Tish and Snooky’s® Manic Panic® NYC was born on 7/7/77. Few of the people who ignited the late ’70s punk scene, including Tish and Snooky, would’ve ever dreamt of its acceptance by the mainstream, or Manic Panic®’s evolution into the internationally renowned hair color and cosmetics company it is today. NYC natives and sisters Tish and Snooky were backup singers in the original Blondie lineup. In 1977, to add some extra fun to their Rock ‘N’ Roll lifestyle, the two introduced Manic Panic® hair dyes in every color of the rainbow to the USA. This also included matching wild colors for lips, nails, and eyes. By the ’90s, Tish and Snooky watched as their hair dye and cosmetics were worn proudly by fashion models and celebrities. Manic Panic® suddenly appeared in magazines, television, and major motion pictures. Today their products can be found all over the world and the list of celebrity clients has greatly expanded since then including dyehards such as Rihanna, Lady Gaga, Coco Rocha, and many more. Tish and Snooky are lifetime animal rights activists and Manic Panic® continually sponsors many charities. The Manic Panic® line is against animal testing and has won awards from the animal rights organization PETA. It is “Tested On Celebrities, Not Animals”®. The entire Manic Panic® hair color line is Vegan and Paraben-free and the line of Glamnation® Cosmetics is cruelty-free. In between running the Manic Panic® empire and traveling, the sisters still manage to find time to perform, rocking out with a variety of legendary artists. Tish and Snooky, the “Martha Stewarts of Punk Rock,” still
rock the Manic Panic® lifestyle. “We don’t just sell it, we live it!”™.
