    Color Spotlight: Frosé Hair Dye

    Color Spotlight: Frosé Hair Dye

    Baby pink hair has been a trendsetter for as long as we can remember, if you’ve been looking for a true pastel pink, we got it on tap! Our baby pink pastel hair dye, FrosĂ© is the sweetest hue! Her soft, true pink tones are perfect for dipping your toe into the world of vivids with a non-committal pink that’ll still turn heads. 


    FrosĂ© is much more of a true pink compared to some of our other pink tones. If you’ve worked with diluted Virgin Pink or Electric Paradise, you know that these colors have a slight  magenta/fuchsia and coral/peachy undertone respectively. But FrosĂ© is right in the middle of the spectrum between the two, and doesn’t lean too strongly into either the cool or warm range! She looks stunning on warm AND neutral undertones, and eases any lucky head of hair into the world of color with stunning hues that make you want to pour her up as much as you can. 


    Coloring with Frosé

    Everyone wants to go pastel - especially baby pink pastel. But getting there can be slightly trickier than it seems! When it comes to FrosĂ© (and any pastel) your base is everything, and we mean EVERYTHING. You MUST start with a clean, platinum base for the true baby pink you’re looking for and any other base color will yield different results, or not results at all. If you have had a brighter color and are looking to transition to FrosĂ©, you’ll need to completely remove your color with a color remover and make sure your base is clean before splashing on FrosĂ© and expecting the baby pink of your dreams. That being said, FrosĂ© is a true pink and if you’re ready for the upkeep, you can enjoy the dreamiest pink head of hair as long as you’d like! 


    Level Up: Frosé on Different Hair Levels

    FrosĂ© is the baby pink stunner in our pastel lineup, so you’ll need a platinum base to get the full effect! On a level 8 blonde, FrosĂ© hair dye will give a dusty rose, while level 7 blondes will see a darker, smokier rose - both are stunning. If you want a barely-there pastel and are searching for just a hint of pink, start with level 10 platinum hair and dilute with Arctic Mist Diluter as needed. Don’t forget to do a trusted strand test so you can be sure that your hair is at the level needed for that perfect baby pink. 👑

    Get Faded: How Frosé Fades

    Since FrosĂ© is a pastel stunner, consistent maintenance and upkeep is a must to keep that baby pink hue look its best. This hair dye tends to fade quicker than some of our other vivids, which is very common when it comes to pastel hair dye. You’ll want to keep a bottle on hand for frequent touch ups, and make sure your base color is a level 10 for best results. Luckily, our DIY friendly formula makes it easier than ever to add color to your conditioner, or do a quick touch up session in the comfort of your own home! On the other hand, if you’re looking for a quick pink blush to those locks that’ll fade out beautifully - FrosĂ© is your girl.

    Frosé Mixology: Customizing the Baby Pink Pastel

    Like our entire semi-permanent hair dye lineup, FrosĂ© is easy to customize and can make a STUNNING mix with other pinks, and almost any other AF hair color! Since FrosĂ© is a pastel hair dye and is naturally lighter than our other pinks, she makes an excellent addition to custom mixes, but keep in mind that if you’re looking for the true baby pink, she shines on her own. Let’s dive into some custom mixes with our fav pink pastel! 

    Barbie Dreamhouse

    Frosé and Electric Paradise

    Start with a level 10 base and mix up a 50/50 ratio of FrosĂ© hair dye and Electric Paradise hair dye! Electric Paradise is UV reactive, so this mix will have a slight tint of her glowing properties, but not too overpowering. It’s the pink of our collective Barbie DREAMS. 

    Rusty Pink

    Frosé and Poison

    This one’s a head turner! This mix needs a platinum base. Start with two parts FrosĂ© hair dye to one part Poison hair dye and you get this bright, coral, rusted pink. She’s unique enough to turn heads, but also falls perfectly in the range of the peachy pink that’s totally taking over 2024. 

    Hot, HOT Pink

    Frosé and Virgin Pink

    Virgin Pink hair dye is at the top of the charts year after year, and when you add FrosĂ© into the mix you get this vibrant hot pink that will breathe energy into your strands. On a level 10 base, go for a 50/50 ratio of Virgin Pink and FrosĂ©, and whew! This mix is definitely one for our bold babes, but you’ll want to pour it on a light base to get the true, HOT pink! 

