Autumn is here, and it's time to give your hair a makeover! With the leaves changing and the air getting crisp, there's no better time to experiment with a new hair color. This fall, we're seeing a resurgence of bold, vibrant shades, rich rubies, fiery reds, and of course a fall twist on the color of the year in baked peach. Let's dive into some of the hottest semi-permanent hair color trends to slay these coming Fall months! 

Ruby Wine

If you're looking for a deep, rich color that's perfect for fall, ruby wine is the way to go. This gorgeous shade can be easily achieved using a 50/50 mix of long-time Arctic Fox favs Ritual and Wrath. @stellacini got the most gorgeous velvet-y vibe with this mix over her faded green base! This rich color is sure to turn heads and is the perfect statement for fall. 

Ebony

@morganmckain in Transylvania 

Blue-toned black is sneaking back in, and we’re definitely not mad at it! Ebony is making the charts as a fall trending color, and it’s perfect for our Foxes who are dyeing to add a bit of mystery to their look. Pour up Transylvania to transform into whatever shade you’re rockin’ into a bold hair choice with a sultry, mystic edge. You can also add a touch of Blue Jean Baby for that extra punch.

Pro Tip: Transylvania is a pigmented color with blue undertones and will bleed during the dyeing process so be sure to cover up, use vaseline and scrub your shower immediately!

Neon Oranges and Pinks

This one might be a bit of a surprise, but fall is a great time to whip out the neons and make the boldest statement of 2024. Peachy oranges, and rusty pinks are THE color combo to totally seal the show and try something unique. Porange and Electric Paradise will be your stars for this show, both vibrant AF, and both with UV reactive tones that will glow in the dark if you’re gracing any festivals in the fall months. When working with these stunners, bleach will get you best results, so make sure you’re applying on a bleached, even base for the best results you could dream of! 

Baked Peach

@lolaliner in Peach Prosecco

Peach ruled 2024 from start to finish, and for a trendy twist on the color of the year, baked peach is the one to dye! You’ll need a platinum base for this look to shine it’s brightest, and then, you guessed it! Peach Prosecco is your gal. Add a few drops of Ginger Flare for a grungier vibe and you’ve got the hottest color on your hands.

Fiery Red

@missempi in Poison and Sunset Orange

RED has to be our favorite color - and if you’ve seen the Fox Fam rocking a red you KNOW you’ve found yourself heading to checkout for that same bottle. All our reds have INSANE color pigment payoff, but Poison is the IT girl when it comes to a good red. The lighter your base, the more venomous the color, so keep that in mind when you’ve decided on your poison. With a head of hair like this, you’ll be a walking fire hazard! 

Pro Tip: Sunset Orange is known for its red undertones, so a touch of that to your concoction and you’ll have to call the fire department! 

And that’s a wrap on our trend report, Fox Fam! Will you be dyeing any of these? Don’t forget to tag us @arcticfoxhaircolor and you just might get a feature. We can’t wait to see!

Obsessed with bright pink hair? Wanna turn heads wherever you go? Then Electric Paradise is your new BFF. This cult-favorite is our most epic neon pink with a subtle touch of coral, and its got a UV-reactive glow for that extra POP under blacklights. 

Electric Paradise is a vivid, versatile neon pink that has been one of the most popular Arctic Fox shades since it first launched in 2017 - if you haven’t given it a try yet, you’ve been missing out! Read on to discover the best ways to use this festival-ready, UV reactive shade!

Coloring with Electric Paradise

Electric Paradise is a semi-permanent dye, which means it fades out gradually over time. This is perfect for hair color newbies who want to experiment with a bold look without the commitment. Plus, it's made with vegan ingredients and free of harsh chemicals, so you can dye your hair guilt-free.

Best Base for Electric Paradise

Electric Paradise will shine brightest on pre-lightened hair, more specifically a Level 8 or lighter on the hair color chart. This means if your hair is naturally dark brown or black, you'll probably need to lighten it before you dye it pink. But don't worry, if you're not blonde already, achieving this look is still totally possible! Here are some tips for lightening your hair at home, but be sure to strand test first! 

