Gather ‘round, Fox Fam – your wish is our command! After so many of you cast your votes in our color poll, we knew we had to deliver. Enter Sorceress, the midnight blue hair dye that’s pure magic. 🪄 Crafted with your mystical style in mind, this enchanting shade is ready to bring out your inner witch and transform your mane into a velvety blue masterpiece. Let’s dive into the spellbinding world of Sorceress and find out what makes it so unique!🤩

Coloring with Sorceress: The Blue of Your Dreams ☁️

So, what sets Sorceress apart from our other blues? It’s all in the undertones! This shade is not just any blue – it’s a deep, midnight hue with hints of purple, perfect for those who crave something bold yet mysterious.🌙 Think of it as the midnight sky, with just a sprinkle of magic woven in. Sorceress is deeper and more mysterious than Poseidon 🌊, with rich purple undertones that give it an enchanting vibe. While Blue Jean Baby 👖 is a cool, smoky denim shade with teal hints, Sorceress brings a bolder, more vibrant energy – perfect for anyone craving a bewitching, full-bodied blue.

As Sorceress fades, you'll notice the blue tones gradually soften, revealing a pale pastel blue-purple. 🎆 Since blue pigments tend to fade faster, the overall effect may shift to a delicate silvery-lavender or light violet over time, giving your hair a dreamy, ethereal look even as it lightens.🔮💫

Level Up: Sorceress on Different Hair Levels 🎨

Ready to see what Sorceress can do? This versatile shade can work its magic on different hair levels, and the results are to dye for:

• On levels 6-7 (medium blonde to light brown), Sorceress shows up as a deep, dark midnight blue that’s moody, captivating, and most visible in sunlight. ✨
• On levels 8+ (light blonde and lighter), expect a vibrant, dimensional blue with purple undertones that pop! 💜 It’s a whole vibe – mysterious, alluring, and totally unique.

Don't know what level you are? Read all about it here.

No matter where your hair falls on the spectrum, Sorceress will leave you with a head-turning, starry-night finish. 🌠

To keep your Sorceress shade vibrant and magical for as long as possible, follow these best practices! 🌟

First, wash your hair with cold water and color-safe products to lock in that rich, midnight blue hue 🌌. Hot water can cause the color to fade faster, so keep it cool! 💦 On those in-between wash days, dry shampoo is your best friend – it’ll help extend your color and keep your locks looking fresh without the need for frequent washes. 🧴✨ For a quick color refresh, just mix a bit of Sorceress with our Resurrected conditioner – it’ll keep your color vibrant and looking fresh. 💙💫

Sorceress is making its debut in our updated packaging – a sleek 5.6 fl oz aluminum tube! ⭐ Not only does this update keep your color fresh and fierce, but it’s also part of our commitment to creating sustainable products.🌍💚 We chose aluminum tubes because they help protect the product from light and air, which means better quality and longer-lasting color for you! This squeezable aluminum tube makes it that much easier to squeeze out every last drop of dye so you can get the most out of your color. Now that’s what we call a win win! 

 Time to Cast Your Spell! 🪄

Now that you’ve got the lowdown on Sorceress, it’s time to summon YOUR inner sorceress and make some hair magic.🔮 Whether you're a longtime Fox Fam member or new to the crew, we want to see your stunning transformations!

Tips for Mixing Like a Pro! 👩‍🔬

• Play with Ratios: Don't be afraid to experiment! Start with a little and add more until you find your perfect potion. 🧪
• Strand Test: Always do a strand test to see how the colors mix and how they look on your hair. You want to ensure it’s a match made in hair heaven! 😇 
• Protect your skin: Avoid staining on your skin by using vaseline on your ears, hairline, and neckline. Use tools like gloves, bowls, and brushes to get the most use out of your dye and prevent unnecessary messes. 🧼
• Condition Like a Queen: Arctic Fox dyes are free of harsh chemicals, but don’t forget to follow up with a great conditioner to keep your locks looking shiny and healthy. 💁‍♀️💖

Hey Fox Fam! Calling all dark and stormy souls! We're shining a spotlight on Transylvania, our deepest, most highly-pigmented black shade. Here's the thing: Transylvania isn't just another black. It's our black sheep of the Arctic Fox family, with its cool, blue undertone to truly set it apart. Transylvania can be slightly tricky to work with due to its undertones and deep, dark color. But when you learn how to get the most out of it, you’ll fall in love and want to use it again, and again! Plus, those blue undertones make it one stop shop to achieve the ebony hair trend that we’ve been seeing everywhere in 2024. 

Unlocking the Shades of Transylvania:

Transylvania will transform any base into the color of your darkest dreams. It shows its darkest, truest colors on hair lightened around a level 7 or higher, but darker bases are easily transformed into deep black.

• True Blue-Black: Want to amp it up? Mix in a touch of Poseidon or dilute Transylvania for a smoky navy masterpiece.
• Natural Black: Craving a classic black? Add a smidge of Sunset Orange to Transylvania. This neutralizes the blue and delivers a warmer, more natural look.

Transylvania's Versatility Goes Beyond Black:

This potent pigment isn't just for black hair dreams. Transylvania works wonders as a mixer:

Smoky Denim

Add a few drops to Arctic Mist Diluter for a light, smoky blue. Adjust the ratio for a deeper navy.

Midnight Blue 

Boost a bowl of Poseidon or Blue Jean Baby with a dollop of Transylvania for rich, deep blues.

Emerald Dreams

Mix equal parts Phantom Green and Aquamarine, then add a touch of Transylvania for a deep, enchanting emerald.

Smoky Turquoise

A bowl of Neverland and a few drops of Transylvania create a mesmerizing smoky turquoise.

Smoky Lilac

Want a touch of smoke with your lilac? Start with a base of Arctic Mist Diluter, add a dollop of Virgin Pink, then tame it with a drop or two of Transylvania.

Taming the Beast (Color Bleeding):

Transylvania's high pigment can sometimes lead to bleeding. Fear not, Fox Fam! Here are some tips:

• Cold Rinse: After dyeing, rinse with cold water until it runs clear. This seals the hair cuticle and minimizes bleeding.
• Conditioner Wash: If color keeps bleeding, try a gentle conditioner-only wash.
• After-Color Cuticle Sealer: For stubborn cases, consider an after-color cuticle sealer.

Secret Hack: Saran wrap your tub or sink to minimize staining when you use Transylvania to bring your dark dreams to life! 💫🖤

Fading with Flair:

Transylvania may fade to teal or green depending on your base color. To achieve a natural fade, add some orange! Orange neutralizes the blue, giving you a more neutral-toned fade. Transitioning colors? Use Purple AF to create a smooth bridge to a new hue.

Gray Goals:

Creating a smoky gray? Mixing Transylvania and Sterling might result in a navy tone. Here's the fix: Add a drop of Sunset Orange for every drop of Transylvania in your Sterling mix. This keeps the gray neutral as you darken it to a charcoal shade.
