So many vibrant colors! Iโ€™ve been dyeing my own hair for years and Arctic Fox is my go-to for all fantasy colors. It smells incredible (like pixie sticks!) and my hair always comes out bright & soft

I use this sensitive scalp developer to mix with my bleach (also on this list) to lighten my hair before applying the dye. Itโ€™s so gentle and Iโ€™ve never had it burn my scalp!

Youโ€™ll need a bowl and brushes (also listed in here) to mix your bleach in! I keep two on hand because I like to squirt my color out of the bottle into a bowl as well - makes it quick and easier to apply

A good brush is a must have to apply your bleach and dye! I use two, one for each product. Love that these have the pointy end to part your hair with as you go. Donโ€™t forget gloves to protect your hairs! (Theyโ€™re listed in here too)

I cannot express how important gloves are when using bleach or fantasy dye! Itโ€™s so hard to get back out of your skin and nails. I use two pairs, one while dyeing and one while washing out in the shower (donโ€™t skip this step!!!)

I keep a couple black towels on hand for dye days! I lay them over the counter or floor to prevent messes. Your hair will also drip color for a bit, especially after the first wash. So having a dark towel you donโ€™t care about staining is key!
