How Do I Know If I Have a Yellow Skin Tone?

Not sure if you fall into the yellow undertone family? No worries, bestie! Here's a quick check:

• Look at your veins – if they appear more greenish under your skin, you likely have warm undertones

• Gold jewelry typically looks amazing on you

• Your skin might tan easily rather than burn

• Yellow or gold-tinted clothing makes your complexion pop

If you're nodding along to most of these, congratulations! You've got those gorgeous yellow/golden undertones that work beautifully with so many hair colors.

What Hair Colors Look Good on Yellow Skin Tones?

With yellow undertones, you've hit the hair color jackpot! Your warm complexion provides the perfect canvas for an exciting spectrum of colors. 

Rich, warm shades like copper and fiery red enhance your natural glow, while vibrant options like electric purple, hot pink, and lime green create stunning contrasts that make these colors truly pop.

Deep jewel tones such as emerald and amethyst add beautiful dimension, and bright options like coral and peachy pink harmonize with your warmth, giving you that effortless radiance we all crave.

With all this being said, please remember there are NO rules when it comes to beauty and self-expression. Choose a hair color that makes YOU feel happy and confident! At Arctic Fox, our vibrant, cruelty-free semi-permanent hair dyes are designed to help you express your unique style—your hair is your canvas, paint it with whatever colors bring you joy!

Frequently Asked Questions

What hair color makes skin look less yellow?

If you're looking to neutralize rather than enhance yellow undertones, colors with cool or ashy bases work wonders! 

Lavender tones, ash browns, or cool-toned pastels can help balance warmth in the skin. Just remember, your natural undertones aren't something to "fix," but rather a unique feature to work with!

How do I pick the right hair color for my skin tone?

Consider your undertone (warm, cool, neutral) and skin depth as a starting point! Yellow undertones pop with both complementary purples/blues and harmonious reds/oranges. Try semi-permanent hair colors first to discover what feels right for you. 

Remember, though, there are NO rules in self-expression! The perfect hair color is simply the one that makes you feel amazing. Trust your instincts and rock whatever shade brings you joy and confidence!

Does brown hair look good on yellow skin?

Absolutely! Warm-toned browns like caramel, honey, or chestnut can look especially gorgeous against yellow undertones. They create a harmonious effect that enhances your natural glow. If you want more contrast, try a rich chocolate brown with subtle warm highlights.

Is yellow undertone warm or neutral?

Yellow undertones fall firmly in the warm family! These golden hues in the skin pair beautifully with warm-toned hair colors like Sunset Orange or Cosmic Sunshine, but can also create striking contrasts with cooler tones like Purple AF or Aquamarine. Embracing your warm undertones is the key to finding your most flattering hair color match.

Your Hair Color Adventure Awaits!

Finding your perfect hair color for your skin tone isn't about rules, it's about joy and self-expression! Whether you're vibing with bold, neon, or subtle vibes, the right color is simply the one that makes YOU feel fantastic.

Remember, all of our semi-permanent hair dyes are vegan, cruelty-free, and conditioning—because your self-expression deserves the BEST! 

Look, transitioning from red to purple hair color isn't just possible—it's actually one of the smoothest color moves you can make. 

We've seen thousands of transformations, and this combo consistently delivers stunning results without damaging your hair. Let's break down exactly how to nail it with Arctic Fox.

Color Wheel Logic: Why Covering Red Hair with Purple Hair Dye Actually Works

Quick color theory breakdown: red and purple sit right next to each other on the color wheel, making them natural hair color transition partners. 

This proximity means you can shift from red to purple hair dye without creating those tragic, muddy tones that happen when you try to force incompatible colors together.

This positioning is why you won't need to bleach first—the colors will blend rather than fight each other. Trust us, your hair will thank you.

How to Cover Bright Red Hair Color with Purple Hair Dye

Poison covered with Violet Dream

Got a true red hair color like Poison lighting up your head? Violet Dream is your solution for turning those red locks into a stunning purple moment.

The science here is straightforward: Violet Dream's magenta undertones beautifully complement the orange tones found in Poison, creating a vibrant, warm-toned violet that looks intentional and harmonious rather than accidental.