    Bubblegum Pink

    Frosé and Wrath

    We can just hear the bubblegum pop when we look at this mix. Sassy, flirty, and the life of the party, bring this mix to life on a level 10 base with two parts Frosé hair dye to one part Wrath hair dye. Who knew our red stunner with our baby pink pastel could create such an electrifying mix!?

    Mauvelous Rose

    Frosé and Ritual

    Smoky, lustrous, and magical. Sounds about right? On level 10 hair, start with a base of FrosĂ© hair color then add just a drop of Ritual hair dye (or more if needed). Don’t forget to strand test before you woo anyone and everyone with that magical head of hair!

    Frosé on You

    We LOVE seeing our Fox Fam proudly rock their colors, and Frosé is no exception!

    Color Spotlight: Virgin Pink Hair Dye

    Color Spotlight: Virgin Pink Hair Dye

    She’s an icon, she is the moment and she IS a legend. Virgin Pink hair dye is one of our most iconic (and most popular) dyes and we absolutely understand why. It's not just her name that gets her ALL the attention. This true, hot pink hue stands out among the rest of the AF hair color rainbow and is packed as f*ck with rich pigment to ensure that you get great color payoff no matter your hair level. 


    Plus, you already know that with any Arctic Fox hair dye, you’re not only getting the promise of a high-performing dye that packs a punch, but you’re also getting a vegan, cruelty-free, DIY friendly and ultra-conditioning formula to ensure your hair is left shiny and nourished post dye sesh.

    Level Up: So
 what level do I have to be to use Virgin Pink?

    No matter if you're in your platinum era or rocking your natural brunette, Virgin Pink comes READY to give you everything from a bold pink to a deep magenta depending on your base. If you’re already at a level between 8-10 you can expect a true hot pink color payoff, while hair levels 4-7 can expect varying shades of magenta. Remember that the darker your hair is, the darker Virgin Pink will appear on your strands, or in some cases, Virgin Pink may even appear as a fuschia tint in the sunlight (absolutely gorg if you ask us).

    Tone It Down: Virgin Pink is a bit too bright for me. Is there a way I can customize its color payoff?

    We’ve got just the trick for that! Enter Arctic Mist Diluter, your go-to diluter for customizing the intensity of our dyes. We created our dyes to be as pigmented as possible, so when it came to our diluter we formulated it specifically to pair with our dyes and leave you with the best and most consistent color results (because no one has time for that patchy BS). 

    In a bowl, start off with a generous amount of Arctic Mist Diluter and start adding in small amounts of Virgin Pink hair dye, mixing intermittently until you have your desired shade. Keep in mind that the more you dilute your shade, the lighter your starting base will need to be to ensure that the color shows through on your hair. It’s basically the same advice we give when you’re looking to go pastel. 

    Getting Faded: But how does Virgin Pink hair dye fade?

    Short answer? Like a dream. But we’ll give you the rundown. Over time, Virgin Pink hair color fades into a lighter version of itself turning into the prettiest pastel pink hair color before fading away all together on lighter starting bases. We literally have Foxes dying their hair Virgin Pink just to get back to their faded shade, and you can see why. We never fear the fade, Fam.

    Virgin Mixology: What can I mix Virgin Pink hair dye with?

    TBH the better question is, what can’t you mix her with?

    Due to Virgin Pink’s deep and vibrant hues, she mixes well with almost all of our hair color shades. Mix Virgin Pink hair dye with our blue hair dyes to get purple, mix her with our purple hair dyes to find deep magenta and violet tones, mix her with our yellow hair dyes to nail an orange or peach tone, or lean into the core color and mix Virgin Pink with other red and pink hair dyes to get a customized rosy tone. 

    Be wary of mixing Virgin Pink with any green hair dyes. Color theory 101: pinks and greens oppose each other on the color wheel, so if you’re not careful mixing Virgin pink with some greens could become a grey color or give a muddy result when mixed together.  BUT, if you mix Virgin Pink with a lighter and more yellow based green like Neverland or Space Cowgirl, it can yield some seriously gorgeous results (see proof below). Just be sure to mix a small sample batch and conduct a strand test when mixing to ensure you're getting the results you want! Here are a few of our favorite Virgin Pink concoctions.

