AF Blog — Arctic Mist

Pink is a total vibe, but once you're ready to switch gears, you may be wondering how to do that without using harsh bleach or color removers that could cause further damage to your precious strands. Look no further – your besties at Arctic Fox Hair Color are putting our lab coats on to show you exactly what colors cancel out pink and how to transition out of your pink hair color using the magic of the color wheel!

The Color Wheel: Your Hair Color BFF

Think of the color wheel as your personal hair guru! This rainbow circle isn't just pretty to look at – it's actually the secret weapon for understanding how colors interact with each other. Here's the tea: colors that sit directly opposite each other on the wheel are called "complementary colors," and they literally cancel each other out when mixed.

Pink's sworn enemy? Green! These two are sitting across from each other on the color wheel like that dramatic friend duo we all know. When you apply green-tinted products to pink hair, the green cancels out pink hair, helping you transition to a more neutral base or prep for your next color adventure.

The key to using the color wheel for hair transitions is understanding that you don't always need to go full intensity with the opposite color. Sometimes a diluted version or a gentle toner is all you need to get the job done without going overboard!

What Color Cancels Out Pastel Pink Hair Color

Got that dreamy pastel pink like our gorgeous Frosé shade? Neverland (our pastel green hair color) is your new best friend! This soft, minty green is perfect for gently neutralizing those cotton candy vibes without being too harsh on your hair.

Since pastel pink is already on the lighter side, you won't need anything super intense. Neverland works like a charm to tone down those rosy hues and create a more neutral canvas. Pro tip: always strand test first and chat with our color specialists for personalized guidance!

What Color Cancels Out Hot Pink Hair Color

Rocking a vibrant hot pink like our bold Vi shade? Time to bring in diluted Phantom Green! Hot pink packs more punch than its pastel cousin, so you'll want to use a stronger green to cancel out this shade of pink, but watered down to avoid going full Hulk mode.

The secret sauce here is prep work, babe. Try fading your current color as much as possible first (clarifying shampoo is your friend!), then apply your diluted Phantom Green. Don't skip the strand test and consider reaching out to our color experts for the best game plan!

What Color Cancels Out Magenta Pink Hair Color

That rich, deep magenta pink, like our stunning Virgin Pink, calls for diluted Iris Green. Magenta is basically pink's more sophisticated older sister – it's got those deeper, more complex tones that need a green with some serious depth to match.

Iris Green toned down is perfect for tackling those jewel-toned magentas. Since deeper colors are more stubborn, they fade first, then neutralize. Remember to test a small section and don't hesitate to get advice from our team of color pros!

What Color Cancels Out Neon Pink Hair Color

Neon pink like our Electric Paradise shade? For these super bright, in-your-face pinks, you'll want diluted Space Cowgirl to help bring things back to earth.

Neon colors are the rebels of the hair color world – they're intense, they're bold, and they don't go down without a fight. That's why pre-fading is crucial here. Let that color wash out as much as possible, then work your green magic. Strand testing and expert consultation? Still non-negotiable!

Frequently Asked Questions

What color reverses pink?

Green! Since green sits directly opposite pink on the color wheel, it's the perfect neutralizer for all things rosy.

What color will cover pink hair?

Looking to completely mask your pink hair color instead of neutralizing it? Purple, orange, red, and sometimes blue can work depending on your starting shade and how much it's faded.

What is the hardest color to remove from hair?

Blue, green, and black hair dyes are typically the most stubborn when it comes to removal. They just love to make themselves at home in your hair cuticles!

What color evens out pink?

Green! It's all about that color wheel magic – opposites attract and then cancel each other out.

FAQ About Blue Hair

Does blue hair fade quickly?

The longevity of your blue hair color depends on your chosen shade and hair care routine. 

A pastel blue hair color like Periwinkle usually fades much faster than a dark blue hair color like Sorceress. 

Blue hair color can be high-maintenance, but it's SO worth it! Pro tip: Wash your hair less frequently with cold water and use color-safe products to ensure your blue hair color sticks around as long as possible.

What skin tone works with blue hair?

Any! It's all about finding your perfect shade for YOU. A good rule of thumb is to use cooler blues for cool undertones and warmer teals for warm undertones.

Can I go blue without bleaching?

Yes, you can achieve some blue hair color without bleaching, but with limitations. 

If you have darker hair (level 6-9), colors like Aquamarine or Sorceress can create a subtle blue tint that's visible primarily in sunlight.

For more vivid results, like soft pastel blue or bold electric blue, bleaching your hair to level 10 platinum blonde is necessary.

Pro tip: Always perform a strand test first to ensure the color turns out exactly how you want it!
