new colour.
If Pink Warrior sounds like it could be your vibe, we recommend applying it to a pre-lightened base level 8-10, however, its highly pigmented tone can produce a subtle hue to darker tones from a level 6.
Divine Wine
If you are looking for a deeper pink tone to get your pink kicks, you’ll love our final new pink tone to mention; Divine Wine. A more subdued pink with wine-red undertones, this shade creates a warm berry-like result that is particularly popular in today’s hair world. If pink is definitely on the cards, but a more humble and refined approach is your vibe then check this colour out!
Due to its deeper pigment, Divine Wine hair dye is a versatile shade that can be applied to a wider range of base colours. On those lighter pre-lightened hair levels, Divine Wine will show off its pink tones much more noticeably, whereas, on a dark hair level, those sweet red undertones will become more dominant and create a warm wine-like result.

Don’t Forget…
Cleo Rose
Cleo Rose offers a unique blend of pink with subtle rose undertones, providing a beautiful vibrant pink tone with a plum-like result. Its vivid appearance is both vivid and classic, creating an eye-catching result for all who are looking for confidence and sophistication from their new hair colour.
The vibrant hue of Cleo Rose exudes a creative finish that blends seamlessly on a level 8-10 base. Its generous pigment can be applied to a darker base to produce a subtle tint to the hair but we wouldn’t recommend applying any darker than a level 6.
Fuschia Shock
As the name suggests, Fuschia Shock is a shocking, vibrant fuchsia that demands attention. This shade is ideal for anyone looking to make a bold and unmissable statement. It is a deep pink shade with a purple undertone providing enchanting fuchsia results on pre-lightened hair. This shade fits a range of aesthetic types and is a truly chic way of adding a pop of colour to your everyday look!
Make your Fuschia Shock debut count by applying your dye to a pre-lightened level 8-10 base. The warmth of this shade is none other than perfection on light blonde hair, however, thanks to its highly pigmented formula Manic Panic Fuschia Shock on light brown hair works wonders and creates a plum-like result!
The Amplified Pinks
For those who want their pink hair to last even longer, you’ll find a couple of our pink shades in the Amplified Formula range. This long-lasting formula type ensures that your vibrant colour stays fresh for 6-8 weeks or more. Available in this range are Hot Hot Pink and Cotton Candy Pink, providing options between darker and lighter tones perfect for anyone who loves their pink and wants it to stay vibrant for an extended period. Designed to create long-lasting colour results, the Manic Panic Amplified Formula range has been created using 30% more pigment than our dyes in the High Voltage Classic Colour range.