For flawless application:

1. Start with completely dry, clean hair for maximum color deposit (seriously, don't skip this)

2. Section properly with our Alligator Clips—rushing this step is how you get patchy results

3. Process for 40+ minutes, the longer you leave it on, the more vibrant your color payoff will be

4. Rinse with the coldest water you can stand and only use color-safe hair products

The result is that show-stopping purple hair color that radiates warmth and originality in any environment.

How to Cover Cherry Red Hair Color with Purple Hair Dye

Wrath covered with Purple AF

If you're working with Wrath and its pink undertones, Purple AF is going to be your best friend for making the hair color switch with minimal damage.

This combo works because the pink base in Wrath already has some of the tones you need for purple—you're just pushing it further in that direction with our highly pigmented Fox Fam favorite. 

For this transition:

1. Apply Purple AF to bone-dry hair for intense color payoff

2. Be generous with the product—skimping creates a patchy finish

3. 45 minutes minimum processing time for best results

4. Rinse with cold water and minimal color-safe shampoo and conditioner

You'll end up with a rich, multidimensional purple hair dye color that photographs like a dream.

How to Cover Dark Red Hair Color with Purple Hair Dye

Ritual covered with Sorceress

Are you ready to ditch the deep burgundy of Ritual? Transform your red hair color with Sorceress for a bewitching midnight purple hair color.

Since Ritual already belongs to the darker color palette, the transformation is nuanced yet remarkably striking.

For this darker-to-darker transformation:

• Apply Sorceress thoroughly to clean, completely dry hair

• Allow the dye to process for at least 40 minutes, use a shower cap to contain heat and boost color penetration

• Cold water rinse with color-safe products only

The result is a deep, multidimensional purple with that expensive-looking depth that turns heads.

FAQ: What You Actually Need to Know

Can you put purple hair color on dyed red hair?

Yes, and it's one of the few color transitions that genuinely work without bleach. Adjacent color wheel positioning means you'll get a true purple hair color rather than something muddy.

What colors cover red hair dye?

Purple works best, followed by burgundy and some blues. Don't try green, yellow, or pastel shades directly over red—physics won't allow it without bleach.

Is it possible to change your red hair color without bleach?

Absolutely. With Arctic Fox Hair Color, you can move between adjacent color wheel positions without bleach. Red to purple is a textbook example of this.

How long does purple hair dye last?

Typically 4-8 weeks, with longevity depending on wash frequency, hair porosity, and specific shade. Purple AF’s formula outlasts most competing shades thanks to its concentrated pigment. 

For maximum staying power, wash your hair less frequently with color-safe shampoo, rinse with cold water, and mix your dye with conditioner for a weekly color-depositing hair mask.

Will red undertones show through if I cover red hair with purple hair dye?

Some dimension leftover from the red actually creates depth that a single color lacks. If you want pure purple with zero red hair color, go for a second application with longer processing time.

How do I maintain purple hair color?

Extend your purple hair color for weeks longer by washing with cold water, using homemade color-depositing conditioner with your leftover dye, and limiting heat styling.

Embrace dry shampoo between washes to reduce color fade. UV-protective products and avoiding chlorinated water will further preserve your vibrant purple investment.

Conquering the Red-to-Purple Hair Color Shift

Arctic Fox's vegan, conditioning, semi-permanent hair dye makes this transition not just possible but actually good for your hair. Unlike harsh color removers or bleach, you're adding moisture while changing your look.

Ready to make waves with your hair game? Let's talk about one of the hottest trends that'll have heads turning wherever you go: dark hair with electric blue highlights! It's edgy yet wearable, bold but not overwhelming, and trust us—it's the perfect way to express yourself without committing to a full head of vibrant color. 

Whether you're a color newbie or a seasoned hair chameleon, this look screams "main character energy" while still being totally manageable for everyday life. 

Grab your favorite snack, because your besties at Arctic Fox are about to spill all the tea on creating this show-stopping style!

What You'll Need:

• Arctic Fox Transylvania (deep black semi-permanent hair dye)

• Arctic Fox Jinx (electric blue semi-permanent hair dye)

• Arctic Fox Bleach Please Kit

• Alligator clips

• Shower Cap

• Gloves

• Bowls and Brushes

• Color-safe, sulfate-free shampoo and conditioner

Let's Get Started!

Step 1: Section Like a Pro

Start with clean, dry hair, this gives you the perfect canvas for color magic! Grab those alligator clips and section out a chunky face-framing piece that'll give you that "wow" factor the minute you walk into a room. 

