Blonde or Brunette ... Just Be Confident

If there's one thing I'm sick of hearing, it's that blondes have more fun. It's simple ... they don't have more fun and not all men prefer women with blonde hair. There, I said it.

Maybe it's because I live in Brooklyn, so I see all these girls on the L train with dark hair ... and I love it. Or maybe it's because I know how to have fun ... and I'm a natural dark-haired woman.

I do, however, understand that everyone has preferences. I have them. I love a head full of dark hair, but I have friends who's drool I've wiped up when a blonde guy walks past. So I get if you, as a man, honestly and truly prefer blondes.

But, I think for a lot of men, it's what they associate with blonde hair that draws them to it. It's the Marilyn Monroe star presence. The "dye your hair blonde to make it" look. And, be careful men ... that blonde girl of yours may actually be brunette at heart.

What really matters is how a woman feels when she is a blonde or a brunette. If your blonde hair makes you feel unstoppable ... then own it. But, don't simply have blonde hair to ... have blonde hair. You're not going to suddenly have more fun, and men aren't going to line up for you. If men do line up for you, it's because you have self confidence, and that's hot. It's not just the blonde hair.

Now for me, I can't imagine myself with anything but dark hair. I feel like it's more mysterious and dangerous. And, I hold my brown-haired head up with confidence. Like I said, that's what men are ultimately attracted to. Alright, they might also have a thing for dark-haired women. And it's a good thing there's some men out there that do. If not, my chances would be even more slim.

What I'm trying to say with all of this is ... girls, don't change your hair color for anyone but you. Do what you feel beautiful in. When you do that, the fun will come, and so will the men -- whether you're blonde or brunette.

  1. As someone who's had all the hair colors, I agree. :) I love to change it just to switch it up. Although, I've been red for a bit now and I love it. It might be my favorite yet.