Level Up: Electric Paradise on Different Hair Levels

Here's a breakdown of what you can expect from Electric Paradise on different hair bases:

• Level 9+ (light blonde): This is the sweet spot for Electric Paradise! You'll get the full-on neon pink with a vibrant UV glow.
• Level 7-8 (medium blonde): The pink will still be pretty bright, but it might have a slightly softer look. The UV glow might be a little less intense too.
• Level 6 (light brown): You'll see a softer pink with a hint of coral, but there probably won't be much of a UV glow.
• Level 5 (medium brown) and below: The dye won't show up very well on dark hair. But hey, if you don't want to lighten your whole head, you could always try a peekaboo highlight with Electric Paradise!

Not sure if your hair is light enough for Electric Paradise?  We always recommend a strand test first so you can see exactly how the color will turn out before applying it all over. But if you’re uncertain, and especially if your hair is unbleached, increasing the pigmentation is your best bet for ensuring a more medium tone like this will turn out visibly and vibrantly. Every AF shade has a swatch chart on the product page to help guide you in your quest for the perfect color, but if you have any questions about Electric Paradise or any other AF shade, feel free to send us an email at support@arcticfoxusa.com and we’d be happy to help!

Get Faded: How Electric Paradise Fades

Electric Paradise typically lasts for 4-6 weeks, depending on how you care for your hair. As it fades, you’ll notice that this color stays true to its undertones until the end, gradually fading into a lighter version of itself. To keep your pink looking fresh, try using color-safe shampoo and conditioner. Generally, washing your hair less often will also help your color last longer. Here are some other tips for making your dye last as long as it can:

• Avoid heat styling tools as much as possible. If you do use them, use a heat protectant spray first.
• Protect your hair from the sun. UV rays can cause hair color to fade. Wear a hat or spray in our UV protectant when you're going to be outside for extended periods of time.
• Avoid swimming in chlorine or saltwater. Chlorine and saltwater can strip hair color. If you do go swimming, rinse your hair with clean water afterwards.

Electric Paradise Mixology

Electric Paradise is stunning on its own, but it also plays well with others! Here are a few ideas for mixing Electric Paradise with other Arctic Fox colors:

• For a pastel pink: Mix Electric Paradise with Frosé on a level 9+ base.
• For a vibrant purple: Mix Electric Paradise with a dash of Purple AF on a level 7+ base.
• For a fiery orange: Mix Electric Paradise with Cosmic Sunshine on a level 8+ base.

This stunning split dye is a mix of 50% Ritual hair dye and 50% Arctic Mist Diluter on one side with Sterling hair dye and Electric Paradise hair dye mixed together for the other.

We partner with rescues like Pup Culture to prevent animal cruelty and promote animal welfare! If you’re in the Los Angeles area, you can apply to adopt the adorable doggos they rescue.

Dreamy Color Melt

Girls Night and Periwinkle

If a split dye isn’t calling your name but you still want to show off two colors at once, a color melt is your move! A color melt is simply starting with one color on the top part of your hair that quite literally melts beautifully as it meets with another color towards the bottom half of your hair! This stunning color melt is Girls Night hair dye and Periwinkle hair dye - and OMG it’s a literal dream. Girls Night and Periwinkle are on the lighter end of our vivid hair dyes, so you absolutely need to start with level 9 hair or lighter! Use our Bleach, Please hair lightening kit to get your hair to the desired level if you need, and always always do a strand test.

Halo

Virgin and Poison

Looking to mix it up even more? 👀 Check out halo hair, it’s literally everywhere right now! A halo color placement is one color on your first layer of hair, and a different color on the layers beneath it. It gives a gorgeous peekaboo effect and the styling options are truly endless! This fiery look from @alexajdmakeup was made using Virgin Pink hair dye and Poison hair dye. We love this color combo, especially during the month of February when red and pink hues reign supreme. Lucky for you AF shades are made for creating these daring looks at home! Virgin Pink hair color is a vibrant hot pink and will appear as a magenta tint on brown hair, its most vibrant form comes with pre-lightened hair. Poison hair color has a slight orange undertone that will prevent it from fading to a pink. Poison will give a dark, subtle tint to darker tones of hair but will turn out most vibrantly on hair that is pre-lightened to around a level 8. Give it a go the next time you’re feeling spicy!

Now that you’re a pro at color combos make sure you tag us on IG @arcticfoxhaircolor if you try out any of these mixes or split dyes. We love to see you explore your inner hairstylist with our DIY friendly hair dye colors!
