How Long Does Arctic Fox Hair Dye Last? [My Experience 2023]

How Long Does Arctic Fox Hair Dye Last?

Let’s cut to the chase – how long does Arctic Fox Hair dye last in reality? I don’t want to spin around the answer – you have probably already read that “it depends” – I hate those kinds of answers!

Nonetheless, there’s no more accurate answer to this query than “it depends.” But it depends on how often you wash your hair.

To summarize, Arctic Fox hair dye lasts between 2 and 6 weeks depending on the following factors.

 

1. If You Wash Your Hair Twice a Week: Arctic Fox Lasts From 2 to 3 Weeks

If you wash your hair twice a week (or more), and use regular shampoo, then Arctic Fox hair dye lasts from 2 to 3 weeks.

I’m confident that I could remove Arctic Fox in just 2 weeks if I wash my hair 6 times in that span of time. 

 

2. If You Wash Your Hair Once a Week: Arctic Fox Lasts From 4 to 5 Weeks

If you wash your hair once a week, then Arctic Fox hair dye lasts from 4 to 5 weeks. 

In my case, I wash my hair once a week indeed, so the hair dye lasted on my hair for 5 weeks – not bad at all!

 

3. If You Rarely Wash Your Hair: Arctic Fox Lasts 6 Weeks or More

Although your hair needs to be a bit dirty to dye it, I’d say that if you rarely wash it, then Arctic Fox hair dye can last over 6 weeks.

That’s a lot, but if you want your hair dye to last for almost 2 months, then avoid washing your hair too often.

 

My Experience: What Long Does Arctic Fox Hair Dye Last?

I recently did a product review on Arctic Fox Space Cowgirl. I applied some Arctic Fox on my bangs, and it looked amazing!

The hair dye lasted in my hair for 5 weeks without fading out whatsoever. I only wash my hair once a week, so this can give you an idea.

I’m confident that it could last 6 or 7 weeks if I washed my hair just once every 10 days or used anti-dandruff shampoo more often, but it is what it is – time to try new Arctic Fox hair dye products!

 

Does Arctic Fox Last Longer Than Manic Panic?

Yes, Arctic Fox lasts longer than Manic Panic, at least in my experience. Keep in mind that I’m a fan of fantasy hair colors (that’s why this website is called Fantasy Hair Lovers!), so I have only tried pink, purple, green, and other colorful hair dye options.

And, in that case, I’m 100% sure that Arctic Fox lasts longer than Manic Panic. I might depend – some darker Manic Panic tones can last longer than light Arctic Fox tones, but in general, Arctic Fox lasts longer than Manic Panic.

 

How Can I Make My Arctic Fox Last Longer?

If you want Arctic Fox to last between 5 and 6 weeks, then there are a few tips that you can follow.

This is how you make Arctic Fox last longer. 

  

1. Choose a Strong Color

There are tens of different Arctic Fox options that will last longer than purple, pink, and light colors.

You might change your color choice from a light red to a dark red – I assure you that it will last longer than you think, even if you wash your hair pretty often. 

 

2. Dye Your Hair Properly

Following Arctic Fox dyeing instructions is fundamental to ensure a vibrant and long-lasting color.

I have a guide that shows you how to use Arctic Fox hair dye step by step – pre-lightening your hair is a must if you want the color to last for longer.

Likewise, taking care of your hair after dyeing it is also necessary, so don’t sleep on the instructions.

  

3. Avoid Heating Tools and Washes

Heating tools, such as flat and curling irons, can fade out Arctic Fox hair dye gradually.

If you don’t want to get Arctic Fox out of your head, then avoid using these tools. Also, do not wash your hair that often – remember that rising your hair out will make Arctic Fox fade out quicker than you believe 

 

Why Does Arctic Fox Fade So Fast?

Arctic Fox quickly fades because it’s designed that way. We are talking about a semi-permanent hair dye that should last only for a few weeks, so it’s not strange for Arctic Fox to fade out quickly.

Now, if the product is fading out quicker than you expected, then you need to take a look at other external factors, such as the porosity of your hair and the color you choose. 

This is why removing Arctic Fox from your hair is very easy, and I totally like that, but I understand that some of us might want the dye to last for 2 months or more.

 

How Long Does Arctic Fox Hair Dye Last in Bottle?

Arctic Fox does not easily expire – it lasts in its bottle for over 12 months. Once, I used an Arctic Fox hair dye that had 16 months in my drawer, and it worked really great!

It depends on how you store it, but overall, Arctic Fox hair dye will always work.

 

Fantasy Recap: How Many Washes Does Arctic Fox Last?

That’s about it! On average, you can expect your Arctic Fox color to last anywhere from 12 to 24 washes or 2 to 6 weeks, depending on how well you care for your hair.

But fear not, my vibrant-haired friends, for those weeks will be packed with color, fun, and self-expression. Whether you’re going for a subtle pastel or a bold, neon hue, Arctic Fox will give you the confidence to express yourself in a way that’s as unique and creative as you are.

So, go ahead and dive into the world of Arctic Fox – your hair will thank you for it, and you’ll be turning heads wherever you go. Happy dyeing, my friends!
