Overview

Arctic Fox Purple AF is a vegan, ammonia and peroxide free semi-permanent hair dye in a cream formula, designed to give a deep true purple on platinum to light brown hair and a softer tint on darker shades.

Because it is semi-permanent and free of ammonia and peroxide, this dye fades gradually rather than growing out with a visible line, which is the usual tradeoff for a bright fashion color like purple. Arctic Fox also positions it as a mixing base, suggesting it can be blended with other shades in its own line for custom colors, which matters mainly to buyers already familiar with the brand's palette.

  • Deep true purple on platinum to light brown hair
  • Free of ammonia, peroxide and PPD
  • Vegan, cruelty-free cream formula
  • Mixable with other Arctic Fox shades

Who it's for

Fits people with lightened or naturally light hair who want a bold, true purple, and colorists or hobbyists comfortable mixing shades for custom results. Less suited to anyone with dark, unlightened hair expecting a strongly saturated result, since the dye reads as a subtler tint there.

Pros and cons

Pros
  • True purple result on platinum to light brown hair
  • Ammonia, peroxide and PPD free formula
  • Vegan and cruelty-free ingredients
  • Can be mixed with other Arctic Fox shades for custom colors
Cons
  • Reads as a subtle tint rather than a bold color on darker hair
  • Semi-permanent, so color fades and needs reapplication

Performance notes

As a semi-permanent, ammonia and peroxide free cream dye, it deposits color onto the hair without lifting it, which is why the result depends heavily on the starting shade: platinum to light brown hair shows the full deep purple, while darker hair only picks up a subtler tint. The brand also markets it as mixable with other Arctic Fox shades, such as combining it with Wrath for a burgundy result or Poseidon for a deeper indigo.
