MANIC PANIC Amplified Flashlightning Hair Lightening Kit Pack of 2 — 40 Volume Cream Developer, High-Lift Powder & Tools

MANIC PANIC Amplified Flashlightning is a professional-strength hair lightening kit with 40 volume cream developer designed to lift hair up to seven levels for vivid colors and dramatic blondes.

This pack of two kits contains everything needed for at-home or backstage bleaching sessions: high-lift bleaching powder, 40 volume cream developer, gloves, mixing bowl, tint brush, and a plastic cap. Formulated to work on dark brown and black hair, the system aims to deliver even lift and prepare hair for bold semi-permanent or pastel shades. The dust-free powder reduces airborne mess, while the vegan, cruelty-free formula avoids ammonia, PPD, gluten, and phthalates.

How much lift can I expect with this 40 volume developer kit?

Using the 40 volume cream developer with the included bleaching powder provides significant lift—commonly up to seven levels—depending on your starting color and hair condition. Results vary by hair porosity, previous chemical history, and processing time; always follow instructions and perform strand tests.

• Up to seven levels of lift on virgin dark brown or black hair under ideal conditions
• 40 volume developer accelerates processing for maximum lightening
• Dust-free powder promotes consistent, even lift
• Strand test recommended to estimate final tone and timing

Is this kit safe to use at home and what comes in the pack?

The kit is prepared for DIY use and includes essential application tools so you can bleach at home, but always read and follow safety directions. It contains a measured bleaching powder, 40 vol cream developer, disposable gloves, a mixing tub, tint brush for precise application, and a plastic cap for processing.

• Complete kit: powder, developer, gloves, tub, brush, and cap
• Clear instructions and recommended timing provided with the product
• Protective gloves minimize skin contact during mixing and application
• Cap helps heat retention for consistent processing

How should I prepare my hair and aftercare my lightened hair?

Prepare by ensuring hair is healthy: avoid bleaching immediately after harsh chemical treatments or if hair is severely damaged. After lightening, use gentle, protein-rich conditioners and color-safe toners to neutralize unwanted warmth and maintain brightness.

• Perform a strand test to assess timing and lift level
• Avoid overlapping on already-processed hair to reduce breakage risk
• Use sulfate-free shampoos and strengthening masks post-bleach
• Consider toning solutions to adjust yellow or brassy undertones