    Rosy Copper

    This is a mix best suited if your hair is a level 7-10. To recreate this stunner, start with a base of Space Cowgirl and slowly add in dollops of Virgin Pink until you achieve this jaw dropping rosy copper shade.

    #AFprotip: Add in some Arctic Mist diluter to pastelize this shade to get more of a peach shift.

    You’re Turning Violet, Violet

    For this bold and smokey violet hue, start with a base of Arctic Mist Diluter. Then, add in a dollop of Virgin Pink and mix in just a few drops of Transylvania to help darken and tone down Virgin Pink’s fuschia undertones. This custom mix is best suited for levels 7-10, but for darker bases you can achieve a deeper violet by using less diluter.

    Peaches n’ Cream

    We’re about to take a bleach bath for this one. This shade is an absolute showstopper and is totally on trend this year. If you’re looking to best match your hair to Pantone’s color of the year, Peach Fuzz, this is just the mix for you. Start with a base of Arctic Mist diluter, then add in a few drops of Neon Moon followed by just a drop of Virgin Pink to recreate this perfect peach look.

    Covering Up With Virgin Pink: Will she cover up my current color?

    Short answer, yes. But you'll have to answer “YES!” to the following questions first:

    • Is your hair halfway to completely faded?
    • Have you consulted the color wheel to ensure your results will be a color you’re happy with?

    If you answered yes, you’re ready to move ahead with the transition! Again, we always recommend a strand test before going for a full color cover up, but because Virgin Pink hair dye is highly pigmented, it should cover most highly faded colors with ease. If you’re feeling a little nervous about making the leap, email our color specialists a picture of your starting hair color for custom color advice. support@arcticfoxusa.com

    Virgin Pink is a Fox Fam favorite for a reason. It's bold, it's bright and it feels (and smells) amazing. Whether you're looking to stay true to its vivid pink hue or create your own custom color recipe, Virgin Pink hair dye is an incredibly versatile shade to play around with. When you decide to say EFF IT and finally take the plunge on this bright pink, don’t forget to tag us in your selfies and videos on Instagram and TikTok so we can hype you UP, because you deserve it.

    Color Spotlight: Purple AF Hair Dye

    Color Spotlight: Purple AF Hair Dye

    If you’ve ever tried our Purple AF hair dye before, you know she is the QUEEN of the AF hair color rainbow 🌈 Reigning high as our best selling hair dye, there’s no doubt why she’s held the crown for so long! đŸ„‡đŸ‘‘ You may be asking yourself, “soo who is she”? If you haven’t met her yet, it’s truly an HONOR to introduce you! 


    💜 Purple AF is a beautiful deep, yet vibrant purple hair color. While it looks relatively dark, it will still show up as an extremely vivid, intense purple hair color on a lightened base. Hair level should be at least a 7 if you’re looking the brightest and boldest purple. However, Purple AF hair color on a darker base will still achieve a visible purple tint (especially in the sunlight ☀ because she definitely falls in the range of vivid hair dyes)! In fact, Purple AF is one of our best hair dye options for tinting unbleached hair. Let us show you what we mean
 

    Purple AF on a lightened base is definitely giving
 ‘Grape Goddess’ đŸ€€đŸ‡

    As you may notice, Purple AF hair dye will give a hint of a dark purple hue to a brunette base. It can even tint medium or dark brown hair with more of a deep eggplant or burgundy hue. Click here to watch this fox transform her brunette base into a deep purple!

    If you’re not sure what hair level you are, take a glance below for a hair level chart! 👇

    Levels 6-8 may be tricky to gauge what colors would appear best, so we pulled our favorite shades for level 6-8 hair for you here!

    Now that you’ve officially met Purple AF, let’s just run through some other questions you may have about why this is quite literally the best purple hair color on the market.

    What’s So Special About Purple AF? 

