If you've been scrolling through TikTok or Pinterest, you’ve seen the cherry hair trend exploding in 2025. Cherry hair is all about those rich, sultry red hues that scream playful glam and undeniable confidence. Want in? Here’s your step-by-step guide to achieving that bold, juicy cherry color with Arctic Fox’s Wrath!🔥😍

How To Get The Look With Wrath🍒

Wrath is the cherry on top of your bold hair goals. This rich, fiery red shade delivers a stunningly vibrant, high-impact color that grabs attention like never before. Whether you’re going full-on cherry bomb or just dipping your toes into the trend, Wrath is the perfect choice to get you there!💣💥😎

Best Bases: Wrath works its magic best on pre-lightened hair (level 7 or higher), but it also adds a dimensional, deep cherry tint to darker bases. Don't know what level you are? Read all about it here.❤️

Step 1: Start with a Clean, Dry Base 🌟

Before you dive into your cherry transformation, make sure your hair is clean and dry. Wash it with a gentle, sulfate-free shampoo to remove any buildup. Skip the conditioner for now because it can negatively impact the color payoff. Dry your hair thoroughly to ensure the color will go on evenly.

Step 2: Saturate Your Hair from Root to Tip💆‍♀️

Now the fun begins! Grab your bottle of Wrath (or mix it up for a custom shade) and start applying it to your hair. Use a bowl and brush or your hands (wear gloves!) to saturate every section of hair. The key is to ensure every strand is fully coated so you get that bold, vibrant color all over.

Step 3: Let It Saturate for at Least 30 Minutes⏲️

Once your hair is fully coated, let Wrath work its magic. The color should sit for at least 30 minutes, but feel free to leave it on longer. Arctic Fox dyes are packed with conditioning ingredients, so the longer you leave it on, the better the color can soak in and treat your hair. If you’ve got the time, let the color marinate for an hour or more—your hair will thank you!

Step 4: Rinse with Cold Water🧊

Now it’s time to rinse! Gently rinse your hair with cold water until the water runs clear. Cold water helps seal the color and lock in that gorgeous cherry hue. Avoid hot water, as it can cause the color to fade faster. Don’t worry if you see a little bit of color wash out—that’s totally normal and just means you’ve got vibrant color sealed in.

Step 5: Dry, Style, and Get Ready for Endless Compliments😍

Finally, it’s time to dry and style your cherry hair! Use your favorite blow dryer, curling iron, or let it air dry—whatever your hair loves best. Once it’s dry, you’re ready to turn heads. Get ready for the compliments because this cherry bomb look will have everyone asking where you got your color!

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.🤩🌰

• 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.✨
