AF Blog — Pro Tips

Ever wondered what happens when a comedian decides to add some color to their life? We sat down with the amazing stylists behind comedian Natalie Cuomo's stunning hair transformation for our "Dye Laughing" collaboration. 

Trust us, this isn't just about changing hair color—it's about embracing change, celebrating individuality, and finding the confidence to stand out both on stage and off.

Meet the Dream Team Behind the Look

First things first—let's give credit where credit is due! 

We caught up with Siobhan, owner of CutLoose Hair Salon in trendy Greenpoint, Brooklyn, and her star colorist, Randi, who together created Natalie's jaw-dropping transformation.

"I'm the owner of CutLoose Hair Salon in Brooklyn, New York. We've been around for eight years," Siobhan tells us. "It's a fun disco salon that's young and youthful—it's colorful inside so people feel good about cutting loose and having a little fun with their hair."

But it's Randi who brought the color magic to life. With 16 years of experience under her belt, Randi started her journey at just 16 years old. "I was failing high school, and they were like, 'You've got to do something.' So I was like, 'I like doing hair. That could be fun,'" she laughs.

Coming from a small conservative town where creative expression wasn't always encouraged, Randi found her true calling in the city. "Breaking away from that and being in the city and finding people that reflected my personality really helped me come into my own as a stylist," she explains.

The Secret Sauce: Building Trust and Connection

What makes Randi's approach so special? It's all about that connection.

 "The most important thing about doing hair is having your clients feel comfortable with you and feeling like they can trust you," Randi explains. "You need to bridge the gap of communication and make sure they know you're on the same page."

This trust-building approach was especially crucial for Natalie's transformation, considering she was stepping outside her comfort zone. Working in Greenpoint means Randi sees all types, from the younger Bushwick crowd to the more mature Williamsburg clientele. 

She explains that this diversity is what makes her a better stylist, as each client teaches her something new, so by the time someone sits in her chair, she has the experience to help them achieve exactly the look they're dreaming of.

How Natalie Landed in the Chair

The collaboration came together through connections in the comedy world. 

Siobhan's friend David, who works in advertising, connecting comedians with brands, approached her about the Arctic Fox partnership. 

"He collaborated with Arctic Fox, and I immediately thought of Randi to do the color because she'd be perfect for it!" Siobhan recalls.

But here's the thing—Natalie was nervous.

"She was really nervous because her brand leans more basic, and that was kind of what she was known for," Randi explains.

 "We definitely had to have a lot of conversations about how to find a middle ground between what you want and being creative while still being true to who you are and what feels authentic."

The Creative Process: From Nerves to "Sunset Sherbet"

The transformation was all about collaboration and addressing Natalie's concerns head-on. "I had to speak to her before she even came in, and she was like, 'I don't want rainbow hair. I don't want it all to be purple," Randi recalls. 

The solution came through Randi's Pinterest board consultation, where she presented multiple options based on Natalie's "sunset peachy vibes." 

But there was a twist—Natalie is colorblind! "I'm like, 'Okay, here are these colors,' and she's like, 'Well, I can't really tell the difference.' So that's where she put her trust in me," Randi explains.

The breakthrough was designing a look that worked for Natalie's lifestyle as a touring comedian. "I did a little halo placement, but I still highlighted it in so it wasn't just a solid chunk of color," Randi explains. "She's on the road all the time, so maintaining it is really hard. This way, you can easily keep recoloring it or do different things, but you still have your natural base so she'd still feel like herself."

Taking those peachy vibes, Randi created her signature sunset blend, a strategic color placement that gave maximum impact with minimal upkeep. "It was a collaboration between all of us and there was a lot of back and forth, but I think we honestly got the best result," Randi concludes.

The Technical Breakdown: Creating the Perfect "Peek-a-Boo"

Porange blended into Peach Prosecco blended into Frosé

Ready for the how-to? Randi breaks down her technique:

The Cut: Siobhan created a shaggy bang that would perfectly complement the color placement.

The Placement: "I did a halo section underneath because I wanted it to peek out from the bang," Randi explains. She kept the sections smaller than you'd imagine for maximum impact with minimal commitment.

The Technique: Instead of solid color blocking, Randi wove out some natural color and left a bit of root for a more diffused, natural effect. "In color blocking, sometimes less is more," she notes.

The Color Blend: Using Arctic Fox's vibrant shades, Randi created a sunset gradient:

• Porange at the root

• Peach Prosecco in the middle

• Frosé at the ends

"Whenever somebody has a color in mind, especially when they're doing vivids, I'm always like, why would we do one color when we could do like seven?" Randi laughs.

Why This Look Works: The Psychology of Peek-a-Boo Color

This wasn't just about creating a pretty color—it was strategic. "I highlighted the shades in, so it wasn't just a solid chunk of color, and it would grow out nicely because she's on the road all the time. Maintaining it can be really hard," Randi explains.

