NY Times Fashion & Style report: ‘Shock Locks’ Leave Punk Behind

July 21, 2011 New York Times Fashion and Style presents a full page report on colored hair, featuring MANIC PANIC!
The article states that colored hair has found its way into the main stream, that it's not just for punks anymore. It is lovely to read how people from all walks of life are expressing themselves through their (MANIC PANIC) hair color.
Celebrity hair stylists say their customers are influenced by performers like "Nicki Minaj, Hayley Williams and Katy Perry, all of whom have gone bright in one fashion or another." Also reported is a trend of streaking and tipping with MANIC PANIC hair color.

Pink is for boys!

 

Presenting clothing designer Chris Benz, the "new face of American fashion." His coiffure is as important to him as haute couture. He is famous for his neon MANIC PANIC® hair colors.

On the subject of his hair color, Chris told New York Magazine: "I don't have any tattoos and I don't have any piercings either, I feel like it's not permanent, so I can change it again and again".

From his bio we learn that he once interned with Marc Jacobs, another MANIC PANIC® celebrity dyehard, well-known for sporting purple,green, blue hair "back in the day". (Perhaps Marc Jacobs educated Chris in the ways of MANIC PANIC®?)

Chris currently has a full head of Cotton Candy™ Pink and has been appearing all over the internet talking about his hair.

Lady in Blue - Atomic Turquoise!

 
More stunning work from the CUT Team in Serbia! The Creative Urban Team uses MANIC PANIC Hair Color and cosmetics to create these incredible styles. They write us: 

The hair was bleached with AMPLIFIED FLASHLIGHTNING. After washing out the bleach, hair was divided into several sections, and hair dye was applied on each section. Shishalica used 3 bottles of classic cream formula Atomic Turquoise. After leaving it on hair for 30 minutes dye was rinsed and than another 3 bottles of AMPLIFIED Turquoise mixed with very little AMPLIFIED Shocking Blue were applied on hair. After 30 minutes dye was rinsed. Dye had to be applied twice for achieving color intensity and vibrance. Extensions applied on hair were also dyed with same process. After dyeing hair was cut and styled, and there were several hairstylings for this photo shoot created by Milica Shishalica and Marijana Gligic photographer.
