Arctic Fox Semi-Permanent Hair Dye, Vegan & Cruelty-Free, Ammonia-Free, Conditioning Color Cream for All Hair Types, Long Lasting, Poseidon Blue, 4 Fl Oz

First, understand this is probably a full day process if you want electric blue. I assume you either have naturally white hair, or you have already bleached the heck out of it. Here’s the process: - Wash your hair the day before & don’t put product in it - Put ample color blocking jelly (I use aquaphor) on your whole face, your ears, your neck, your shoulders, your arms, your friends… anything that might touch the dye. Don’t put it on your temples because sideburns are a beast. - Wear real rubber gloves, not hair dye gloves or latex gloves. - Work in sections, starting at the most visible places first. Your bangs, your part, and the back of your head (I have forgotten it and it was embarrassing) - Pause to wonder why you’re doing this. Is this worth it? Too late. Carry on. - Put extra coloring around these high visibility areas and, with your fingers, work it through the hair sections thoroughly. Don’t miss your sideburns. - Move on to the rest of your hair, working in sections so you can track where you are. Use clips. Use rubber bands. Use anything. Run out of clips. Find your binder clips from the office. So many sections. These chips don’t need a clip. How did you get so much hair? - Panic every time you drip dye on the sink. Wipe it up quickly. Put toothpaste on it if it left a mark. No, I’m not kidding. - Once you have fully colored your hair (probably with 8 full oz), slowly and painfully work the dye through every section of your hair. The thing is, this is important. It feels like overkill, but it is not. If you don’t do this, you’ll end up with weird and blotchy dye, and that isn’t good. You’re going for a nice, natural blue, just like you were born with. - Wonder again, “is this worth it?” Too late for this. Now you’re an hour into a six hour commitment. No turning back now. Also, yes, it’s worth it. Because you’re an icon. - Put your hair into a bun or two. Now, we are going to bake your head, and we’re going to use your own troubled thoughts as fuel. Did I forget to mention this is therapy? I meant to. - Find a shower cap. Put it over your weird, Medusa-themed mass. - Find a towel you don’t like. Perhaps the one you used last time. We’ll call him Mark. Mark and you are spending the day together. Wrap Mark around your shower-capped head with the tension of Mike Pence in the presence of a non-wife female. The point is to contain heat, like Mike Pence does, but perhaps less toxically (this is Arctic Fox, after all). - Some people like to add extra heat, but I find that my own bonnet of bees provides enough raw friction to sufficiently heat the situation. I should mention it is summer in Nevada. Our existence is the surface of the sun - I hang out with Mark in my head sauna for a minimum of FOUR HOURS, but usually more like six. I clean, I dance, I watch TV, I sort pens, I fold clothes. I write Amazon reviews. We all have hobbies right? - I don’t know your life, but if you can, sleep in it. - Rinse in a sink you don’t like (the laundry room sink is my go-to), USING YOUR RUBBER GLOVES, and use THE COLDEST WATER YOU CAN. People say we aren’t tough, but my dear, you and I are NAILS WITH NAILS. We bleed for days and don’t die… every month! No one is tougher than we are. Valkyries are our sisters. Cold water. Until it runs clear. Don’t miss your sideburns and behind your ears. - I usually am about to die at this point. I’m not gonna lie. It’s a process. It’s spiritual, it’s mental, and it’s physical. So I find Mark’s cousin Stacie and wrap her around my head and go to bed. You do you. If you have to shower (at this point, all that aquaphor has made you either so soft or so slimy), wear rubber gloves. You may dye your shower. I have no advice except toothpaste. (Someday, I’ll have to tell you about the time I stayed in a Berlin hotel and when I showered, my hair bled on their fancy porous tile. I got 10 tubes of toothpaste from Aldi and spent all night painfully smearing toothpaste on their light gray tile that looked like it was in a Smurf murder… But when I checked out, it was pristine and totally fine. looks like that someday was today) The color lasts about 3 - 6 weeks and fades quickly if you’re in the sun. Wash your hair as infrequently as you can. Pro tip: get matching fingernail polish because your fingernails might turn blue and blue fingernail polish makes that look intentional. If this seems like “a lot,” or “not possibly worth it,” you don’t understand how good this color is.

I’m really happy with this hair dye! The color turned out bright, vibrant, and exactly like on the box. My hair feels soft, shiny, and healthy after coloring, with no dryness or breakage. The dye is easy to apply, doesn’t run, and the color lasts a long time—even after several washes, it stays vibrant. The scent is mild, not harsh, and the instructions are clear. A great choice for bright, high-quality at-home coloring!

