And honestly? We totally get it. Green is daring, dimensional, and downright gorgeous when you're feeling it.

But here's the thing: once you're ready to let those green vibes go, it can be one of the most stubborn shades to remove from your hair. Green pigments love to hang around longer than that one friend who won't take the hint at 2 AM. But don't worry bestie, we've got your back! We're breaking down our top 5 ways to get green out of hair, plus some bonus tips to make the process as smooth as possible. Let's dive in! 🌿✨

How to Get Green Out of Hair

Everyone's hair is different and will respond differently to each method we're sharing, so do what feels right for your hair and your vibe! We recommend doing a strand test first and working in a well-ventilated space. And if you get stuck or aren't sure what to do next, don't hesitate to reach out to our color specialists. They're total pros and are here to help you figure it out!

1. Wash Your Hair More Frequently in Warm Water

Okay, this one might sound obvious, but trust us—it's your first line of defense against stubborn green tones. Semi-permanent hair dyes like Arctic Fox gradually fade with each wash, so increasing your shampoo sessions is key to speeding up the process of getting green out of your hair!

Here's the game plan:

• Turn up the temperature! Use warm water (not scalding hot—we're not trying to fry your hair) to help open up the hair cuticle and release those green pigments

• Skip the dry shampoo this week—we know it's tempting, but you'll want to actually wash those locks to get the color moving

• Grab a clarifying shampoo or dandruff shampoo like Head & Shoulders. These bad boys are designed to remove buildup and strip away product, which means they'll work overtime on your hair color too

• Wash your hair 2-3 times more often than usual for faster fading

Pro tip: Follow up with a deep conditioning treatment or hair mask after each wash to keep your strands hydrated and happy. All that extra washing can be drying, so show your hair some TLC!

2. Soak Your Hair While Taking an Epsom Salt Bath

Emerald Fortune fading to blonde

Want to fade your green hair while having the most relaxing evening ever? We've got the perfect solution! Epsom salt isn't just for soothing sore muscles, it's also a secret weapon for fading hair color.

How to make it work:

• Fill your bathtub with warm water and add 1-2 cups of Epsom salt

• Soak in the tub and make sure your hair is fully submerged in the water

• Chill for 15-20 minutes (bring a face mask and make it a whole vibe!)

• Rinse your hair thoroughly and follow up with a moisturizing conditioner

The salt helps break down the dye molecules without harsh chemicals, and you get to relax in the process. It's self-care meets hair care, literally a win-win situation! Just keep in mind this method can be a bit drying, so definitely condition afterward.

3. Take a Dip in Chlorine or Salt Water

Neverland fading to blonde

Here's your excuse to hit the pool or beach! Believe it or not, a swim session can actually help fade your green hair color faster. The chlorine in pool water and the salt in ocean water both work to break down hair dye pigments naturally.

Making waves work for you:

• Go swimming! Whether it's laps at your local pool or catching waves at the beach, let the water do its thing

• The chlorine bonds with the hair dye molecules and helps lift them out

• Saltwater has a similar effect, though it can cause extra dryness

• Bonus: sunshine also helps fade color naturally, so outdoor swimming is doubly effective!

Fair warning: If you're planning to dye your hair soon after, this method is perfect. But just know that both chlorine and salt water can be super drying to your strands. Make sure to use a deep conditioning treatment afterward, our Pool Party Hair Mask was literally made for this! And here's a fun plot twist: while chlorine helps to get green out of the hair, it can also cause green tones in blonde or light hair from mineral buildup. Life's funny like that, right?

4. Vitamin C Hair Mask

Phantom Green fading to blonde

Ready for a DIY hack that actually works? Let's talk about vitamin C—not just for immune support, but for color removal too! The acid in vitamin C (ascorbic acid) is strong enough to break down semi-permanent hair dye, making it one of the most popular at-home methods for fading color.

