Trying Out Arctic Fox's 'Sunset Orange'

Hi yup, so I tried out "Sunset Orange" from Arctic Fox and uhhhhhm yUP. Not great lol.

hi hello this video is a big ol' mess and YUPPP, but this week threw me for a loop and this video sounded a lot better of an idea in my head but AHWELL, they can't all be winners lol.
Frodo is doing really well btw, as you can see, he's back to normal! (For those of you who didn't see, he had a mild focal seizure on Monday and scared the heck out of me, but vet said as long as it's not reoccurring, not to worry) But anyways I promise my next video will be more interesting lol.

I want a Vintage Poison Ivy cosplay. Now!

Please do a Jessica Rabbit character look. You would look so beautiful Rachel.

The red suits you so well! I did that same mistake a few months ago tho. I thought I’d dye my hair ginger, but I ended up looking like Pennywise. 🤷🏼‍♀️

Rachel: "It's more like, opening credits of the lion king.." *pulls up photo of opening credits of the lion king*
Opening credits of the lion king: *look exactly like Rachel's hair*
Me: *wheezing*

So hi I work at a beauty supply store so I thought I'd answer some of your curiosities. The reason it asks you to wash your hair is because semi-permanent dyes basically sit on top of your hair so if it's freshly washed it'll catch the hair better and more evenly. When I dyed my hair blue with punky color it asked for the same thing. As for the reason it hardly did anything to your roots is because it doesn't have any sort of developer and therefore didn't lighten your roots at all. If I had to guess the box dye you usually use has such a thing so that's why it does color your roots vs. semi-permanent and henna dyes. I'm not an expert hair scientist but this is my understanding from what I've learned at work so TADA. Also I think the color looks very pretty on you but I understand the feel of "this was not the color I wanted"

Would love to see you dressed in vintage outfits recreating moments from vintage classic films. Would be truly awesome! ❤

Things Rachel compares herself and her hair to:
Ferris Buler, Hailey Williams, Daphnie, Poison Ivy, Left-over Pasta(my personal favorite), Traffic Light, Superhero Hair, and of course the Opening Credits of the Lion King.

Also I can't stop picturing you head banging in a snow storm to warn your neighbors.

It may not be the color that you expected but I think it still looks great!! ☀️ It kind of closely matches your lipstick color!

A little reassurance from a hairdresser:
-henna and box colour won't break your hair (notdamaging enough), the reason they say not to mix them is the colour result isn't predictable, they don't mix well together and can have some weird colour results.
-one part products are just a stain, they will fade but chemically they remain on the hair. They will cover lighter than itself but the darker base the less effect they will have.

hope that helps as a guide for the future.

The best coppery-gingery red I've ever gotten from a dye is a mix of Wella's titian red with red red, the only downside was that it took maybe one or two washes for it to fade pretty drastically. Sally Beauty does carry a conditioner that's supposed to be kind of like a dupe for overtone that kinda boosts your hair color if you need it, too.

I actually love that color. Thank you so much for trying it out and sharing with us. I wasn't too sure if this color had the perfect copper red tone I was looking for, thinking it was too orange, but nope... it is actually the perfect ratio I am looking for in a semi-dye to keep my hair vibrant color in between permanent treatments. Thank you again.

I love Frodo's conversations, they make my day.

[aaaaaaaaa]

A great opportunity to cosplay as Jessica Rabbit, Ariel or Poison Ivy.

"My hair is one of the only thing I can control in my life" oh my God I say that and people think I'm nuts! Haha

[HalloQueenie]

I love how your hair turned out! I also have been noticing less available red box dyes at my local drug stores in California, maybe its a dying trend in hair coloring? I just dyed my hair to a similar red from a Garnier box, and I'll have to try the cling wrap next time. Normally I use an old plastic shopping bag and clip the excess around a bun at the base of my head after combing the dye through. I find it's a great way to use up shopping bags since we have to pay 25 cents for them here, not sure if your stores banned them on the east coast yet though.

[katelynjacobi]

I, for one, L O V E this content. Next time, go to Sally Beauty Supply and try out the hair color options there! You typically buy the dye and developer separately, but I think they have many, many redhead options for you!

[oliviamore]

i dont usually comment on videos but i wanted to tell you how endearing your personality is- there's such a magnetic and charming vibe about you! you are just the sweetest!

I’ve been exploring the world of Arctic Fox myself, and I think the color you got is pretty accurate relative to the starting shade of your hair. I’m not sure if they had this 5 months ago, but now they have an interesting chart on their website for each of the colors, exhibiting how vibrant each color will look depending on your current color since it doesn’t have developer in it. Ie: I’d end up with the same color you got because I have a medium colored hair naturally.

It’s a really useful chart. I went there to start choosing some color options to create a soft pastel sort of mix after bleaching my hair, but one of those purples they have would look absolutely freakin gorgeous and almost a royal/violet shade if I just do that and don’t bleach my hair.

Something that could be super interesting for future videos would be putting polls throughout the video! I always love it when creators do it as it makes their content so much more interactive, and when you were talking about your roots and said 'place your bets' I was to see what other people were guessing 😂