Yup, works on old gen x guys. Nice color.

PROS: - easy to use. Straightforward instructions and nothing special you have to do for it. - smells FANTASTIC. - beautiful color. I was told my hair glowed with the color - no hair damage or breakage I can find CONS: - haircolor rubs off on EVERYTHING (hands, shirt collars, hair brushes, pillows, scrunchies, etc) - color has washed out by the roots after 1 wash so it looks grown out despite having just dyed it a week ago I would consider this a safe dye for my hair because of its safer chemicals and the lack of damage to my hair, but because of that it is not as strong or aggressive. Good for a short term color but not something I would be able to keep up with this product alone.

Ok, so I brought these to see how long my hair would last in color. And mind you my hair was already different colors.( shades of light blue, green, purple, pinks) But I have to say I do love that this blue grab on to my hair and its just fulls rich and vibrant. This is my hair color!

Not sure why all the other Arctic dyes are super vivid but this one is not after like 1-2 washes - It works for about a couple days but seems to wash out pretty fast - I've been doing rainbow bangs and such and literally all the colors are still super bright except the blue keeps fading out really fast.

I am reviewing the Arctic Fox 8oz. Poseidon Blue: It has been over a week since I used this hair color. It stains like crazy...wet or dry. Believe the other reviews on both Amazon and internet bloggers/YouTube influencers. It doesn't just transfer color a little...it stains A LOT and will stain everything you come near. I didn't even color my whole head, just some underlying highlights. It has repeatedly turned my manicure blue. I bleach it off, but the blue comes back within an hour because I am constantly and subconsciously running my hands through my hair. So I now have the sapphire touch... turning everything I touch blue, even though I can't see any blue on my skin or fingertips. I've ruined a very expensive Bluetooth mouse, my favorite phone case, a flannel bedding set, my Apple Watch sports band, and who knows what's next. The color is beautiful and it did not damage my hair, but I fear that by the time this hair color stops leaking, I'll have suffered at least $500 in damage to items that I touch a lot. I have even tried shampooing my hair 5 times per shower for a week straight; which caused the color to fade unevenly (it was mostly vibrant with just a few areas of fading), but still transferred to my hands and all that I touched. Ultimately, I had to chemically strip it, which chemical does a great job at removing the color, but I fear using it too often will ultimately damage my hair. The whole point is to have a color that fades gently over time, without damaging anything --- right? This $12 home hair treatment is just not worth this much financial loss. I prefer to use jerome russell Punky Color, Atlantic Blue It does not transfer color after the first rinse, although you will see your shower water change color when shampooing. On a side note, there really is no reason to damage any more expensive bath towels. Good quality towels are not cheap and if you are a young adult playing with hair color in your parents' house, please do not destroy your mother's towels. I recommend that, if you are going to use this product or any other hair treatment product, you buy a smock to protect your clothes and skin, rather than destroy a good towel. I bought this 2 pack of Hair Salon Nylon Capes with Snap Closure for just $11.09 with same-day Prime shipping and these Plastic Shower Caps for just $6.97. A quality bath towel can cost upwards of $25.00 each (if not more). Math does not lie, you will get more repeated uses out of these two products for less than $20.00 than you will get ruining every towel you own.

Combined this blue with the purple and they produced a striking purple that was almost metallic! I love this color and want a dress or gown in it. I will have fun wearing my Bohemian skirts, dresses, and jewelry with purple hair!

Faces away quickly

Lo recomiendo por completo, su costo se ve reflejado en desde el hecho de que no hay maltrato animal desde su fabricación, que sus ingredientes no dañan el cabello y que ademas dejan tu cabello con un color brillante, suave y aroma delicioso. Para aplicarlo solo basta seguir las instrucciones. En cuanto a tiempo que se mantiene el color, todo dependera de los cuidados que tengas con tu cabello, en mi caso con un buen color me duro 3 semanas cerca del mes. Aun sin retocar, no he podido deslavar por completo para aplicar un nuevo color.

Al principio creí que era muy caro, pero viendo la calidad, vale mucho la pena. Es muy cremoso, huele muy rico y deja el cabello súper suave y no sale el agua toda azul cada que te bañas, el color se ha mantenido y no luce tan deslavado como con otros tintes que me he aplicado. Te hidrata un buen el cabello y sólo basta con ponerte vaselina, en la línea del cabello, para evitar quedar toda manchada.

Muy buena marca, tinte duradero y con un aroma delicioso, sin contar el hecho de que es vegano.

Me gusta muchísimo el tono y que si pigmenta, pero se cae rápido con las lavadas. Prefiero mío veces este al manic panic.
