In celebration of Gay Pride in London this weekend, don colours in your hair and give the rainbow trend a try.

From Georgia May Jagger to Chloe Norgaard, take inspo from the celebrities giving in to vibrant locks.

And if you're in need of a guide to achieving the look at home then you've come to the right place. We got the downlow from Georgia May Jagger's colourist Alex Brownsell of Bleach London for her guide to getting Pride-worthy locks.

Alex is the reason why we're even writing about rainbow hair, as her salon Bleach is the home of this hair-that-looks-like-it's-been-felt-tipped look.

Alex said of Georgia's rainbow hair: "I used 8 different colours on Georgia's hair as she wanted to try out something fun and exciting for the summer whilst she isn't working. She's always wanted to try something colourful but because of fashion work it's really hard so we did something temporary which will wash out and fade quickly in the sun in time for the season to start again in September."

Alex Brownsell's steps to getting Georgia's rainbow hair look -

"I used 3 shades of pink, a soft green, pastel blue and a few different purples, some oranges and pinks."
"I sectioned the hair randomly and used her hair as kind of an artist paint pallet, blending and mixing colours to create new ones on her actual hair using a technique I call smooshing."

"I only ever use my hands and work very visually, it looks a bit like finger painting."
"I wanted the colours in the front to compliment her skin colouring and bone structure which I think the degree and level of fading really does."

"The process only takes a few hours, the application can be as detailed and long or easy and short as you like."
"If you want to do this at home you should just do it visually with your hands and let the colours blend as they naturally do on the hair."
