I personally think you look better blonde in your photo, but that's not saying you shouldn't try it, that's only one person's opinion.  You never know until you try something. 

One way you can tell what it will do for your complexion is to wrap your hair up in something white and then get a shirt that is the same color as the haircolor you want to try and put the shirt on.  You can see how your skin looks then, whether it will look washed out or bring out imperfections or whether it will make it really glow and look great.  Even if it doesn't wind up looking great, you may still want to try it and just wear skin make up (that's what I would do anytime I wore this black wig I had, just always wear powder on my face to fix how bad it made my complexion!)
