So, to bang, sparkle and fizz like a magnificent firework, check out our gallery above, and read on to get the lowdown on each look.

2. Neon lights

One of the things that makes fireworks so captivating is the way that they light up against the darkness, so why not emulate the effect with your hair colour?

3. Burning brights

Of course it’s not just the fireworks that make up the celebrations, we can’t forget about Guy Fawkes and the bonfire!

For a look that rivals the burning embers, use the balayage technique to combine auburn, red and purple hues for a too-hot-to-handle style. Credit: @newidentitieshairstudio

Tip: To show off your Bonfire Night hair colours, and to help them blend more fluidly together, curl your hair for extra texture and movement.

7. Up in flames

Are you a brave and devoted hair-dyeing veteran? Then this may the be bonfire-approved colour combination you’ve been waiting for.

By mixing together fuschias, oranges, yellows and green, these hues will give you an eccentric explosion of colour that’ll have everyone watching your mane and not the fireworks! Credit: @valrocksyourhair

8. Pastel rainbow

If flashy colours aren’t quite your thing, fret not, as you can still emulate the look of firework hair, just in a more subtle way!

For something a little less dramatic, but nonetheless stunning, try sticking to more muted, pastel hues. It’ll give you the same rainbow effect, just in a softer finish that fades less noticeably. Credit: @thehairstylish
