Manic Panic Shocking Blue Semi-Permanent hair color cream

Manic Panic is a legendary name in the world of alternative beauty, famously established in 1977 by sisters Tish and Snooky Bellomo. The brand originated in New York City, opening the first boutique of its kind in the United States, which helped pioneer the punk rock aesthetic. Since its inception, Manic Panic has remained a family-owned business, maintaining its headquarters in Long Island City, New York.

The products are primarily manufactured in the United States, ensuring adherence to the brand's long-standing commitment to vegan and cruelty-free formulations, as evidenced by their PETA certification. Over the decades, the company has expanded globally, with its hair dyes becoming a staple in professional salons and retail markets worldwide. To this day, the ultimate ownership remains with Tish & Snooky's NYC Inc., making it one of the most successful independent female-owned brands in the cosmetics industry.