Then, section out another large chunk toward the back of your head for that peek-a-boo effect that's subtle yet stunning. These sections will be your blue statement pieces!

Step 2: Lighten Up

If your hair isn't already light enough, it's bleaching time! Those sections reserved for blue need to be lightened to a level 9/10 platinum blonde for the most vibrant results. 

Our Bleach Please collection makes this process super easy, even for beginners. Need more deets on bleaching? Check out our comprehensive bleaching guide blog for all the do's and don'ts!

Step 3: Color Time!

Once your bleached sections are thoroughly dried, it's time for the fun part! Apply Jinx electric blue hair dye to those lightened sections, making sure to saturate every strand completely. 

For the rest of your hair, apply Transylvania for that rich, deep contrast that makes the blue truly pop. The key here is precision—take your time to avoid color bleeding between sections.

Step 4: Patience Pays Off

Let your hair soak up all that color goodness for at least 30 minutes to an hour. But here's the best part: our semi-permanent hair dyes are actually deep conditioning treatments without harsh chemicals, so the longer you leave them on, the better!

Pro tip: throw on a shower cap, binge a few episodes of your favorite show, or tackle some chores around the house while your hair drinks up that vibrant color. Your future self will thank you for that extra time!

Step 5: Rinse Smart

Ready to reveal your masterpiece? Rinse out your color with cold water (hot water is color's worst enemy!) and your favorite color-safe, sulfate-free shampoo and conditioner. 

For best results, rinse the blue sections first, then apply conditioner to those areas as a protective barrier before rinsing out the dark sections. This prevents any unwanted color bleeding and keeps your blue sections vibrant.

Step 6: Time to Shine!

You did it! Now go show off your gorgeous new dark hair with blue highlights. 

Get ready for all the "OMG, who did your hair?!" comments—and the smug satisfaction of saying "I did it myself!"

Frequently Asked Questions

How Do You Stop Hair Dye From Bleeding Into Other Colors?

Cold water is your BFF when it comes to preventing color bleeding! 

Always rinse each color section separately, and apply conditioner to the sections you've already washed before moving onto the next. This creates a barrier that helps keep colors in their designated lanes.

What Is A Color Block in Hair?

Color blocking is a technique where you create distinct sections of different colors that stand out against each other. 

Unlike subtle highlights or balayage, color blocking is meant to create a bold contrast between sections.

What Does Blue Hair Color Fade To?

One of the coolest things about Arctic Fox shades is that they fade within the color spectrum. 

This means Jinx will gradually fade to lighter shades of blue rather than those awkward green or gray tones you might get with other brands. It's like getting multiple looks as your color evolves!

What Colors Look Good With Blue Hair?

Blue and black are a match made in hair heaven! The deep, rich tones of Transylvania create the perfect backdrop for Jinx's electric blue to really stand out. 

This high-contrast pairing creates depth and dimension that's both dramatic and sophisticated. Other great pairings include purple tones or even a touch of teal for a multi-dimensional mermaid effect.

So you've gone blonde, but now you're dealing with those annoying yellow tones? Don't panic! Your besties are here with all the tea on how to transform that brassy blonde into the cool, ashy shade of your dreams. 

This isn't rocket science, just a few tricks that'll have you serving ice queen vibes in no time!

Why Does Hair Turn Yellow? 

Hair turns yellow mainly due to oxidation, sun exposure, and mineral buildup from hard water. When you bleach your hair, it's actually revealing the underlying warm pigments that naturally exist in your strands - those stubborn yellow tones are what's left behind after the bleach lifts your natural color! 

Over time, these yellow tones become more noticeable as your bleached hair continues to oxidize. Heat styling tools and chlorine from pools can accelerate this yellowing process too. 

Basically, your blonde is constantly fighting environmental factors that are trying to turn it into a yellow mess, it's like your hair's own little battle against the elements!

What Color Toner Neutralizes Yellow Hair?

Purple toner is your bestie for neutralizing yellow hair! This works because purple sits opposite yellow on the color wheel, so it cancels out those brassy tones when applied. Look for purple shampoos, conditioners, or professional toning treatments depending on how intense your yellowing is. 

