    Why You’ll Love Ginger Flare 😍

    1. Works Wonders on Virgin and Bleached Hair: From natural to bleached bases, Ginger Flare shines bright. On virgin hair, it adds a warm, rich glow. On bleached hair, it transforms into a vivid, fiery shade that’s hard to miss. 🌟
    2. Vibrant Yet Natural: This isn’t just any ginger—it’s a stunning color that’s bold and spicy yet feels effortlessly natural. 🍂✨
    3. Perfect Alone or in Mixes: Whether you’re rocking it solo or blending it with other shades, Ginger Flare has got you covered. Mix it with other Arctic Fox colors to create your unique look! 🎨💖

    Pro Tips for Perfect Ginger Spice 💡

      1. Pre-Lighten for Best Results: For the most vibrant and true-to-color result, lighten your hair to a level 9 or 10 blonde before applying Ginger Flare. This will ensure your color pops and stays vibrant. 💫
  • Strand Test: It might seem like more work in the moment but TRUST US a strand test will save you a lot of time and frustration in the long run. Simply take a few strands of hair and apply the hair color as you normally would. Doing a strand test first ensures your hair will come out just the way you like, leaving ZERO room for error. 🥰
    1. Apply Sparingly: Ginger Flare is rich and intense. Start with a small amount and build up to your desired intensity. A little goes a long way! 🌟🖌️

    Keep It Fresh: To maintain that fiery ginger hue, use color-safe, sulfate-free shampoos and conditioners. Regular conditioning will keep your hair looking shiny and healthy. 🌿💧

    Mix It Up! 🎨

    Feeling adventurous? Ginger Flare is perfect for mixing. Combine it with Arctic Fox shades like Purple AF for a playful twist or Porange for an extra burst of warmth. Get creative and find your perfect blend! 🌈✨
