Well, we've got the poll about what hair color looks good on girls, so, howsabout one for guys? Here it is! With poll, assuming I don't screw anything up.

It seems everyone on this forum likes girls...

Brown, I suppose.

I don't have very strong a preference.

Brown, Blonde, Black, Green, Bald...Its all equally nice...Besides its irrelevant ;)

I have brown hair, so I'm going with brown. :p

It seems everyone on this forum likes girls...

Only half.

Only half.

The other half seems to prefer brown. So far.

It depends on the skin tone.

Never really thought much about it before but my preferences seem to be leaning toward the brown haired guys. All but two guys I have dated had brown hair.

It depends on the skin tone.
That's what she said.

Where?

Where?

On the head, I believe. That, or the soles of the feet. :p

So where do the guys with facial hair different to the rest of the head stand?

you fools while you talk of hair those Chinese Commies are cornering the moon cheese market!!!

I married one. Brown hair, red beard.......all of his other hair is mostly brown, some of it's blonde......it's weird, he's like some sort of gorilla hybrid.

Real men shave their heads!

I think this demands pictorial proof.

*refuses to post pics of her husband's body hair*

I can look for a pic of his face though......the contrast between his beard and his hair is hilarious.

not his most attractive picture.........but you can see some of the contrast.

Aww, how did you know it was more the body hair I was curious about? But, fine, if I must settle for "hilarious" instead of "intriguing", then go ahead.

Mixed or dyed, specified. :)

If I had hair, it would be mostly grey.
I object! :mad:

So I voted red, just to help your thread to its well-deserved demise. :p

Fine then, point out my ignorance for the world to see. You've thought of everything. *bows*

But it does show off some of his equipment, at least, and he ain't too shabby looking, so don't go fishing for compliments.

Kooky, like a calico cat.

Shaved head... point... but I asked about hair color, not existence. :P
*pretends that wasn't just a lame cop-out*

I think grey goes to what it used to be. Failing that, it's mixed.
*pretends that had been thought about before as well*

Fine then, point out my ignorance for the world to see. You've thought of everything. *bows*

So it would seem. *cough*Asidefromshavedorgreyhair*cough*

...well, I tried.... <-_->

When I was a boy I looked at my dad's bald head and asked him "Am I going to go bald when I get older?"

"No" he said, "balding is hereditory from the female side of the family."

That was incorrect, and based on wrong facts as well. My hair started receding while I still had pimples, and by thirty I looked just like him. Blame the X chromosome why dontcha?

Yeah, so guys if you want to keep your hair, you can try the same drug they use in Advanced hair clinics (Finasteride .2mg, cheap at such low doses) but I've lost so much that the risk of side effects makes it not worthwhile. Scalp massage apparently helps too, even just at the level of brushing your hair often. Regular exercise and low stress levels ... so basically everything I didn't do when I was a young fella.

Some chicks dig the bowling-ball look, but you're never going to pass for young in any kind of light once your pate starts to shine ... :cool:

So I suppose now is not the best time to tell you that there is also a strain that goes on the Y chromosome, or that your mother had it out for you to the point where she gave you the bad X.

To be fair, what he said was the mainstream science at the time (70's).

It's kind of fun to have your head played like a bongo drum too. Probably not so great for the brain, but it gets a laugh at parties :)

Well, I have thick brown hair. It turns gold in the summer. Not blond, not dirty blond, but gold. It actually shines. So far, I am the only one I know who has hair that does that.

When I grow facial hair, it starts out black as black can be. It then proceeds to the same golden color of my hair during the summer(This apparently isn't just a summer occurance-I grew a beard during the winter and it happened, however it was a stark contrast to my grey-ish brown hair. Not that I have grey hairs at my age, just that my hair tends to be a dull brown color that seems to be a mix between brown and grey during the winter).

My body hair, now that is black. Not fuzzy at all. Coarse black hair. Yay.

So basically, in the summer imagine a pale, golden haired, black-hairy chested male. Woot. I thank the mutt genese I have.

So, if any of you ladies find that secksy, give me a call at:

1-900-SHN-ROKS

:D

My hair does that too!
But I'm female.
And it's started to only do that during part of the summer. During other parts it just remains brown. Maybe because I've grown it out so much? (Though I don't know why that would affect it...)

On top of having the different color hair on my head than on my face, as my hair gets closer to the roots, it gets lighter. So mine merely shifts color around summer because I get more haircuts then.

It only does it when I leave it shaggy. Which is how I like it. I only get it cut when It gets to difficult to manage. I love my golden hair. Girls seem to love it(It's the one thing I have going for me).

:/

Not sure why length would matter though. I assume mine changes color due to sunlight slightly bleaching it or something of the sort. Maybe the length of your hair means that a lower percentage is getting bleached by the sun?

That's what I assumed too. So perhaps it is causing the lower percentage of natural bleaching.

Pretty much everyone's hair is darker at the roots than the tips; whether or not the difference is noticeable is solely dependent on how long the hair is.

I don't know, and I don't particularly care aside from knowing that it happens.

I love your hair Raistlins Apprentice. Even though I have no real fashion sense at all.

Ah... I made someone feel good, and I get huggles out of it.

This goes against everything I believe in.

Teach you to be nice.

I prefer blonde guys.

Depends on the personality, skin color, and facial structure.

Some people look good with black hair, while others look good with brown or red. Others still look good with blonde, platinum, white, or just plain grey hair. Even so, people usually look good with more than one hair color, and more often than not, one of those colors won't fit because of their personality. Don't laugh. Black hair just fits shy/moody people. Lighter colors, not so much. This goes for both sexes.