    • Our colorful collection of semi-permanent hair dyes are special in their own way, but something they ALL have in common is the deeply hydrating formula with zero harsh chemicals, leaving your hair feeling totally soft post-dye. 
    • Did we mention that delicious grape scent? Yep, we know our Foxes love to change it up frequently, so we made sure that our dyes would smell delicious just for you. We love using Purple AF and getting whiffs of grape because it feels like we’re completely immersed in purple grape glory. 
    • Purple AF was one of the very first colors that launched Arctic Fox and it has been a best seller ever since. This color is SO versatile as it can cover several hair bases, create stunning mixes and melts, used as a toner (what?!), has a gorgeous fade, and is highly pigmented. She makes our list of “Best Colors for Unbleached Hair,” and “Best Shades for First Time Dyers,” plus we’ll show you some of the magical mixes she can make.
    • We talk a lot about trends that come and go each season, but one thing remains true - Purple AF is timeless. This color is so gorgeous she’s in a league of her own and truly never goes out of style, especially with those violet undertones. We’ve seen some Foxes who have adopted Purple AF as their very own signature color and we get it, we live and dye by purple too. 
    • Purple AF sits just between cool and warm tones on the color wheel. Because of those violet undertones, her complementary color is yellow which is why Purple AF hair dye can also be used to help tone. 

    Let’s Get Faded With Purple AF

    Like we said, her fade is GORGEOUS. Our purples are formulated to fade in more of a pink range over time (and then eventually silver on platinum hair). However, a true purple like Purple AF on a platinum base can also fade 
 You guessed it, PURPLE!  It’s important to note that the fade out depends highly on your hair level and undertones, so be certain to factor it all in and perform a handy dandy strand test!

    Practically Purple Perfection

    Purple AF is practically flawless, BUT if you’re not paying attention to the color wheel, fading, hair health or hair levels, it might not achieve your dream shade. Maybe Purple AF turned out a bit too dark for your taste? Try washing your hair in warm water to help speed up the fade, or use some Purple AF hair color with Arctic Mist Diluter for your next application to achieve a more medium purple result! 😌 Arctic Mist Diluter and Purple AF is one of the most gorgeous mixes you can make.

    you add more and more Arctic Mist Diluter. (ex: Far right is a base of Arctic Mist Diluter and just a drop or two of Purple AF) đŸ’œđŸ€

    Purple AF As a Cover Up

    Purple AF is a go-to when we’re looking to cover up another hair color. We love to paint over any pinks, greens and blues using Purple AF. Keep in mind, painting over blue will get you more of a burgundy depending on how faded it is! Our personal favorite is the way Purple AF covers Virgin Pink! đŸ€©

    Like .. c’mon! đŸ’•â©đŸ’œ

    Purple AF Loves Our Gray Haired Foxes

    We get this question a TON and our gray-haired foxes truly love Purple AF. Since gray hair tends to be more coarse and the hair follicles create less oil, it does make it harder for the color to stick. However, we’ve seen a lot of success with customers using our more pigmented shades for grays, to achieve the perfect tint of color! 

    🎹Purple AF Hair Dye Custom Mixes 🎹

    Now for the fun part! If you’re a DIY-expert and custom color fanatic like us, Purple AF is a must-have! She can be used to create some of the most gorgeous and unexpected color mixes. 

    Let’s jump in! đŸŠâ€â™€ïž

    Midnight Blue

    This is one of our most requested Fox Fam mixes and of course Purple AF is part of the recipe. Start off with level 10 hair and mix together 1/2 ratio of Aquamarine Hair Dye + 1/2 Purple AF Hair Dye. The amount you use is going to depend on your hair length, but that’s your ratio to get this deep, gorgeous blue. If you’re looking to achieve a cooler blue hue, you’ll want to add just a little more Aquamarine hair dye!đŸŒ€đŸ«

    Fiery Fuschia

    Starting with level 10 hair, you’ll want to start off with FrosĂ© hair dye in your mixing bowl. Add a drop of Purple AF hair dye and a drop of Ritual hair dye. Mix it all together and perform a strand test to be sure you’re getting this electric, yet soft purple color! âšĄïžđŸŠ„

    Fiery Cowboy Copper

    One of the HOTTEST colors to date. Almost every Fox we know has asked for this mix and it’s true, Purple AF is needed to nail it. This mix works on hair levels 8-10 and starts with Ginger Flare hair dye. Starting with a base of Ginger Flare, add a drop or two of Purple AF hair dye to get this highly sought after deep auburn mix! đŸŒ…đŸ„•

    Plum Wine

    To get this stunning plum shade, you’ll want to start with a base level 10. Starting with a base of Wrath hair color, you’ll want to add a drop or two of Purple AF hair color until you get the perfect deep warm red! đŸ“đŸ·This stunning mix could work for hair levels slightly lower than 10 as well since Wrath and Purple AF are two of our most pigmented dyes. 

