is a sign of rebellion? Or do you just take it to mean that the person with dyed hair just likes that color?

It can be taken differently by different people. I had a reputation for being very nice, quiet, polite girl when I dyed my hair a wild colour (orangey-red) and it certainly changed how people saw me but mostly positively. People started to assume that I was more interesting, but it didn't change their general impression of me. I had little old ladies, housewives, and small kids come up to me and tell me how much they liked my hair.
I don't think that it has to be a sign of rebellion if you don't make it. Certainly, people who don't know you might perceive you as a rebel, but of the people who do, people can be more accepting that you might think. Of course, this can depend on your social circumstances, sex (maybe it's less acceptable for a guy), race, religion, or whether your body is also covered with tattoos or piercings. It's definitely a non-conformist act, but not necessarily rebellious. As for your question, I don't think anyone takes it that "you just like that colour" because it's so unusual, but it's got to be one of the greatest conversation starters!

I think it could be a lot of things: a form of self-expression, a cry for attention, an act of rebellion etc. It all depends on the person. I had blue hair as a teenager and did it cause I wanted to be different. Each person is different. My daughter is allowed to do whatever she wants with her hair, it's not my hair. She has chosen to just wear it long with highlights but, if she wanted to dye it some off-color, I wouldn't care.

Depends on the person-either way you are looking for attention- just as a brunett wants to be blonde. All women or girls have choices these days if born with a color they dont like change it.
The maintenance on a vivid color is a lot and can be damaging to the hair because colors like this slip out of the hair easily due to you hair being porus and dry from the chemicals used to obtain the color.
If you are wanting to try it first I would recomend you using the colored clipped hair extentions first to see if you like it and you can buy them in all different colors to match outfits and stuff. You can get them at your local beauty supply store open to the public like Sally's

Not necissarily. Just because you want to dye your hair another bright color doesn't always have to mean that you are a rebel.
I personally think that people dye their hair bright colors because they like it. But, I can always be wrong-the person could be a rebel.
It's really your own choice-and unless you ask someone with dyed bright colored hair if they are being rebel or if they just like the color,you will never know.

I work near RISDI (Rhode Island School of Design) and everyone.....well, almost everyone, has either pink, purple, yellow, magenta, green, and blue hair. Is it rebellion? Uhhhh, not sure, but I think they just dig how it looks on them. Anyway, it has become a rareity to actually see someone with their natural color!

i think a person who does that jst likes that particular color and is a little eccentric. sometimes tho people do do it as a sign or rebellion or the type of music they listen to...they believe it shows who they are inside/their personality. but personally i believe it ruins peoples hair--wear the color-dont dye your hair with it. especially girls....

Rebellion because I like blue more then anything and I don't have blue hair. It's rebellion or just wanting to stand out and look different.

Rebellion pure and simple.
No one looks their best with hair that's blue, purple, or any other color only found in a Crayola box. They look like a freak. That's fine if you want that, but don't get mad when other people don't take you seriously.

They like that color or just want to see what it looks like. I wouldn't say its rebellion. Plus, ya gotta do something like that once in your life.

I would just assume that that person likes that color. I'm not a judgmental person though.
