In high school and college, I was all about having fun, vibrant, expressive hair—pink, green, blue, yellow… you name it, I’ve had it! In the past year, I’ve finally tapped back into my colorful roots. A month before our little moose was born, I woke up one morning thinking, “I need pink hair, and I need it now!” Since then, I’ve gone back and forth between pink, pinkish-red and purple. I’m almost positive I’m gonna be one of those grannies with [intentionally] blue hair one day. 
While I’m partial to a couple of punky color brands (feel free to comment or msg me for more deets), I’m beyond stoked to know that all the brands listed below are vegan and cruelty-free! Some of them even smell like candy!
Just a couple of notes: All of these dyes are semi-permanent and will fade with each wash. I also highly recommend bleaching your hair before using these dyes for a brighter, more intense outcome.
Ladies and germies, without further ado, I present the following awesome, kick-ass, colorful cruelty-free hair dyes:
- Jerome Russell Punky Colour
- Manic Panic
- Splat
- Special Effects
- Paul Mitchell Ink Works
- Hot Topic Raw Color

You wouldn’t happen to know how to get a seafoam-y/mint green color would you? I can’t find anything like it.
You are rocking that purple, girl!! I’m a bit more conservative and just need a good old fashioned blonde color, but I’m not sure where to start. Any brand suggestions for traditional hair colors that are cruelty free?
Thanks, Chez!
I recommend Herbatint for natural color (vegan and waaaaaaay less toxic than conventional hair dyes).

You might have better luck online than in stores – that’s where I buy all of my hair dye.
