to think the phrase "blondes have more fun" isn't true?

[HeartsAreEveryWhere]

In my very early 20s I went from brunette to blonde. I loved it but it took a lot of upkeep etc and I don't have the time or money to be getting my roots fixed every couple of weeks.

When I going out with friends drinking and had to show my ID to the bouncer (I was brunette in the photo) and they would always comment, so is it true do blonde have more fun?

And for me it definitely wasn't. I got the same amount of attention etc.

I dye my hair darker now and absolutely love the colour.

No of course it isn't true. It's just a hair colour. I will say though that I feel more confident blonde, t's just the colour that suits me the most.

I was brunette, now blonde again (Aveda's lightest!) and I absolutely feel more 'me' again..But I'm having the same life & amount of fun I did as a brunette. Costing me a bomb, but more than worth it (for me)

Do you really need to ask this question?

Lots of people don't seem to realise that natural blondes do actually exist.

The phrase 'blondes have more fun' generally applies itself to platinum dyed bimbos.

Your hair colour does not govern your personality or how you live your life. You must be fairly simple to believe that that is true.

One hair colour is not 'better' than another colour.

This thread could very rapidly take a turn downhill.

Eh?? I don't think having fun really has anything to do with your hair. Seriously..........

'The phrase 'blondes have more fun' generally applies itself to platinum dyed bimbos.'

Lovely bit of stereotyping there prettypolly

Of course it's bollocks, you might as well have posted 'AIBU to think a stitch in time doesn't actually save nine'.

Akiss, sorr, I really didn't mean it that way!

It's just some people seem to forget that natural blondes exist, and go to their experience of'when I dyed my hair blonde, I did not have more fun'.

When OBVIOUSLY hair colour has nothing to do with anything.

I'm not a platinum blonde, prettypolly but if I were, I'd be doing this face right now at your wild generalisation.

I'm not saying one hair colour is better than the other, but of course some suit others better than others.

And of course natural blondes exist? I never said they didn't.

I was just wondering because I've been both and didn't notice a difference.

I always thought it was a sexist term implying blondes are the opposite of frigid and goes hand in hand with 'gentlemen prefer blondes'

It's a hideous expression anyway.

Really?

It was a slogan from an advert in the 50's

It's not a fact

I was just wondering because I've been both and didn't notice a difference.

Erm, that's because you didn't morph into another person. YOU were still...YOU. .

"AIBU to think a stitch in time doesn't actually save nine'

When it's said by the mother of eight as she sews up her husband's pj's, YWBU.

I thought that the whole "Blonde's" thing was because the Romans made prostitutes (and therefore "free" women who had an income), dye their hair Blonde.

Marilyn Monroe then exploited the phrase.

I'm a natural blonde and I am now a bright red head. I prefer read to the blonde.

Are you a little tiny bit hard of thinking?

Well aren't you just lovely

Yes but you would look different if you went from blonde to red, or brunette to blonde.

Hair can change a persons appearance.

My red hair makes me look more tanned and slightly older then I did blonde. It changes how you look and sometimes how you feel

I think the colour of your hair can affect how you feel about yourself/your confidence and can sometimes change the way you feel about 'you'. If not, then why are most of us dying grey hair when it starts appearing?

I've been blonde in my 20's, it didn't suit my colouring at all and no I certainly didn't have more fun. I didn't get any more male attention (the whole 'gentlemen prefer blondes' thing) - if anything, I got less, but probably because I felt pale and washed out and somehow that came across in the way I interacted with people.

I lasted 6 weeks as a blonde, didn't even get my roots done, I went straight back to brunette.

I'm a natural blonde but I don't think about it unless someone like you makes a comment OP.
I think you make your own fun by your behaviour, not your appearance.

From my personal experience - Yes, blondes do have more fun.
But that's just me!

In general think red hair has replaced blonde as the most fetishised/desirable hair colour in recent years. Practically every second bloke is mad for the gingers, Una Healy and the like.

I'm brunette...PAH!

Do you feel like I've insulted you Sally ?

I think blonde hair is lovely, natural or not. I enjoyed having that colour hair but it was too much upkeep and I hate dark roots.

All I said was that even though I looked different (always had the same colour before then) I didn't notice a difference in attention etc.

I honestly cannot see a problem with what I said
