    Bad Hair Day? 5 Hairstyles to Rock Your Arctic Fox Hair

    We've all been there. You wake up and your hair is a total disaster. Frizzy, flat, or just plain unruly, it seems like nothing you do can tame it. But don’t worry, even with the craziest hair day, you can still slay your day with a little creativity and the vibrant shades of the AF rainbow. 

    AF hair colors are known for their boldness, vibrancy, and their ability to totally transform any look. Whether you’re rocking a classic black or a neon pink, these hairstyles will help you conquer even the worst hair day. Let’s dive in!

    5 Hairstyles for Bad Hair Days

    1. The Sleek Ponytail

    @bigfatjenna in Electric Paradis

    2. Space Buns

    @hamiltonn_anna in Poison, Virgin Pink, and Electric Paradise

    This playful and fun hairstyle is perfect for hiding unruly hair. Divide your hair into two equal sections and create two high pigtails. Twist each pigtail into a bun and secure it with hair ties or bobby pins. Space buns are a great way to add a touch of whimsy to your look, and your hair color will definitely stand out!

    3. Twin Pigtails

    @wweglamsquad in Poseidon

    This youthful and energetic style is perfect for a bad hair day! Divide your hair into two equal sections and create two high pigtails. You can leave them straight or add a few waves for a more textured look. This is such an easy and fun way to show off your color and push wash day just a little farther out! 

    4. The Half-Up, Half-Down

    @hairpaintedwithlove in Violet Dream, Blue Jean Baby, and diluted Virgin Pink

    This versatile style can be dressed up or down. Gather the top half of your hair and secure it with a hair tie, bobby pins, or some fun hair clips! You can leave the bottom half loose, curl it, or straighten it, depending on your mood. You can even add some tinsel if you’re feeling extra fun ‘n flirty!

    5. Accessorize! 

    @brynnsideout in Girls Night and Sterling

    Sometimes, the simplest solution is the best. Add a bold hat, a stylish scarf, or a pair of statement earrings to distract from your hair - trust us, no one will even notice. And we KNOW your color will complement any accessory you choose.

    Remember, confidence is key! No matter what hairstyle you choose, own it and rock your Arctic Fox hair with pride.

    Color Spotlight: Arctic Mist Diluter☁✚

    Hey Fox Fam! Today I’m spilling ALL of the tea about Arctic Mist Diluter. If you've ever dreamt of rocking those pastel shades or creating your own custom color blend, this little bottle of magic is about to become your new bestie. đŸ˜ŒđŸ€đŸ‘Żâ€â™€ïž

    Imagine this: you've got that perfect shade in mind—maybe it's a soft lavender or a delicate baby blue—but you're not quite sure how to achieve it without ending up with a neon surprise. đŸ˜± Enter Arctic Mist Diluter, the hero of our hair color adventures! đŸ€©

    It’s not necessarily a dye and it’s not a toner
. So what is it?😳

    Well, think of it as the chill pill for your color.🧊💊 Arctic Mist Diluter is a dye base, without pigment added to it. This miracle mix tones down the intensity of our vibrant Arctic Fox shades, giving you the power to customize your color to exactly how you want it! It's like having a palette where you can mix and match until you find your perfect hue. đŸŒˆđŸ„°

    You might be thinking, “Can’t I just use a conditioner that’s already in my shower instead?” but that would be a rookie mistake! 👎🛑 đŸ˜”â€đŸ’« The difference being, conditioners usually have oils or silicone that can prevent the pigment in the dye from sticking correctly to your hair, causing a patchy or faded result.đŸ„Ž NO THANKS! I’ll stick with Arctic Mist Diluter instead. 😅

    Here’s why I love it:

    It’s super easy to use! Just add a few drops to your favorite Arctic Fox shade until you reach the desired level of pastel perfection. 😍 Want a slightly lighter shade? Add a bit more. It’s all about experimenting and having fun, without the fear of ending up with a color catastrophe. So go ahead and embrace your inner artist!đŸ‘©â€đŸŽšÂ 

    And guess what? It’s not just for pastels.😏 You can use Arctic Mist Diluter to create custom shades, tone down a color that turned out bolder than expected, or even just to give your current hue a softer, dreamier vibe.☁✚

    Just remember, the lighter the color, the lighter the hair needs to be in order for the color to show, so make sure your hair is lightened to an appropriate level for your goal shade to get the best results!â˜ïžâšĄ

    Pro Tip: Use our Bleach Please collection to get the perfect starting base!