How to whip up your vitamin C mask:

• Crush 10-15 vitamin C tablets into a fine powder

• Mix the powder with your clarifying shampoo to create a paste—aim for a consistency that's spreadable but not too runny

• Apply the mixture evenly throughout your damp hair, making sure every green strand is coated

• Let it sit for 30-60 minutes (you can cover your hair with a shower cap to prevent dripping)

• Rinse thoroughly with warm water

• Follow up with a deep conditioning treatment or hair mask—this is non-negotiable!

Why it works: The vitamin C creates an acidic environment that helps oxidize the dye molecules, making them easier to wash out. It's gentler than bleach but more effective than just regular shampooing. You might need 2-3 treatments depending on how vibrant your green is, but it's totally worth it!

5. Color Remover

When gentler methods aren't cutting it and you need results ASAP, a commercial color remover is your best friend. These products are specifically formulated to break down artificial color molecules in semi-permanent hair dyes like Arctic Fox.

How to use a color remover:

• Head to your nearest beauty supply store and grab a color remover designed for semi-permanent hair dyes

• Follow the product instructions carefully—most are applied to dry hair for best results

• Process for the recommended time (usually 20-45 minutes, but check your specific product!)

• Rinse thoroughly with lukewarm water

• Always, always, ALWAYS follow up with a deep conditioning treatment

Pro tip: Do a strand test first to see how your hair reacts, and make sure you're in a well-ventilated space when using these products.

Color Theory: The Red Solution to Your Green Situation

Okay, here's where we get a little nerdy (but in the fun way). If you're not ready to completely get green out of your hair but want to cover it up or neutralize it, let's talk about the color wheel! On the color wheel, red and green are opposites—which means red tones can actually cancel out and neutralize green tones. Color theory for the win! 🎨

How to cover green with red:

If you're rocking one of our gorgeous green hair color shades and want to switch things up without stripping all the color, red-based dyes are your perfect transition!

Our top red picks to neutralize green:

• Poison: A classic bright red that'll completely transform your look and knock out lingering green shades like Iris Green or Neverland

• Wrath: A vibrant, intense red with serious staying power—perfect for making a bold statement and covering up green hair colors like Space Cowgirl

• Ritual: A deeper, richer red that's absolutely stunning for fall vibes and covers up dark green shades like Emerald Fortune and Phantom Green

Before applying any red hair dye over green hair, make sure your hair is at least partially faded for the most accurate color results. If your green is super vibrant, you might get a muddy or olive-toned result. But if it's faded to a lighter pastel green or just has lingering undertones, red will neutralize it beautifully!

The process:

1. Let your green fade out a bit using the methods above

2. Choose your shade of red hair dye

3. Apply according to the instructions

4. Enjoy your bold new red hair color without any green peeking through!

FAQs: Your Burning Green Hair Questions Answered

What color cancels out green hair?

Red! On the color wheel, red and green are complementary (opposite) colors, which means they neutralize each other. So if you've got a green hair color you want to get rid of, a red-based dye will help cancel it out and give you a fresh new look!

How can I remove green from my hair?

You've got options, bestie! You can wash your hair more frequently with warm water and clarifying shampoo, soak your hair in an Epsom salt bath, create a DIY vitamin C hair mask, go swimming in chlorine or salt water, or use a commercial color remover. For faster results, try combining a few methods (like clarifying shampoo plus the vitamin C treatment). Just remember to deep condition between treatments to keep your hair healthy!

Does ketchup really remove green tint from hair?

Okay, so this sounds wild, but yes—ketchup can actually help with mild green tints in hair! The red color in ketchup neutralizes green on the color wheel (color theory strikes again!), and the vinegar in it helps remove mineral buildup that can cause green tones. That said, it's not a super reliable solution for deeply dyed green hair or intense green shades. If you're going to try it, slather it on like a hair mask, leave it for 20-30 minutes, and then shampoo it out thoroughly. But honestly? We'd recommend using an actual red dye or one of the methods above for better results.

