Girls - Question About Hair Color and Dating

Ok, this is a strange question but humor me.

I'm a guy who has been dying my hair for about 11-12 years. My natural hair color is red. But, the color is almost a red brown color.

I dyed my hair for a lot of reasons. One I hated the hair color. Two, I used to get verbally bullied for it to the point I just got sick of it.

I never noted any girls reaction towards me as a redhead when I was a teenager. I just assumed they wouldn't want anything to do with me.

But now as I am older, I'm getting burnt out on dying my hair all the time. It costs money that I shouldnt be spending.

So I think I am going to go back to my natural hair color. But I am a little terrified as I am afriad a girl will never look my way again if I go back to my brown red hair color.

I wanted to ask this of all the girls before I stop my metrosexual ways and go back to being manly.

If you like red hair, can you tell me what your hair color is? Weird question but it helps me gauge what kind of girls might give me the time of day. And wont tell me to f--k off.

For example, when I dye my hair blonde, I attract mainly brunettes. So I know if I approach a brunette beforehand she is more likely to give me the time of day.

Whereas when I was a redhead as a teenager these brunettes would never look in my direction. Then in the same turn complain about men going for blondes. But then they go for me as a blonde. Gotta love hypocrites.

Sorry enough of the bitterness tip. So if you like red hair on a guy provided it isnt orange or he looks like Carrot Top, can you say your hair color?

I already know brunettes have no interest. But I dont know about blondes. It is hard to tell since blondes in my city tend to go for hispanic and black guys only.

Thanks for your indulgence in a strange question..

One, do you go to a salon to dye it or do you do it yourself? It's not nearly as expensive if you do it yourself.

Two, mine's naturally dark brown that already had a slight tinge of red. I dye it to give it more red highlights and I love it.

I really don't think you'll have an issue. You're comparing stupid, mean children to grown, adult women. I really doubt that you'll get much shit over hair as that's a petty and immature thing to do as an adult.

...And if some silly bitches think that hair color is enough to not date a guy, they aren't worth pursuing, are they? I think you may even be a bit too vain in thinking that hair color determines a person. Really? Blonde chicks only go for hispanic/black guys? Is this study of yours credible??

lol

@Rockyroad - I said in my city they tend to go for that type. I didnt say all of them. I

I dye it myself. I am in California though where everything is a little pricier.

I never said women were mean about the color. I just meant they had no interest at all when I had red hair in high school.

People can say all they want about it being more personality and confidence. But looks are exceptionally important in dating. I've been the fun guy when I didnt have hair dye. And women showed no interest.

But I dye my hair, women showed actual romantic interest without me saying a word.

I think the mistake this culture makes is saying that only men are hard-core on looks in dating. Whereas women as just as much and sometimes even more.

It's not a complaint, just a fact. Especially when you live in a city like Los Angeles

Nice try honey. I live in the same area. It sounds like you suffer from the same affliction as those you seek.

I brought up the point because YOU said you used to get picked on for your hair and you're comparing shit to high school here. I assume you're a grown adult now? So why are you fixating your experience based on one of the stupidest times of life that we all experience? People in that age group are retarded as fuck and will pick on people/exclude them for the most ridiculous reasons.

However, people here ARE kinda ridiculous in who they pursue, but it's not as bad as you paint it to be, sorry. Maybe YOU should reconsider who you chase if they're shallow enough to be all about hair and looks. You also may want to reconsider where you meet people as well. I've met more decent, non shallow people through school and hanging out with friends than I have going to shows, clubs, bars, or anything related. When you chase after those in the hook up culture, of course they're going to fixate on looks. They're looking to make their nether bits tingle for the night, not marriage material.

And for dying hair being "pricier?" I go to Sally Beauty and buy two shades of dye to make my hair color. That's 9 bucks and it gets me two, maybe three dye jobs/touch ups done. The bottle of developer costs like 4 bucks and that lasts me about a year or so. Grand total per dye job/touch up is like 5 dollars. Far less than 80-100 that some places charge. However, I can't fault you for wanting to stop, as going from dark to blonde is brutal on your hair.

Also, the blonde chicks you speak of, the ones that "chase" after hispanic and black dudes, they are known as bro hoes. I wouldn't be stressing over women like that if I were you. It also makes me lol that you think your observations of who pursues who is correct since I've failed to see the same correlation and I live in the same area. You, of all people, should know that whole blonde hair/blue eyed stereotype isn't true to California, as this state is just over 50% latino and they have dark hair/dark eyes, nevermind the rest of the population that already has dark hair.

Are you in your early 20s by chance?

I've dated a ginger, and i think that color is gorgeous.

Now I am involved with a guy who has black hair, and the one before that also had dark hair...so, it seems that I don't mind the hair, personality comes first.

also, i have dark brown hair 🙂

i think that usually natural hair color (whatever it is) suits people better than any color they dye their hair into.

my suggestion is that you try and go back to your own color, if you don't like it, you can always dye it back to the one you have now.

once you are confident about yourself and happy with who you are, girls will get a lot more attracted, regardless of you hair color. (by this i mean any normal girls with common sense)

GOOD LUCK 🙂

+1

I asked about him being in his 20s because almost everyone in that age range has no idea what they want and they're all stupid. It's a frustrating time trying to find someone decent. Altering appearances to appease this group is a waste of time.

To assume that he/she can't get anyone due to looks says a lot about the outlook on things atm.

Let it go natural-- you can always dye it again if you hate it.

But don't let it make you insecure-- if you do, that will be the culprit that you (may) mistakenly attribute to your hair color.

Having said that... if dying your hair makes you feel better, there's nothing wrong with that.

I'm not really a fan of light blonde hair on men (dark, dirty blonde is just fine, thanks), but that's

just my personal taste.

As for red hair-- like dis?



Or more like dis?




Idk-- I don't see the problem.

Oh and I have blonde highlights. 🙂

Just remembered he said 11-12 years, lolz. Not 20s after all...
