    Dark Hair with Pops of Blue: Bold & Trendy Style

    Dark Hair with Pops of Blue: Bold & Trendy Style

    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:

    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!"


    Celebrities with Brown Hair and Blue Highlights

    Need some extra convincing to take the plunge into dark hair with blue highlights? Look no further than Hollywood's elite for major inspiration. From subtle blue peekaboos to bold aquamarine ombre’s, these A-listers have proven that the combination of rich brown locks and cool blue accents creates a look that's both sophisticated and edgy. 


    Their red carpet appearances showcase how this striking color combo can enhance your natural beauty while adding that perfect touch of unexpected glamour.


    Kylie Jenner Dark Brown and Blue Ombré Hair

    Kylie Jenner broke the internet (again) when she rocked that jaw-dropping dark-to-aquamarine blue ombre at NYFW, cementing her status as a total hair chameleon. The beauty queen's bold look had fans rushing to their stylists for those dreamy ocean-inspired vibes, showing us all how to have serious fun with our locks!


    Megan Thee Stallion Color Block Blue Space Buns

    Meg Thee Stallion served major hair goals when she stunned fans with her playful blue color block hair styled in the cutest space buns imaginable. The hot girl coach proved she's truly in a league of her own, pairing her rich dark base with electric blue and icy platinum sections that perfectly framed her face and added that signature Hottie energy to her already iconic look!


    Bella Thorne Dark Roots with Blue Hair

    Bella Thorne took the bold hair game to a whole new level with her sultry dark roots melting into electric blue lengths that had everyone doing a double-take. The former Disney star turned indie queen showed us exactly how to rock this edgy-meets-artsy vibe, proving that blue hair isn't just a trend—it's a total mood when you want to express your wild side while still keeping things seriously chic!

The multi-talented queen's perfect pop of electric blue added just the right amount of playful edge to her sophisticated look, giving us all the inspiration we need to spice up our own hair journey with a splash of bold color!


    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.

    Billie Eilish Green Hair: How to Recreate the Look

    Billie Eilish Green Hair: How to Recreate the Look

    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.


    Only lighten the top section where you want the green to go. Aim for a pale yellow base, this will make your green absolutely electric!


    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.

    How to Get the Cherry Hair That's Taking Over 2025 – A Step-by-Step Guide with Wrath 🍒

    How to Get the Cherry Hair That's Taking Over 2025 – A Step-by-Step Guide with Wrath 🍒

    @stellacini covered up faded turquoise with a mix of Wrath and Poison for this custom cherry shade

    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!
