What do you think of unusual hair colors on women?

Question

Like Purple, pink, green, blue, etc

Lliam · Accepted Answer

They don't do a thing for me. They fall into the category of tats and piercings and usually mean that a person isn't that attractive or has low self esteem and is trying to compensate by being edgy. And edginess only fits in with certain cliques but not in all "real world" environments. I think how awkward it is for someone with tats on their neck or piercings on their face to go for a job interview or to a sophisticated restaurant or formal event.
In general, I think most "men" (as opposed to boys) are attracted to fresh faced, well groomed women who have a more natural, girl next door quality; who can be casual but can transform to deadly hot in an office or formal setting. For example, when I was a long haired, surfer/rocker in college, I was in a PE class where we rode bikes for miles. I often rode with and talked to a girl who looked adorable in her biking attire. We got along great. She told me where she worked in a department store. When I went there to see her, I was knocked out. She was wearing a dress, heels and glasses and looked so freaking grown up and sophisticated that I was intimidated. She could have been a fashion model or the CEO of a corporation.

After I cut my hair and got a really good job, I learned how to behave around adults. That's when I met the hottest women of my life.

So, not to put too hard an edge on this. Unusual hair colors on kids is ok. Like I said, I did something similar with long hair when I was in high school and college. Hair color and style is not permanent. Face piercings are a form of self mutilation. Ear rings rock and even navel piercings can be quite attractive. Tats are often grotesque (especially on women), but I've seen some cute tats that are well placed where they are not difficult to conceal.

In general, though, I see no point in unusual hair color, tats or things like that. It seems like they would limit, not increase, the chances of attracting desirable men. Then again, it depends on what kind of men a woman, herself, is attracted to. A lot of girls were attracted to me when I was a rebel. Different people have different tastes.

ok. probably gonna generate some dislike from this comment but oh well - here goes anyway: it takes a certain kind of girl/woman to even want that kind of hair in the first place. which means she's daring and fun and probably full of wide-eyed innocence for the world (whether she has wide eyes or not), meaning she cares and she wants to live her life out loud. not a lot of girls/women can pull that off. but if you can - go for it! in my personal experience (and i have had every hair colour known to man and am now sporting the rose-gold streaks) - men who think they don't like it can't stop looking at it if they see it on a girl/woman done right. and the only girls/women who don't fawn over how cute and daring it is are just flat-out jealous. cuz when it's done right and the girl can pull it off - then it's awesome! and i love seeing girls/women be daring! it takes my breath away!

Depending on how they act and their body language, either extremely wary or it makes no difference.

If they're all guarded and have thinly veiled hostility (most fall into this), I'm wary I'm dealing with a tumblr rad fem, so I avoid interacting in any significant way.

If they hold themselves with confidence and openness, I'm curious about them and will usually try to work in a compliment or get the story as to why they dyed their hair. Even if it's "just for fun", I like it.

I'm noticing a lot of anger on the Male side. There's a lot of context that goes on. Personality: the hair should match the personality, like bright colors for more jovial people, and deeper, or softer colors for calm or low energy people.

I believe that the idea behind a wild hair color has been hurt because of some people having it, then acting out and saying that their hair makes them different, so it's okay. It's not.

I personally like wild colors. A jovial girl with an energetic blue or purple is just FANTASTIC, and I haven't found a girlfriend yet that wants to do that.

BCA6010 · Answer

It takes a great deal of effort to pull off well enough to actually look decent, and the overwhelming majority will not go through that much effort, so it ends up looking trashy. In my opinion, it looks best when applied more as a highlight or a tip to very dark hair than as a complete coloring.

It's also frequently associated with the craziest demographic of the feminazis and man-hating lesbians, so it will definitely earn some immediate negative labels from many guys regardless of how good it looks.

Maraneva · Answer

Simply put, as with any body adornment like tattoos or piercings or even unique dresses, hair colour is just not for everyone. Some look absolutely awesome while others look downright ugly after colouring their hair. It's completely subjective but if pulled off well, it can be quite attractive.

InternetGuy · Answer

Looks wise I think it's like anything else. It'll look good on some but not all. If we look at the person, well from my experiences they tend to be interesting (for lack of a better word). Recently I've been hanging out with this chick who has her hair dyed pink and she's fuckin' crazy, but hella fun to be around. They're just something different.

wankiam · Answer

it can look good but depends very much on how well its done... i dont think many people like a washed out green for example but electric blue can look stunning

walt0462 · Answer

I don't know how other men feel about unsual hair coloring... m not of the traditional type and it doesn't do anything for me and it's a distraction at best from her beauty probably... Unless the unusual color is for some special occasion but I personally don't care for it

AmandaYVR · Answer

I like it. Too bad it''s become so common/trendy now, but still it is fun and expressive.