    Mystical Purple

    At first glance, this color looks almost unreal but we promise you can have her all to yourself. Start off with pre-lightened hair to a level 10. Your base is going to be Frosù hair dye, and you’ll add a drop of the not-so-secret ingredient, Purple AF to achieve this eye-popping amethyst purple! 🔼

    @kunailuv is rocking the Ginger Spice Mix! 🍊🐅

    ✹ Purple AF’s Versatility ✹  

    ✹ In general, purple is a very versatile color simply because it’s a combination of warm and cool tones, made with red and blue. Just about ANY color or mix can include Purple AF for added depth. 

    ✹ Feel free to leave the dye on for an hour
 or a few 😉 Our formula is conditioning and non-damaging, so it’s like putting on a hair mask! Plus, this allows the colors to saturate longer to pull more pigment. Compromising color and hair health is never a struggle when you’re using Arctic Fox hair dyes! đŸ™…â€â™€ïžđŸ’§

    ✹ If you’re coloring your hair blue and it appears teal due to some yellow undertones, just add some Purple AF to cancel out the yellow and give you a truer blue shade! We told you, she’s magic. 

    ✹ Love blue hair but hate a green fade? Add in a touch of Purple AF to prevent a green fade, violá! 

    ✹ Brassy/yellow tones in your hair when you were aiming for ashy blonde? Add a drop or two of Purple AF and Poseidon to your shampoo and conditioner for a DIY purple shampoo with a light toning effect.

    OH, and if you’re looking for a way to truly tone your hair, Purple AF can do that too! 💅 

    In a bowl of Arctic Mist, mix a few drops of Poseidon and Purple AF for a DIY hair toner!

    Sooo what can’t she do?? Purple AF hair dye is our most popular color for a reason, Fox Fam! Let us know your favorite way to use this queen of color in the comments and as always, let us know if you have any questions! Stay colorful, Fox Fam! đŸŒˆâœšđŸ’•đŸ€—

    How to Recreate the 2024 Color of the Year with Arctic Fox Hair Dye

    How to Recreate the 2024 Color of the Year with Arctic Fox Hair Dye

    While we say goodbye to another year, one of the most anticipated things about the year ahead is Pantone’s Color of the Year announcement and how it applies to what’s happening around the globe. Did you know Pantone first started their Color of the Year program in 1999? For the last 25 years, the team at Pantone has found a way to visualize the current state of the world through color, something our Fox Fam can really get behind!

    Before we look ahead, we thought it would be fun to look back one last time. We spent all of 2023 celebrating our 10th anniversary, so before moving into the next decade of AF we’re time traveling to see how Pantone encompassed the last 10 years in terms of color and why. SO many of these colors are still some of the Fox Fam’s favorite shades to play with!

    2013 - Emerald, a hue that enhances a sense of well-being further by inspiring insight as well as promoting balance and harmony.

    2014 - Radiant Orchid is still a custom hair dye mix that we love to see and according to Pantone it’s “expressive and exotic blooming with confidence and warmth.” 

    2015 - Marsala became a favorite in the fashion and beauty world because of its versatility being flattering on just about everyone, dramatic and grounding, and just a gorgeous color that enriches our minds, bodies and souls.
    2016 - Rose Quartz and Serenity, a softer take on color as Pantone blended two shades for the first time with colors that “psychologically fulfilled yearning for reassurance and security; a color combination that challenged traditional perceptions of color association” (hello split dye).
    2017 - Greenery, nature’s neutral and symbol of new beginnings. We can never get enough green, honestly. 
    2018 - Ultraviolet, one of our personal favorites as a color that communicates originality, ingenuity, and visionary thinking that points us toward the future. Complex and contemplative, Ultra Violet suggests the mysteries of the cosmos, the intrigue of what lies ahead, and the discoveries beyond where we are now. We know why our Fox Fam makes our deep purples a best seller each year. 
    2019 - Living Coral was an animating and life-affirming color with a golden undertone that energizes and enlivens with a softer edge. 
    2020 - Classic Blue, a color we all needed at the time to suggest reassurance and our desire for a dependable and stable foundation, imprinted into our psyches as a restful color, bringing a sense of peace and tranquility.  
    2021 - Illuminating and Ultimate Gray, a marriage of two independent colors conveying a message of strength and hopefulness, enduring and uplifting, something we all needed to feel in a post-pandemic world.   
    2022 - Very Peri, a color to help us embrace an altered landscape of possibilities, opening us up to a new vision as we rewrite our lives. Something that resonates with our Periwinkle lovers.   
    2023 - Viva Magenta, a shade rooted in nature and expressive of a new signal of strength, brave and fearless, promoting joy and optimism, powerful and empowering. We talked about why this was so fitting for our Fox Fam here! 