For a DIY hack that seriously works, mix a tiny dot of Arctic Fox's Purple AF, Girls Night, or Periwinkle semi-permanent dye into your regular shampoo or conditioner. You will have created an instant custom purple toning product without the salon price tag! 

For subtle warmth, a weekly purple treatment might do the trick, but for that "I just left the salon" cool blonde, you might need a more concentrated purple formula to kick those yellow tones to the curb.

Say Goodbye to Yellow and Hello to Ash!

Yellow tones can be stubborn little devils, but with the right approach, you can banish them for good. 

Whether you're a DIY queen or a salon regular who needs some maintenance between appointments, we’ve got you covered with this step-by-step guide that actually works.

Step 1: Wash That Yellow Away

First things first, let's try the gentlest approach before bringing in the big guns. Sometimes those yellow tones are just buildup that needs a good cleanse!

• Start washing your hair more frequently with warm (not hot!) water

• Switch to a clarifying shampoo to remove product buildup that might be causing discoloration

• Make sure to follow up with our Pool Party Hair Mask to replenish moisture because nobody wants straw-like strands, am I right?

• Massage that mask in, leave for 5-10 minutes, and rinse with cool water

Trust us, this simple step makes a HUGE difference for some blondes, and your hair will thank you for the hydration boost!

Step 2: DIY Vitamin C Treatment

If those yellow tones are as stubborn as your ex who keeps watching your Instagram stories, it's time to try this miracle worker!

• Crush up about 5-10 vitamin C tablets into a fine powder

• Mix the powder with your regular shampoo until it forms a paste

• Apply the mixture to damp hair, focusing on the yellowest areas

• Cover with a shower cap and let it sit for 30-60 minutes

• Rinse thoroughly and follow up with our Money Hunny Serum to restore shine and hydration

This vitamin C trick is literally life-changing and works by gently stripping away color molecules that cause yellowing. Your hair might feel a bit dry afterward, but that's why the Money Hunny Serum exists, bestie!

Step 3: Purple Power to the Rescue

Now for the main event! Purple is yellow's opposite on the color wheel, which means it neutralizes those brassy tones like magic. Choose the right purple product based on your specific yellow situation:

• Periwinkle: Our pastel blue with purple undertone hair dye is perfect for darker yellow tones that lean orange. Mix Periwinkle with conditioner and leave on for 15-20 minutes before rinsing.

• Girls Night: THE holy grail for achieving that ashy platinum look. Dilute our pastel purple hair dye, Girls Night, with conditioner and leave it on for 15-20 minutes.

• Purple AF: For darker blondes, mix 1-2 drops of Purple AF with your regular conditioner for a gentle toning effect without going overboard.

Pro tip: Always wear gloves when applying purple products unless you want purple-stained nails for your date night! 

Also, don't leave these products on too long, or you'll end up with lavender hair color (cute, but probably not the look you're going for!).

Step 4: Prevention is Key

Once you've achieved that perfect ashy tone, let's keep it that way, shall we?

• Avoid chlorine like it's your toxic ex! If you must take a dip, apply our Pool Party hair mask for protection before diving in

• Apply our OG Hair Perfume, which not only smells like our famous grape scent, but it also doubles as a UV protectant to prevent sun damage

• Use cold water for final rinses to seal the cuticle and lock in your color

Remember: maintaining that perfect ash tone is a marathon, not a sprint. A little maintenance goes a long way!

FAQs About Toning Yellow Hair

How often should I tone my hair?

 Listen to your locks! Most people need to tone every 2-3 weeks, but if you're using purple hair treatments 1-2 times a week as maintenance, you might stretch that even longer.

Can I tone my hair too much?

Yes, babe! Over-toning can lead to dryness and even a purple cast. If your hair starts looking dull or lilac-tinted, take a break from toning products.

Will toning damage my already-processed hair? 

When done correctly, toning is much gentler than bleaching. Always follow with deep conditioning treatments to keep your hair healthy.

Can I go from golden blonde to ash blonde at home? 

Absolutely! As mentioned above, there are a few ways to do this, like washing your hair with clarifying shampoo, using a vitamin C hair mask, and using purple hair toning products!

But be patient, it might take a few sessions to reach your desired level of ashiness.

What if purple products aren't working? 

You might need a stronger professional toner with blue tones if you're dealing with orange-yellow hues. Consider messaging our color specialists if purple products aren't cutting it.