As for myself, I'm a natural blonde (platinum), though my hair's darkened significantly over the years. It's more of an Auburn color now, with blonde highlights. The funny thing is, platinum would look great on me, but the darker shade just seems to fit better. I'd probably dye it to see what it looks like now that I'm older, but I'm guessing it just wouldn't fit as well as my current shade.

Such is hair, such is the human body.

Little love for us blond men, it seems. :(

I prefer blonde guys.

Well there's one, at least. :p

I prefer brown. The only guy I've dated who hasn't been a complete jerk-off has had brown hair. That and it's so incredibally soothing. Like a flowy mass of chocolate. *salivates*:eek:

Yes, I almost have a fetish for it. Darker hair does arouse me, but not as much.

You may have the solution to the troubles in the middle-east there. They need to act more shy, and everyone would get along better. Or they could all try bleaching for a year and see how that goes!

On the bleaching thing though (and this might not be everyone) I found that the dark brown in my (younger) hair bleached out easily, from sun or chemicals, but left a much tougher coppery tint which it was almost impossible to bleach out. With enough peroxide it would go a sort of yellow, but it took enough to make half of it fall out, and it had the consistency of fishing-line.

1: You know exactly what I mean, though I still saw that twister coming from a mile away. Funny all the same. :p

2: Try food coloring. It supposedly gives interesting results.

Sounds like my friend's sister's hair. Apparently she used Kool-aid powder with a lot less water added than for actual Kool-aid. Her hair is now quite pink and it is dyed as if normal permanent dye had been used. But it looks good (even if the mother is pissed).

Yeah, I've heard about the Kool-Aid treatment. Though pink, I dunno.

Well, obviously she's female (since I said sister), and she's young. Like middle school. Or maybe first year high school. I think. Definitely not in college yet, and definitely no longer in elementary school. :P

Well, I know you said "she", but most of the cases of pink hair I've seen have been on rather *ahem* ugly specimens...

Black ... no, wait, brown ... ah, no, maybe blond? red? I don't know! Who cares if he's intelligent, caring, and I like his looks and attitude, it doesn't matter.

On the head, I don't care. The rest should be shaved off as far as possible.

grey

Yay.

It doesn't matter, but I suppose I have a slight preference for black .

I find the choice of thread names interesting.

The "female hair color" thread is titled, "Blondes, Brunettes, and Redheads." Object names. The individual woman is gone, just her hair color is used to define her.

But this thread openly identifies the (human) owner of the hair (the male). Hair is possessed by a man.

Just another subject-object tidbit to chew on from the Great Feminist Lesbian Hairy-Legs Conspiracy.

Black or dark brown. Short dark hair with a little grey on the sides is super hot as well.

I've dated guys with black, brown, red, dyed, grey, and no hair and found them all equally attractive, but not based on their hair. I've never really had much of a preference for blond guys, but I wouldn't rule it out if he had a warm personality, good sense of humor, intelligence... all the stuff that I do find attractive.

:)I have this thing for sandy blonde, or very light brownblondish....

But it does show off some of his equipment, at least, and he ain't too shabby looking, so don't go fishing for compliments.
he is pretty cute......it just doesn't show in that picture so much.


Kooky, like a calico cat.
yeah, I know. His hair was strawberry blonde growing up, but as he aged it got darker......well, most places. His beard still grows in strawberry blonde/red depending on the time of year. Some of his other hair is still red/blonde, and some of it's brown.

brown for definite. although i should really have voted for red i guess. orange would have been better.

Brown or black. Blond is alright but I prefer darker. I don't like red at all.

I married one. Brown hair, red beard.......all of his other hair is mostly brown, some of it's blonde......it's weird, he's like some sort of gorilla hybrid.

i'm a bit like that too, i have every colour of body hair. but my hair is orange and my beard is reddish-brown.

I like black with red steaks....or black in general. Or silver. Its sexy

interesting you should say that. i've always found it odd that men don't get called blondes, brinettes and redheads and yet women do. well, i get "ginger!" shouted at me a lot, although that's supposedly an insult i guess it is somewhat objectifying.

he is pretty cute......it just doesn't show in that picture so much.

He's got nice blue eyes, good color with his hair color.

Black hair. I can't resist a nice, smart, good looking guy with raven black hair. It just doesn't happen. When it comes to hair, the darker it is, the happier I am. ;)

Blond, for me. That public school (pablik skayl) look is just... aah. Perfect.

Everything else? Nah. I'm super-selective when it comes to chaps; I go for the boss class and no-one else. :p

Bottle - topic title: you have an excellent point. Of course, the question has to be asked, is it an example of unconscious socialised sexism, or conscious discrimination? Either way, it's somewhat telling.

Why am I replying to this thread? I'm a guy, I have brown hair so I'm gonna say the moon is made of cheese!

I'm not really sure what my natural hair colour is right now. I know it's black, but that artificial.

Many moons ago, I think my hair was naturally brown.

Definitely depends on length and skin tone. :3
Brown hair is hott though. ;]

Or it's just that I'm a writer and think too much about my word choice...

Where is all the love for blond?

I voted for the red-hot ginger boys! ;)

I like black with red steaks

Pittsburgh style, eh?

*runs*

Everything else? Nah. I'm super-selective when it comes to chaps; I go for the boss class and no-one else. :pThere is something scintillating about the idea of corrupting someone like that, isn't there? ;)

Brown hair. Hot guys always have brown hair.

Blonde guys are hot, btu they get drooled over too much. Feh.

Redhaired guys... the only red haired guy I've met IRL is a nerd (but one of my best friends). The only red haired guys I ever thought hot were the Weasley brothers (except Percy... he's a nerd too, and an evil one at that) in the Harry Potter movies... (yeah, I'm a Rupert Grint/James/Oliver Phelps fangirl... >.>)

Black haired guys are also always hot, provided they're not emo.

As for other colors...
