When I was younger I had blonde hair that was almost white, and I loved it. I loved being able to say I had blonde hair, and I didn’t care about the saying that blondes were stupid. I felt like I could prove that wrong. Everybody loved my hair, and said they wished they had my hair, and it was probably one of the things that I was most proud of. The only thing that I didn’t like was that it was wavy – and not in a good way. However, as I got older my hair started to turn golden blonde, and then become brown. It was the same for my older sister, and also my mum. However it wasn’t a nice brown, it was a sort mousey brown- my mum’s colour, and to be honest I’d never really liked my mum’s hair colour. Now, aged 14, my hair is mostly brown, and there are only a few strands of blonde on top. As we’ve had almost no sun in England this summer, and I didn’t go abroad, my hair is darker than ever. I hate it. I have, like the girl in the article, considered dying my hair. Speeding up the process. However, I’d dye it really dark brown, or perhaps really blonde – like I used to be. But I’d love to have dark chocolate hair – and I wont get that.

Ha, its different here in the south. Blue eyes/blonde hair are hot to guys! And guys like big boobs at my school. I’m a blue eyed Blonde haired boobless sweetheart and I’m proud! (Well maybe not the boon part)
A lot of people in my Honor’s classes are brunettes, and blonde sticks out. I don’t wanna dye my hair, I love it! You’re probably in middle/high school and that’s to young for a breast reduction. I do wear contacts but not colored ones. Embrace the blondenesss! I’m in all Honors/AP classes, so I don’t care about the dumb Blondel stereotype. Don’t give in! Its just giving them more power. When the right guy comes along, he will love you and your blondness

Naturally I have light blonde hair, and my eyes change colors from blue to green to grey (they’re grey most of the time) Last year in 8th grade, I was tired of being treated like a bobble-head, so I dyed my hair light brown.. It durned out the darkest brown E V E R !
People didn’t recognize me, No kidding ! My choir teacher marked me absent because he didn’t recognize me ! Everyone just thought it was going to be a one dye job, but I kept it brown for half of the year, and then everyone yelled at me and made me dye it back! I hate my blonde hair… But everyone else likes it

I live in Finland and here are many blondes and almost everyone of them dyes their hair black or dark brown. So I don’t see it as a weird thing. And nearly everyone here has blue eyes so they all envy my brown eyes.

UGH I love brown hair! Me? I have natural bright, fiery, really curly red hair with blonde highlights. A lot of people ask me if I dye it (no I don’t ) and say they’d kill for my hair. Okay, cool great but if they seriously had my thick, unruly hair they’d tire of it wanna do something about it too! I wanted to dye it brown and it think it’d work on me because I’m tan unlike most redheaded people I know (Go multi-racial people! lol) And I’m totally up for like a blowout or whatever. I don’t want to stand out all the time, you know? Seriously. You could probably see me from a mile away hehe. I wanna try something different but 1) My family, all brunettes, get all worked up like they got ants in their pants whenever I say something! and 2) I don’t want to have to deal with people going “WOAH!! What’d you do to your hair?! Why?!!! I loved it!!!!?”
Bleeh.. That’s just me hehe

Oh wow, those ppl at ur school need to get a life! I mean… they shuld be dieing to be a blonde with blue eyes! I mean, I have black hair (not dyed) and really dark brown eyes (no colored contacts) and I would luv to have lighter colored eyes cuze girls with blue or like hazel eyes are so, aluring.

And basschick, ur soo right cuze i barely ever c in blonde’s anymore… other than on book covers and in movies but im sure they prob died it for the job. It seems like if ur a blonde your legendery! Esp. if u hve blue eyes. And those stereotypical ppl who think blondes are dumb need to snap out of fantasy world and step into reality!

I have naturally long blonde hair and blue eyes, and I love it. Unfortunately, no one else at my school does. Practically everyone at my school says I need to cut my hair very short (shoulder length at the absolute longest), dye it dark, and try green or brown colored contacts. According to them, a breast reduction (since I’m naturally a 36 DDD) wouldn’t hurt either. Almost every guy I know prefers brunettes, and most natural blondes in my school have already gone brunette. Then there’s that ridiculous stereotype that you’d think no one would actually believe about blondes (especially ones with blue eyes and big boobs) being stupid. It may be cliche, but a lot of people expect me to be a complete imbecile. Then people find it strange that I got a 100% on every trigonometry and vocabulary test this year, speak read and write Spanish, tutor geometry and Spanish, and got an 1880 on the SAT (average is 1460). It can be very annoying when everyone is trying to find something to label you as.

I’m pretty sure that nobody meant that blondes are prettier. I think their just saying that FOR THEM blonde is prettier. Or not.
