Should I dye my hair jet black? - Empty Closets - A safe online community for gay, lesbian, bisexual, transgendered people coming out

I'm interested in dyeing my hair jet black. A lot of people say that it looks almost jet black anyway so might as well go all the way.

Here is my picture:

There is also one that I quickly photoshopped to give me jet black hair.

My hair is longer now, but I look like shit right now & don't want to take a new picture.

Go for it

I think that it would look good.

stratavos · 16th Jan 2010, 08:23 PM

why not a different colour, since it's so close to black, it won't be much of a difference

Zach1992 · 16th Jan 2010, 08:36 PM

I'm not really interested in any others. Maybe I could do the jet black with dark blue strips like I suggested to Kittyboy.

Milord · 16th Jan 2010, 08:56 PM

Have you considered another color?
My hair is pretty dark too and I was looking for a change too this week... Wanted them light brown, but it went wrong and I ended up with red hair, lol! So I decided to get them gray

I do not regret it haha

I think it looks good. Go for it.

ANightDude · 16th Jan 2010, 09:04 PM

I have to agree. From the looks of it, Black is your color, dude. Good luck!

Zach1992 · 16th Jan 2010, 09:09 PM

Thanks guys. The only thing I would do is a darker color, because going from dark to light is a bitch to do & ends up looking like shit.

JB1986 · 16th Jan 2010, 11:43 PM

I'd say do it. I tihnk it'll look good on you. I have pretty much the same hair color do, and it looks freakin' awesome whenever I dye it black. Have fun!

joeyconnick · 17th Jan 2010, 12:18 AM

That's pretty awesome quick Photoshopping.

The black looks good but it makes your skin look considerably paler.

Have you thought about going with a richer brown? Like something with red undertones? Or full-on auburn?

Goood! I wanna see how it looks on you, so then I might do it.^^ Call it a try-before-you-buy look, lol.

The blue didn't show up too well. :/

Austin · 20th Jan 2010, 05:32 PM

No.

Oh...

too late...

Well, it actually looks quite good on you. o_o

Thank Zeus the blue didn't show up though. Solid black is better.

Zach1992 · 20th Jan 2010, 05:35 PM

Thanks Austin!

20th Jan 2010, 05:38 PM

personally i think it suits you, and looks pretty cool. I dyed my hair kind of a red brown color once. It looked fine, but i was too lazy to go through the whole process again lol
