37 Brilliant Galaxy Hair Color Styles

1. Sunset Shades

If you love sunsets, why not get the sunset hues on your hair? This galaxy style features the epic colors of the sunset. The hair style has a combination of red, orange, yellow, and brown streaks against the dark purple shade that captures the essence of the sunset sky.

Cyliena Velnarin, a blogger, got her hair colored in sunset shades. She was initially aiming for fire hair, but the colors turned out to be more vibrant than the ones needed for the fire illusion, giving her sunset hair. In her blog, she mentions, “The colors ended up much richer than the typical ones used in fire hair coloring, so ‘sunset hair’ more appropriately fit the style.” She also mentions having to get touch-ups with the red tending towards rose gold instead, hence her stylist found a workaround, “Instead of layering red/orange/gold, she did a red-to-orange ombre and kept the gold layer (the only one that’s been sticking) underneath (i).”

2. Blue And Pink Pastel Galaxy

How much does galaxy hair cost?

Hair stylists estimate a session to get a full head of galaxy hair color to cost between $300-$600 depending on the number of colors, brands, tools, and time invested.

How do I part my hair for galaxy hair?

If you are coloring your hair in galaxy shades by yourself at home, you can part your hair however you want. There is no set rule. Instead of straight parts, you can make zig-zag partings or just choose sections of hair at random. This way, you can flaunt different swirls of colors, which is the point of this look.

How do you make a galaxy bun?

Galaxy or space buns are pretty simple, but they can be tied differently. You can do a center parting and tie both sides into high ponytails.

You may also get bangs and experiment with partings or tie your hair in Bantu knots.