    Oh, and did I mention it’s vegan and cruelty-free? Yep, Arctic Fox always has our furry friends in mind, so you can feel good about using our products.🐰💕🌿

    Whether you're a seasoned color pro or dipping your toes into the world of DIY vibrant hair for the first time, Arctic Mist Diluter is here to make your life easier and your hair dreams come true. đŸ„ł It’s like having a stylist in a bottle, ready to help you achieve Instagram-worthy locks.đŸ’‡â€â™€ïž

    Girls Night and Periwinkle

    If a split dye isn’t calling your name but you still want to show off two colors at once, a color melt is your move! A color melt is simply starting with one color on the top part of your hair that quite literally melts beautifully as it meets with another color towards the bottom half of your hair! This stunning color melt is Girls Night hair dye and Periwinkle hair dye - and OMG it’s a literal dream. Girls Night and Periwinkle are on the lighter end of our vivid hair dyes, so you absolutely need to start with level 9 hair or lighter!

    Halo

    Virgin and Poison

    Looking to mix it up even more? 👀 Check out halo hair, it’s literally everywhere right now! A halo color placement is one color on your first layer of hair, and a different color on the layers beneath it. It gives a gorgeous peekaboo effect and the styling options are truly endless! This fiery look from @alexajdmakeup was made using Virgin Pink hair dye and Poison hair dye. We love this color combo, especially during the month of February when red and pink hues reign supreme. Lucky for you AF shades are made for creating these daring looks at home! Virgin Pink hair color is a vibrant hot pink and will appear as a magenta tint on brown hair, its most vibrant form comes with pre-lightened hair. Poison hair color has a slight orange undertone that will prevent it from fading to a pink. Poison will give a dark, subtle tint to darker tones of hair but will turn out most vibrantly on hair that is pre-lightened to around a level 8. Give it a go the next time you’re feeling spicy!

    Now that you’re a pro at color combos make sure you tag us on IG @arcticfoxhaircolor if you try out any of these mixes or split dyes. We love to see you explore your inner hairstylist with our DIY friendly hair dye colors!

    Channel your inner ice queen â„ïžđŸ‘ž with a frosty blonde mix.

Experiment with placement techniques like highlights or peekaboos, adding a touch of drama to your holiday hairstyle. I love a Ginger Flare and Violet Dream blend for the perfect cranberry hair color that looks great on multiple hair levels. It's the perfect way to have festive hair without needing to bleach.

     

    If you want to take it one step further, a spicy split dye with a custom ginger mix with Ginger Flare and a drop of Purple AF on one side, and the other side dyed with Phantom Green. The ultimate holiday mix! Two-toned hair is one of my favorite ways to stand out, especially something as bold as a green and red hair combo.

    4. Sterling Winter Magic: A Metallic Touch for Winter Hair ❄☃

    To create these holiday plaid nails!

    Foxology’s Polish line is honestly the best nail polish I have ever used. When I am feeling fancy and want a more elegant design, I will take it with me when I get my nails professionally done - because it lasts SO much longer than most nail polish AND truly doesn’t chip (plus it’s free of 15 common harsh chemicals and vegan, which most professional polish is not!). It’s also a quick-drying polish, unlike other traditional nail polish. If you are anything like me, I always ruin at least one nail every time I am waiting for my nails to fully dry (why does it take forever!?!), but never with Foxology! The brushes are also designed in a way that I can actually paint my nails at home and not get polish on my fingers. I was so excited for this collection to launch and it did not disappoint. I dare you to really stand out this season with a holiday-look, head to toe!

    This holiday season, let your hair steal the spotlight. With Arctic Fox Hair Color's bold and vibrant shades, you can start your own holiday hair trends, and with our Foxology Holiday Collection, you can complete your look to really embrace the season. Spread holiday cheer and stand out with Arctic Fox! 🩊
