Answer 1

No, hun! You've got gorgeous lightish brownish blondish hair that I would kill for!! With your light complexion, I would stay away from dark hair!


However, if you are going to dye your hair a drastically new color, I would use the 28 day one, or you'll have some pretty bad roots.

Hope this helps!

I have dyed my hair black on two occasions, and I looked like one of the Addams Family when it was long, which led me to cut it off to above shoulder length. It was fine then, for a while, but then it started to grow out and it looked awful. Because of the harshness of the black in contrast with my light brown roots, it made it look as though my hair started growing where the black was. Consequently, I actually looked like I might be bald underneath. Quite why I did this to myself a second time, I will never know. I suspect I may have been slightly drunk at the time!

But....this isn't always the case. I have seen people go black completley successfully, but if you're going to do something so drastic, especially if it's a permanent thing, I think you should consider it from all sides. The colour will look fantastically striking at first, but growing it out is a complete pain! Please don't do anything without really thinking it through first!

Answer 3

Dont dye your hair permanent black!Opt for something non permanent or a dark brown instead.I did that last fall and while I did absolutely love it,it was a pain to get out.Honestly i dont regret doing it bc it looked great.By all means if you really want to, do it,but be prepared with what it will take to get it all out when the time comes you dont want it anymore.goodluck!

Answer 4

Depends on your skin color, it's such a dark color I think if you have paler skin it looks too drastic and gothic (unless your wanting that look), try a dark brown that is close but not black. And black dye is very hard to get rid of when you want to go lighter again, it would be very damaging to your hair then.

Answer 5

I've seen your picture and no you do not need to dye it black because youre too white and it would make you look like wednesday adam ( addams family) with that eye liner that you cake it on your eye, that also needs to either go or ya gotta soften it up . Its lookin a tad bit harsh on your pretty face and eyes. Soften up your make up and keep your blond locks. It agrees with you.

Answer 6

only if you have the patience to bear with the growing out stage when you get tired of it. it is a lot of work to remove black dye and usually dries out the hair pretty badly. that and a short cut about 6-8 months after you change your mind

Answer 7

I think that it looks lovely as it is, but if you are going to dye then start off with a mid brown, cause you can see what suits you. Cause if it looks to dark at a mid brown then it's easy to dye back, whereas if you dye if black, then it would be harder to go back to it's natural colour. Hope this helps :).

Answer 8

i was a blond hair before and i dye it black and it make such a difference i have very nice compliments about my change and i really like how a look right now so if you think you want to change go ahead and do it don't be afraid of a big change.

Answer 9

I have never seen hair "colored" black that looked natural but remember, it comes out of a bottle, so it won't even come close to looking natural & that's the look you should be trying to achieve. Skin tone should be taken into account if you are determined to color your hair black. You must have the right skin tone or it won't look natural either.

Answer 10

NO! you can go a shade darker to get rid of that blond, but you defiantly cant go Black your skin is to white and you don't have the eyebrows for black hair...