Will Dawn dish soap take color out of hair?

Yes, Dawn dish soap can strip color from your hair, especially direct dyes like Arctic Fox. Its grease-cutting superpowers work on hair color pigments too, breaking them down and washing them away. BUT—and this is a big but—it's super drying and can be pretty harsh on your strands. Only use it as a last resort, and if you do, follow up immediately with a deep conditioning treatment or hair mask. Don't make it a regular thing, or your hair will be crispier than your personality after a Monday morning meeting.

Final Thoughts: Your Green Hair Journey

There you have it, Fox Fam! Whether you're ready to fade your green hair color completely or just want to transition to a new shade, you've got all the tools you need to make it happen. Remember, semi-permanent hair dyes like Arctic Fox are designed to gradually fade over time, so be patient with the process and give your hair lots of love between treatments.

Green might be one of the more stubborn colors to remove, but with the right approach and a little persistence, you'll be ready for your next hair color adventure in no time. And if you loved the green while it lasted, then that's what matters most! Hair color is all about self-expression and having fun.

@snipfreak used Neon Moon, Phantom Green, and Poseidon

Classic green highlights on jet black hair give off that cool, mysterious energy that makes people do a double-take. It's edgy without trying too hard, and the subtle pops of green add just the right amount of drama.

How to get the green highlights on black hair look

Use a weaving method to section out the pieces of hair you want green with hair clips. Apply bleach to lighten those pieces, wait 10-15 minutes to process, then wash and dry your hair. Apply your chosen shade of green to the lightened sections and wait at least 30 minutes (or go longer for extra saturation). Rinse with cold water and voila—you're rocking black hair with green highlights!

Pro tip: If you already have highlights, skip the bleach and just slap your favorite shade of green on top. Need to freshen up the black sections? Try Transylvania!

2. Black and Green Split Dye Hair

@stevieleigh123 in Space Cowgirl

Split dye is giving fun, cool, weird-but-make-it-fashion energy. Half black, half green—it's bold, it's statement-making, and it's surprisingly easier to pull off than you think.

How to get the black and green split dye look

Create 2 symmetrical sections by making a clean middle part using hair clips. Use bleach to lighten the side you want green, wait 10-15 minutes to process, then wash and dry your hair.

Wait at least 30 minutes (or go longer for extra saturation), then rinse one side at a time with cold water to avoid color mixing. Voila—you're rocking a black and green split dye that's out of this world!

Pro tip: When washing your hair, always use cold water and wash the green side first, then cover it with conditioner before doing the black side to avoid mixing colors.

3. Black Hair with Green Bangs

Green bangs on black hair? Ultimate baddie energy. This look is cool, fun, and seriously eye-catching—plus it's one of the most user-friendly ways to rock black and green hair since you're only working with a small section.

How to get the black hair with green bangs look

Use hair clips to section out your bangs from the rest of your hair. Apply bleach to lighten your fringe, wait 10-15 minutes to process, then wash and dry your hair. Apply your chosen shade of green to your bangs and add Transylvania everywhere else. Wait at least 30 minutes (or go longer for extra saturation), then rinse your bangs first with cold water before rinsing out your black dye to avoid color mixing. Voila—you just made your black hair POP with a green glow!

Pro tip: When washing your hair, always use cold water and wash the green side first, then cover it with conditioner before doing the black side to avoid mixing colors.

How to get the black and green color block look

Use hair clips to section out your green color block. Apply bleach to lighten the green sections, wait 10-15 minutes to process, then wash and dry your hair.

FAQ

What skin tone does green hair look good on?

What highlight color is good for black hair?

Black hair pairs beautifully with so many shades of the rainbow, but we especially love black hair with green highlights!

Does green look good with black hair?

Yes! Green has been paired with black hair on celebrities and in the media since the beginning of time.

