Answer 1

Right, I shall be the voice of dissent here. Do not dye your hair black, you will look so horrifically emo it'll ruin your cute looks. If you want to be individual, don't conform to the miserable emo kids with their rubbish hair, the darkest I'd go would be dark brown because it would suit your skin.

Trust me, I dj for a living in central london at several indie clubs, and it's so tragic seeing these young kids with terrible black hair that looks terrible on them. If you're part of the emo scene, I'd understand why you'd want to do it, but if you're part of the indie scene, go dark brown at best, or maybe even bright red like Patrick Wolf if you really want to make an impact!

Honestly chicken, you're a cute boy, the girls would go crazy for you i'm sure, but that black hair would be SUCH a cliche!

Answer 2

I think you should dye it black. Use a semi -permanent colour first time you do it. . It will wash out after a few weeks. If you use a permanent colour and don't like it you would have to go to the hairdressers and get it professionally removed.
You are quite pale but I am also pale and have been dying my hair dark for most of my life, it suits me much more than my natural hair colour (which is very similar to your hair).

Answer 3

Black hair is very harsh, and will give your skin a pale complexion. You also have dark eyes and having exceptionally dark hair could really drain your face. Black hair is also excetionally fake looking. Try going for a dark brown instead to give a darkened appearence without looking like overkill on the hair dye.

Answer 4

Hey! Black would be quite a strong colour on you - but I think it would work! Black with a few random chunks bleached would look pretty cool too!

I think your hair looks cool as it is by the way :-) But yeah, black would look good! If you're unsure, buy some of that spray on colour first to try at home - that'll show you roughly how it will look, then you can wash it all out.

P.S. you're hot, boy!! ;-)

in case you dye your hair black and you do no longer like it that's a discomfort to get decrease back on your organic colour. To get the colour out of your hair it is going to must be stripped and then re-colored. After your hair has been stripped the cosmetologist will ought to apply a colour filler on it before they are able to have the ability to maintain on with a colour this is close to on your organic colour. The stripping technique will dry it out and it will fade out truly speedy by way of fact the cuticle; the out facet layer of the hair shaft would be broken. you will ought to bypass to the salon to have it executed by way of fact you haven't any longer have been given the appropriate colour to do it; and it will fee you vast $$$. I truly have been an approved cosmetologist for over thirty years. wish this helps.
