Ever stared at Billie Eilish's legendary green roots and thought, "I need that in my life"? Same, bestie. That iconic two-tone look with electric green roots and deep black ends is totally achievable at home with the right products and technique. Let's break down how to channel your inner Bad Guy with Arctic Fox Hair Color!

Step 1: Lighten Your Roots with AF's Bleach Please Collection

First things first—to get that vibrant green to pop, you'll need a light base. Arctic Fox's Bleach Please collection has everything you need:

Bleach Please Kit: Contains all the essentials needed for lifting your hair color safely.

Blue Powder Bleach: Perfect for neutralizing brassy tones while lightening.

White Powder Bleach: Easily monitor lifting throughout the process thanks to its colorless nature.

Only lighten the top section where you want the green to go. Aim for a pale yellow base, this will make your green absolutely electric!

Step 2: Dye Time with Space Cowgirl and Transylvania

Now for the fun part—adding those signature Billie colors:

Space Cowgirl: This vibrant lime green hair dye is the secret to nailing Billie's iconic root color.

Transylvania: The perfect deep black hair dye for those dramatic ends.

Application tips: Apply Space Cowgirl first, saturating your pre-lightened roots completely. Work the color in thoroughly for even coverage. Then, apply Transylvania to your ends, creating that sharp contrast.

Leave the dye on for at least 30 minutes—though longer processing time (45-60 minutes) will give you more intensity and staying power.

Step 3: Rinse and Aftercare

This step is crucial to keep those colors from mixing! Rinse with cold water starting at the ends and gradually working up to the roots. 

Pro tip: Apply conditioner to your black ends before rinsing the green section—this creates a barrier that prevents the black from bleeding into your fresh green.

For maintenance, use color-safe products like Arctic Fox's Resurrected Shampoo and Conditioner. These gentle formulas will keep your two-tone look vibrant while preventing premature fading.

@Sophiaxnova_ in Purple AF

Dyeing your hair with vivids can feel like a bold move, but trust us, it doesn’t have to be intimidating! If you dream of vibrant locks but want something beginner-friendly and low-maintenance, we’ve got you covered. Check out some of our favorite shades that are perfect for any skill level and stay stunning with minimal effort.💕

Purple AF 💜

Looking for a color that’s bold but easygoing? Purple AF is your new bestie. This deep, cool-toned purple works on all hair levels, from platinum blonde to dark brown. Purple AF’s highly pigmented formula means the color will stick around longer so you don’t have to touch up your color as often. It fades gracefully into a lavender shade on lighter hair and a muted purple on darker tones, no awkward in-between stage here! 🔮

Wrath 🔥

This juicy red is a fan favorite for a good reason! Wrath delivers a deep, ruby hue that’s striking on any hair color. This shade is a deep red with berry undertones which can become more pink as it gradually fades. It shows up well on brassy tones and gives dark, dimensional tints to darker hair. This shade is most vivid on hair pre-lightened to a level 7 or lighter.🍒❤️

Sunset Orange 🌇

Bring the golden hour to your hair 24/7 with Sunset Orange! This shade is a fiery, deep red-orange that looks captivating on light and dark hair. Brassy tones won’t cause any problems for this color, if anything they will make it even brighter. The red undertones of Sunset Orange may come through stronger on light bases around a level 9 or 10. This highly pigmented shade takes a while to fade but once it does, it turns into soft peach tones that are just as dreamy.🍊🧡

Virgin Pink 🌸

If pink is your thing, Virgin Pink is a must-try! This playful magenta pops beautifully on lighter hair while giving darker hair a stunning berry tint. As it fades, it transitions to a softer, pastel pink that’s equally charming. While this shade is eye-catching on every base, it looks brightest on a level 7 or higher.🌹💕

Aquamarine 🌊

Channel mermaid vibes with Aquamarine, a vivid blue with teal undertones that’s absolutely mesmerizing. Light hair gets a vibrant blue turquoise, while darker bases show off a teal ocean blue tint. This gorgeous jewel tone stays vibrant for a long time but when it does eventually fade, it transforms into a dreamy seafoam green. For vibrant results, apply Aquamarine to level 10 platinum blonde hair.🫧💙

Tips for Keeping Your Vivid Color Fresh ✨

Rinse with cold water: It helps seal the hair cuticle to lock in color and prevent bleeding and fading.🧊

Extend time between washes: Dry shampoo is your BFF!💨

Style smart: Braids and buns are not only cute but also color-safe.🎀

Use the right products: Stick to sulfate- and alcohol-free hair care to keep your color vibrant.🧴