Pink is a total vibe, but once you're ready to switch gears, you may be wondering how to do that without using harsh bleach or color removers that could cause further damage to your precious strands. Look no further – your besties at Arctic Fox Hair Color are putting our lab coats on to show you exactly what colors cancel out pink and how to transition out of your pink hair color using the magic of the color wheel!

The Color Wheel: Your Hair Color BFF

Think of the color wheel as your personal hair guru! This rainbow circle isn't just pretty to look at – it's actually the secret weapon for understanding how colors interact with each other. Here's the tea: colors that sit directly opposite each other on the wheel are called "complementary colors," and they literally cancel each other out when mixed.

Pink's sworn enemy? Green! These two are sitting across from each other on the color wheel like that dramatic friend duo we all know. When you apply green-tinted products to pink hair, the green cancels out pink hair, helping you transition to a more neutral base or prep for your next color adventure.

The key to using the color wheel for hair transitions is understanding that you don't always need to go full intensity with the opposite color. Sometimes a diluted version or a gentle toner is all you need to get the job done without going overboard!

What Color Cancels Out Pastel Pink Hair Color

Got that dreamy pastel pink like our gorgeous Frosé shade? Neverland (our pastel green hair color) is your new best friend! This soft, minty green is perfect for gently neutralizing those cotton candy vibes without being too harsh on your hair.

Since pastel pink is already on the lighter side, you won't need anything super intense. Neverland works like a charm to tone down those rosy hues and create a more neutral canvas. Pro tip: always strand test first and chat with our color specialists for personalized guidance!

What Color Cancels Out Hot Pink Hair Color

Rocking a vibrant hot pink like our bold Vi shade? Time to bring in diluted Phantom Green! Hot pink packs more punch than its pastel cousin, so you'll want to use a stronger green to cancel out this shade of pink, but watered down to avoid going full Hulk mode.

The secret sauce here is prep work, babe. Try fading your current color as much as possible first (clarifying shampoo is your friend!), then apply your diluted Phantom Green. Don't skip the strand test and consider reaching out to our color experts for the best game plan!

What Color Cancels Out Magenta Pink Hair Color

That rich, deep magenta pink, like our stunning Virgin Pink, calls for diluted Iris Green. Magenta is basically pink's more sophisticated older sister – it's got those deeper, more complex tones that need a green with some serious depth to match.

Iris Green toned down is perfect for tackling those jewel-toned magentas. Since deeper colors are more stubborn, they fade first, then neutralize. Remember to test a small section and don't hesitate to get advice from our team of color pros!

What Color Cancels Out Neon Pink Hair Color

Neon pink like our Electric Paradise shade? For these super bright, in-your-face pinks, you'll want diluted Space Cowgirl to help bring things back to earth.

Neon colors are the rebels of the hair color world – they're intense, they're bold, and they don't go down without a fight. That's why pre-fading is crucial here. Let that color wash out as much as possible, then work your green magic. Strand testing and expert consultation? Still non-negotiable!

Frequently Asked Questions

What color reverses pink?

Green! Since green sits directly opposite pink on the color wheel, it's the perfect neutralizer for all things rosy.

What color will cover pink hair?

Looking to completely mask your pink hair color instead of neutralizing it? Purple, orange, red, and sometimes blue can work depending on your starting shade and how much it's faded.

What is the hardest color to remove from hair?

Blue, green, and black hair dyes are typically the most stubborn when it comes to removal. They just love to make themselves at home in your hair cuticles!

What color evens out pink?

Green! It's all about that color wheel magic – opposites attract and then cancel each other out.

Ready to Switch Up Your Look?

There you have it, color kings and queens! Whether you're dealing with soft pastel pink or neon pink, there's a green-tinted solution waiting to help you transition to your next hair adventure. The secret ingredients? Patience, proper testing, and maybe some expert backup.

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.

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 hair color 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.

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 hair 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.