Shiver · Answer

I like it if it she can pull it off. My best friend had her hair blue for the longest time and she looked amazing with it.

tony1970 · Answer

NothingHereee · Answer

It depends on what color and if it fits them I've seen many women with unusual colors and it looked really nice and I've seen some that looked sadly awful,

DamnSam · Answer

Looks nice but is probably made with pretty bad chemicals...

Like, you need gloves because save the nerve ends in your hand... and dont worry, its just your brain inside that head, use just the whole bottle

Massageman · Answer

If it's part of a nice cosplay, sure.

As far as everyday wear, not so much.
It's a curious thing - - - - women who use these unusual colors on their hair will often say they are trying to be "unique" or "their own person". After awhile, though, so MANY are using pink hair, green hair, etc. that they look the SAME and the uniqueness really ISN'T. Manufacturers understand this herd mentality and create this illusion of uniqueness in the minds of consumers.

GoodGuyBreakingBad · Answer

Glorious_Gay_Dragon · Answer

So pretty, but god that must be a pain to take care of. You'd have to sleep with plastic over your whole bed and buy towels that match your hair! Im too lazy for that shenanigans lmao😂

DashboardLight · Answer

Aqua blue hair for the win.

Kayla45 · Answer

It looks nice in streaks but not their full color, but then again my profile picture depicts this so..

Nikodemus · Answer

I love the examples you have shown. Whether hair is kept clean and is not a tangled mess is more important when it comes to my perception of a woman's hair, though judicious choice of colouring does add to its appeal.

leahzrc · Answer

its damaging so i wouldn't do it plus it looks childish to me. i had purple streaks in my hair when my hair was blonde and it looked nice but it was unneccessary

Raflair · Answer

In my opinion, i like a lot, it change, it's cute, i like people who have their own style!

DOGMA1954 · Answer

I think its great. Its just an expression of ones taste and I have found that most women look very sexy in some colors.

BlueScorpio · Answer

Depends on the color and how it's styled. I like unicorn hair though.

aWes0MeNeSs · Answer

I think they can look neat, but I wouldn't personally want unusual colors as an everyday look. Plus, they unfortunately look bad pretty quickly as the roots grow in and the color fades.

Liam_Hayden · Answer

Better than a tattoo because it can be easily changed if you regret it.

DRodInParadise · Answer

Personally, I do LOVE women who r willing to choose an unusual color for their hair. It just means they r that confident in themselves to do something like that... Very sexy!

ImagineSketchy · Answer

I think they're fine and rather interesting. The color can tell a lot about a personality sometimes.

Brad23203 · Answer

On a young lady who is cute, I love it. Having said that though, cute is the keyword. Cute is not average, attractive, pretty or beautiful. Cute is cute. Period. I think it makes her look more fun to be with as well as to look at.

MissDawn7961 · Answer

if their going to do this to their hair then why not make up their face to go with it? doing this hair coloring damages your hair so why not do this to your face and damage it too ! Thanks

cth96190 · Answer

I loathe weird colours in hair.
Colours scream trailer trash and/or insane Feminist.
Weird colours are, to most men, a sign to stay away.
Weird colours are up there with tattoos and nose piercings as red flags.

Zorrak · Answer

Dont like e girls and hardcore feminist with red hair but if a girl is cute then I'm totally fine and might even interact with them but a majority of them today made a bad rep for themselves so far

It can work, if it works for them. Sometimes it even makes them look even better. But usually, it just looks weird.

chaeyoungswife · Answer

I love it. I've always wanted to dye my hair different colors but I don't know if I'd look very pretty in them.

Ianto · Answer

Do you mean unusual or unnatural? Some rare natural shades are entrancing. Virulent dyes strike me as attention seeking behaviour.

Junen · Answer

Not my cup of tea, but some girls pull it off like the girl in my pfp.

Boredoftrivialshiiit · Answer

People with colorful hair tend to have bitchy personalities like my purple haired bitch roommate, and this whacky English instructor with pink hair

It might match their skin color.

TacosRAwesome · Answer

It looks cool if it goes with their overall aesthetic.

Not my thing, but I’m a natural red head. I might be inclined to think otherwise if I had a different organic color.

Moonchild714 · Answer

Some can pull it off some can't. Those that can it looks beautiful

Browneye57 · Answer

Absolutely disgusting and fake. Worse than fake tits. Almost worse than tattoos. What is the matter with these idiots? Who told them that looks good?  And the short hair. OMFG. Hideous.

hotrocks · Answer

If I already find you attractive it is a plus, but if not, probably worse off.