    That brings us to 2024
. We say it every year, but it feels like the folks at Pantone are reading our minds, or maybe, we just know what we’re talking about when it comes to color too 😀The 2024 Color of the year is PEACH FUZZ! According to Pantone, “Peach Fuzz is a heartfelt hue bringing a feeling of kindness and tenderness, communicating a message of caring and sharing, community and collaboration. A warm and cozy shade highlighting our desire for togetherness with others or for enjoying a moment of stillness and the feeling of sanctuary.” As a brand who puts our community first, we could not love this more. 

    Peach Fuzz sits between pink and orange on the color spectrum, and we’ve already been dreaming of ways for you to give this a try in 2024. We fully expect this color to be EVERYWHERE in the spring. 

    If you’re looking to nail “Peach Fuzz,” you’ll want Sunset Orange Hair Dye and our Arctic Mist Diluter. If you’re already at a level 10 for your base color, use Arctic Mist Diluter the heck out of Sunset Orange until the color appears as warm and fuzzy as you’d like. Of course, perform a strand test FIRST to be sure you’re peachy keen! 


    Faded Sunset Orange 

    For a more pinky peach hue, take your diluted Sunset Orange and mix her with Frose or Electric Paradise Hair Color, depending on how pink you want to take your peach. 

    @siren.style in Sunset Orange and Electric Paradise 

    For a darker take on the Color of the Year, start out with Cosmic Sunshine hair dye, add a dollop of Frose hair dye and a few drops of Sunset Orange.

    @sheaella in Cosmic Sunshine, Frosé, and a few drops of Sunset Orange

    One of our most coveted mixes is this dreamy peach made with equal parts Arctic Mist Diluter and Girls Night hair color plus a dollop of Poison!

    How to Dye Your Hair Red

    How to Dye Your Hair Red

    @gontscharowaa in Ginger Flare


    Thinking about taking the big leap this summer and dyeing your hair red? Red is a very symbolic color in many cultures representing life, health, war, danger, and even love. It is considered to be a statement hair color choice. So what exactly does dyeing your hair red entail? Let’s chat on a need to know basis!

    Red Hair Maintenance 

    The common problem that seems to come up with red hair is that it takes a lot of time, money, and effort to maintain. It’s not as tricky as it seems. A good hair trick is to add some of your hair dye, (Arctic Fox Hair Color Wrath is always a good choice) into your conditioner to give your hair a quick pick me up every time you wash your hair. You also will want to reduce how often you wash your hair every week. Keep water at a warm temperature, not too hot or cold, to prevent hair damage. Add these small changes to your wash routine to maintain the vibrancy of that fiery head of red hair!

    @bhaddmakeuphabityt in Poison

    Get Bright Red Hair 

    So what steps can you take to achieve that vivacious bold red hair? You’re in luck if you’ve never dyed your hair before. Going bright red is very possible without bleaching your hair when you are dyeing virgin hair. If your natural virgin hair is extremely dark just opt for a higher developer! Now, color won’t lift color! So if you’ve recently dyed your hair any pastels or purples prepare to have to go through a process. You will most likely have to use a color remover to help get some of that pastel color off. You might be able to achieve a more bronzy color on your first go. If you’re looking for a super bright look you will need to bleach your hair to lighten it up to create a blank canvas for that hair dye. Opt for Arctic Fox Hair Color in Poison for that ultimate Rihanna red look!

    Tips and Tricks for Redheads

    If you’re a newly red hair goddess and just looking for some advice on being a redhead we’ve definitely got your back! First, use sulfate free shampoo! Sulfate shampoos tend to do more stripping of color than anything else, so steer clear. Harsh UV rays are notorious for fading almost anything, so opt for thoroughly spritzing your hair with UV protectant before basking in the sun! Keep yourself on a retouch schedule. Sometimes we can forget and suddenly our red hair is truly on its last leg. Keeping yourself accountable to retouching will help keep your locks looking fresh.
