2025 is here and Pantone just dropped their Color of the Year: Mocha Mousse! ☕🤎 This warm, earthy shade has us dreaming of cozy mornings with a cup of coffee, soft sweaters, and of course, stunning hair transformations.😏 So, grab your dye bowls and brushes because we’re breaking down how to achieve and SLAY this trend using Arctic Fox Hair Color. Let’s make this the year of rich, mocha vibes.🍫✨

What is Mocha Mousse?🤔

Mocha Mousse is the ultimate blend of soft brown and warm undertones, creating a shade that is luxurious and grounding.✨ Think creamy coffee tones mixed with a hint of golden warmth—it’s a hue that radiates coziness and sophistication. Perfect for starting a new chapter in 2025, Mocha Mousse gives off relaxed yet confident energy. It’s earthy, approachable, and pairs beautifully with the neutral and metallic trends we’re seeing everywhere. This shade is also incredibly versatile. Whether you want a full-on monochromatic look or add a contrasting color to your usual bold locks, Mocha Mousse vibes with any aesthetic.😌🧸

Getting Pantone’s Color of the Year with Arctic Fox🤎

Ready to make Mocha Mousse your go-to shade? Here’s how you can create this dreamy color using Arctic Fox Hair Color’s vegan and cruelty-free dyes:

1. Start with a Light Base: If your hair is darker than a medium brown, we recommend lightening it to a level 6 or 7 for the Mocha Mousse tones to really pop. Use our Bleach, Please collection for a gentle, effective lift. 🌟
2. Mix Your Perfect Shade: To nail the Mocha Mousse look, mix 90% Arctic Mist Diluter, 8% Sunset Orange and 2% Phantom Green. For deeper tones, add a splash of Wrath or Ritual to bring out those rich coffee vibes.🧋 
3. Application Time: Apply the mixture evenly from root to tip, ensuring every strand is coated. Let it process for 30-45 minutes for that vibrant, long-lasting color we’re known for.😉
4. Rinse and Reveal: Rinse with cold water to lock in your color and get ready to live your Mocha Mousse fantasy.🤩🌰

Keep Your Mocha Mousse Fresh AF💫

Once you’ve achieved your perfect Mocha Mousse look, you’ll want to keep it looking fresh and fabulous! Here’s how:

• Wash Smart: Use sulfate-free shampoo and conditioner, like our Resurrected Shampoo and Conditioner set, to keep your color vibrant for as long as possible.🫧
• Cold Water Rinse: Always rinse with cold water to seal the hair cuticle and prevent fading.💧
• Deep Condition: Hydration is key! Treat your hair weekly with a moisturizing mask like Pool Party to keep it soft and shiny.✨
• Wash Less Often: Keep your Mocha Mousse shade around longer by extending the time between wash days with Dry Shampoo and cute hairstyles.​​👩🏽

Nail the Trend (Literally!) 💅

Want to go all in on the Mocha Mousse vibe? Pair your hair with matching nails! Think glossy mocha, matte taupe, or even some gold accents for a chic, cohesive look. Luckily for you, we have perfect and effortless gel nail kits to complete your look. Your hair and nails will be serving the ultimate “main character energy” this year.😌🤎