The placement was genius for someone nervous about change. "After it's lifted, you can easily keep recoloring it or do different things to it, but you still have your natural base. So it would still make her feel like herself without being a complete change."

The Connection: Comedy Meets Color

What we love most about this transformation is how it mirrors the comedy world. Just like stand-up, changing your hair color is about:

• Self-Expression: Using your appearance to tell your story

• Confidence: Having the courage to try something new

• Boldness: Standing out from the crowd

• Fun: Not taking yourself too seriously

"It was the perfect way to tiptoe into a big change," Randi explains. "Diffused but still impactful—she had fun and you could tell she was really enjoying it, especially considering how nervous she was at first."

The Final Reveal: "Sunset Sherbet" Hair

When asked to name the look, Randi didn't hesitate: "Peach sunset sherbet."

The result? A stunning peek-a-boo that gave Natalie the perfect pop of color while staying true to her brand. The gradient effect created movement and dimension, while the strategic placement meant she could show as much or as little color as she wanted.

3. Don't be afraid to blend multiple colors for dimension

4. Trust your colorist's professional opinion

5. Remember: sometimes less is more for maximum impact

The Takeaway: Embrace Your Bold

Just like comedy, hair color is about finding your voice, taking risks, and having fun with the process. 

Whether you're stepping on stage or stepping out with new hair, it's all about owning your unique identity and embracing change.

Oops! Did your purple hair experiment go a little too wild? Or maybe that gorgeous amethyst shade just isn't vibing with your current mood anymore? Don't panic, babe – we've all been there! 

Whether you're dealing with an accidental purple mishap or just ready for a fresh new look, your hair color besties at Arctic Fox have got your back. 

Let's dive into all the tried-and-true ways to say "bye-bye" to that purple and get you back to your dream shade!

Color Wheel Theory: The Science Behind the Magic

Here's where we get a little nerdy (but in a fun way!). 

Yellow and purple are total opposites on the color wheel – like that friend who's always arguing with you but somehow makes perfect sense. When these two colors meet, they literally cancel each other out!

Depending on how deep and dramatic your purple is, yellow hair dye can help tone it down, making it way more neutral or less in-your-face vibrant. 

If you're going for that natural, effortless vibe, consider a warm brown with golden or orangey undertones – it's like giving your purple a cozy hug that neutralizes it beautifully.

Other Game-Changing Options for Removing Purple Hair Dye

Clarifying Shampoo: Your New BFF

Think of clarifying shampoo as your hair's personal trainer – it works hard to fade that color over time! 

We're talking about washing your hair more often (yeah, we know, high maintenance life) with warm water to pull out as much color as possible. 

Just don't forget to follow up with a deep conditioner after each wash because nobody wants dry, straw-like hair. Your locks need that moisture love!

DIY Vitamin C Hair Mask: Kitchen Chemistry at Its Finest

Periwinkle toned to blonde

Got some stubborn purple that just won't quit? Time to raid your medicine cabinet! Here's how to make this color-lifting magic:

What you'll need:

• 15-20 colorless vitamin C tablets 

• 2-3 tablespoons of clarifying shampoo

• Warm water

How to work this magic:

1. Crush those vitamin C tablets into a fine powder

2. Mix with your clarifying shampoo and just enough warm water to make a paste

3. Apply to damp hair and let it sit for 30-60 minutes

4. Rinse thoroughly and condition like your hair's life depends on it

Why it works: Vitamin C is basically an acid that breaks down hair dye molecules. Science is cool, right?

Bleach Bath: Proceed with Caution, Queen

Bleach baths are like the gentler cousin of straight-up bleach, but they can still be a little spicy for your hair cuticles and in some cases cause color staining. 

Always, always do a strand test first and consult with our color experts – trust us on this one!

How to do a bleach bath:

1. Mix equal parts bleach powder, developer (20 or lower), and shampoo

2. Apply to towel-dried, damp hair, making sure it's evenly distributed

3. Process for 10-15 minutes, checking every 2-5 minutes (set those phone timers!)

4. Rinse thoroughly with warm water, then shampoo to get every last bit of bleach out

5. Follow up with a hydrating hair mask because your hair just went through it

Hair Color Remover: The Less Scary Option

Purple Madness fading to platinum blonde

This method is like the middle child – less risky than bleach but more effective than just shampooing. 

Hair color removers are specifically designed to break down dye, but make sure you're using the right one for your hair type (semi-permanent vs. permanent makes a difference!). 

Always follow those instructions like they're gospel, and don't skip the hydrating serum afterward.

Follow the Color Wheel to Cover Purple: The Safe Route

Sometimes the easiest solution is the best one! If you want to avoid damage and aren't married to a specific color, just go darker or play with neighboring shades. 

Black will completely cover purple, while blues and reds can help you transition to something totally new. 

This is hands down the safest, least damaging, and most user-friendly way to move on from your purple hair phase.

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.

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.

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.