Ready for Your Ash Blonde Journey?

That's it, bestie! From one blonde to another, trust us when we say that achieving and maintaining ash blonde hair isn't as complicated as the internet makes it seem. With these simple steps and the right products, you'll be serving cool-toned realness in no time!

Remember: healthy hair should always be the priority, so don't skip those hydrating treatments. Now go forth and rock that gorgeous ash blonde like the queen you are! 💁♀️✨

Pink hair is a total vibe, but when you're ready for a change, we've got good news – pink is actually one of the easier vivid shades to remove! 

Whether you're prepping for a new hair color adventure or just need a break, here's your guide to fading pink hair color.

How to Remove Different Types of Hair Dye

Before we dive into hair color removal, let's break down the dye diversity and how to kick each type to the curb! Understanding your specific hair color commitment level is key to saying "thank u, next" to that shade you're over.

How to Remove Permanent Hair Dye

Permanent color is the ride-or-die bestie that doesn't know when to leave! Since it penetrates deep into your hair shaft, it's definitely the toughest to remove. Our best advice? Chat with a pro stylist who can create a custom exit strategy with minimal damage. But if you're in DIY desperation mode, try washing with warm water and clarifying shampoo or whip up a vitamin C hair mask to gradually fade that stubborn shade.

How to Remove Semi-Permanent Hair Dye

Semi-permanent dye gives you that long-lasting color relationship without the hardcore commitment! This dye only coats your hair shaft instead of moving in permanently, making it your easier-going color option. Ready to break up? You've got options! Try a vitamin C mask for gentle fading, up your washing game with clarifying shampoo and warm water, or go for a bleach bath if you're feeling bold.

How to Remove Temporary Hair Dye

Temporary dye is basically the color fling of hair products! This no-strings-attached option washes out super easily. Just step up your shower routine with warm water and clarifying shampoo, or take a dip in the pool or ocean—that chlorine or salt water will have your color saying "bye, Felicia" in no time!

Hair Type Considerations

Let's talk about hair types, bestie! When it comes to color removal, your strands' natural texture will completely impact how you should approach the process. Not all textures play by the same rules, from straight hair to curly, each hair type needs its own special brand of TLC.

Straight Hair 

Straight hair tends to withstand damage more than the rest of the bunch! However, a lot of straight hair babes tend to have fine, thin strands which can be a challenge of its own. This resilient texture can usually handle the more intense color removal methods like bleach baths without throwing a major tantrum.

Wavy Hair

Wavy babes, you're in the middle ground! Your gorgeous texture has decent resilience but still needs a bit more care than your straight-haired friends. Vitamin C hair masks can be your BFF for color removal, it's effective without being too harsh on your waves.

Curly Hair

Curl squad, listen up! Your beautiful spirals need extra love during color removal. Going too aggressive can mess with your precious curl pattern (and nobody wants that drama!). Keep it gentle with more frequent warm water washes using clarifying shampoo, your curls will thank you for the soft approach!

Easy Ways to Fade Your Pink Hair Color

Wash, Rinse, Repeat!

Frosé fading

Turn up the heat (literally!) by washing your hair more frequently with warm water and a clarifying shampoo. 

The warmer water opens up those hair cuticles, helping the pink pigment release faster. A couple of extra washes a week can make a HUGE difference!

DIY Vitamin C Magic

Vi fading

Mix crushed vitamin C tablets with your shampoo for a super-effective fading treatment! This gentle acidic mixture helps break down those semi-permanent hair color molecules without the damage of harsh chemicals. 

For best results: After applying, wrap your hair in a shower cap and let it sit for about 15-20 minutes before rinsing thoroughly and following with a deep conditioner or hair mask.

Take a Dip!

Electric Paradise fading

Planning a pool day? Your chlorinated or saltwater swim session can help fade your pink hair color! Just remember to use our Money Hunny Hair Repair Serum afterward to keep your locks healthy and hydrated!

Last Resort: Bleach Bath 

Virgin Pink fading

For a more dramatic fade, try a gentle bleach bath. Mix a small amount of Arctic Fox White Powder Bleach with shampoo and a splash of developer for a milder, more controlled color removal. 

This diluted mixture is less harsh than straight bleach but still effective at lifting that pink pigment. For best results: Consult with our color specialists for personalized help and perform a strand test first!
