Black or Blonde???

[esoterica]

I really need someone else's opinion on this... i'm changing my hair soon in a few days and i really dont know which color looks best on me. ive always preferred jet black hair but after being blonde recently im not so sure anymore. everyone says blonde looks great on me so i dont know if i should go back to black or not... what do you guys think?

The blonde looks really nice on you but so does the black. Maybe you should go blonde for the summertime and then back to black for the fall/winter. HTH

I'm going with Vikki. You look beautiful either way. But since its summer maybe go lighter.

I vote for black.. it looks more becoming on you.

You look absolutely fabulous in both black and blonde hair. I'm leaning towards the blonde, because it gives you a little more "star" quality. Not many women can pull off blonde hair, but you are doing it well! I say go blonde and stand out from the crowd.

thanks thattvgirl !
my mom thinks the way you do too... that i should go for the blond because its so different. i don't know who the girl is in 50cents Candy Shop but her hair is making me jealous... i keep looking at her think 'yeah im gonna stay blond'.

That's a good idea! best of both worlds... i'll gave to lighten my hair around the edges to blend in though... then make it black again with a rinse later on in the year. still, if i dont relax then i guess my hair should be able to cope. it annoys me having to choose tho...

I don't mean to sound like a fool, but what do you mean by becoming? like classy? or have i got i wrong?

Usually when people say becoming they mean that besides something looking nice that it especially fits or *suits* you.

That said, I kinda like the blonde. It's becoming too

p.s. I love your siggy pic

I love System of a Down!
Back to the point at hand. I like the jet black best on you.

you look great with both colors, as someone who has been blonde in some way and shade or another for YEARS, I kno whow you're feeling about the blonde; it sure does make you feel like a celeb or something! Maybe try a new color all together? That's always fun, too!!

your hair looks great... the color really suits you
i really love the idea of having the front of my hair purple hair actually... but that'll have to wait till i'm fully natural and can lighten my hair enough to get the shade of purple i want. i tried it before but it just went red. i didnt take enough colour out i guess.

Well...you already know that I think your gorgeous, regardless of your hair color, but the blonde seems to wash your skin tone out a little. I think that the darker color compliments your beautiful brown complexion

 

[hotshot]

go for black!

 

[Lorraine]

Black complements you the best.

 

[esoterica]

Thanks to everyone for your comments so far
it seems black is winning in the poll... Get voting people! the power is yours!

Ditto!

 

[Mestiza]

Initially, I was thinking black, until I saw your blonde pic. You look great either way, but, the blonde really highlights your pretty features.

I think both colors look nice on you but I lean more towards the black hair.

 

[LDebagoria]

Since I've always been curious about what blonde would look like on me (can't do it right now,) I say go blonde!

Oh! I did purple a few years ago (I wish I had pics!!! ), when my hair was blonde the first time (my own hair, not the braids) it grew out of course and rather than doing the double process again, I just put the braids back in and ignored it. Then after quite a while I decided to take the braids out and the blonde was from my shoulders to my chin, so I decided to put some of the Manic Panic (I think it's called) on those ends and it was this funky dark purple with my natural dark color on the rest of my head. I loved it and got a lot of compliments. Maybe next time the braids come out, I'll do it again... Have you thought of a lighter brown maybe or even a red that you are trying for? I love red, but it never seems to suit me.

I've had red hair before by accident but i didnt really feel like it suited me. i think shades of brown are best with my skin tone... i'd love to have some purple hair tho.... ive been looking at manic panic recently actually... was your hair natural when you had it blonde? i tried blonde highlights over relaxed hair (using the african pride highlights kit) and they all fell out...

I officially voted for black because I just personally liked it better, but I think you really look pretty either way and I think you want to go blonde more so go for it--blonde is bold, beautiful and sexy. Why play it safe?

Just as i talked myself out of going blonde...
I was all for it not too long ago but everyone seems to be voting black. and i'm starting to miss my 'old hair'. ive got my eye on some blue black dye
BUT i think the blonde needs to be done, so what i really need is a blonde lacefront! theres goes my bank balance

 

[Iluvsmuhgrass]

I like both colors on you but the black reaaaaaaaaally looks good against your skin. You are rockin the styles girl. Whatever you choose, rock it like the diva you really are.

You like system of a down too?? Girl I'm sittin here singin' "they take me away froooooooooooooooooom, the strangest place ooooooooooooof, sweet danny and lisaaaaaaaaaaaa, they take me away frooooooooom'' hahaha good schtuff

No, my hair hasn't been relaxed in 10 years; I really would be afraid to go blonde with relaxed hair, in fact I think the reason I went blonde was BECAUSE I had decided to stop relaxing since it had already been a couple years in braids and really didn't see the point in relaxing when I could get it just as straight without a relaxer but had more body and shine in my hair. So I figured it was strong and had no other chemicals, let's try it! Shazam! Bllllon-dee! I felt sooo Hollywood!

Sounds like a great plan! The best of both worlds. Have fun girl.
