Quote have also been all hair colors and I think blonde hair received 100 times more attention. It was almost uncomfortable. You walk in a store and you have tons of men staring at you. I feel more anonymous as a brunette. I still get attention but men dont run into walls trying to get a second look at you
 
Not true! (from an aging brunette who stills stops traffic!!!!)
 
I favor long healthy shiny clean hair. Add perfectly straight white teeth, good tight olive complextion to  match the hair color, and a body that men desire and women envy. (for myself anyways!)

Oh, I love this question!  I always change my mind. I grew uo a level 6 brown but always loved blonde best.  I was finally a blonde for 10 years and, during that time,  thought everyone in the world should be blonde b/c bloned ruled my world.  Then I suddenly decided that brunette was beautiful and SULTRY.  I have been med brunette, blonde,  light brown w/ dark blonde highlights, #30 auburn all in one year (hmm, wonder why I can't seem to grow my top layer out--crispy critter that it is-hehehe) and I can't decide what is more striking.  I guess it depends on skin tone plus the attitude of the gal wearing the color.

(I don't know if that link will work)  3 brunette models that really, really stand out.  I guess it's just preference with blonde or brunette.  It's funny, their shirts say "What is sexy?" lol... thought it was perfect for this post.

Thanks for all the comments guys! It seems that blondes seem to get all the attention lol I figure I may as well trial blonde hair (its something ive always wanted), if it means wearing makeup all the time and applying fake tan twice a week then so be it!

I am have naturally almost black hair, green eye's, and pale skin, I have had blonde, brown, red and every combo of the three. I hated the red, When I had brown hair everyone always thought I looked older than I am, with blonde hair no one ever thinks I am even close to my age (33), and I am talking about strangers not family members trying to complement me. most people guess that i'm 25-28 and they always think my 15 yr old son is my brother. I guess that more than anything it's about the way you feel with blonde or brown hair, I feel plain and boring with brown hair, and sexy and young with blonde hair, my family, especially my husband, love's my hair blonde, so the bleach is here to stay.  My mother is the oppsite, everyone thought she was much older with blonde hair, and she is now colored black and she get's complements all the time on her hair, but do keep in mind that her hair is thinning and when blonde it was see thru and with it black it looks much much much thicker than it is.

I've been a blonde, brunette, and a redhead.  I got the most attention as a redhead! 

I don't have a blonde personality and always felt wrong with blonde hair, even though I love it on others.

Yeah, I believe that. I wore a frosted blonde wig along with the whole Texas gal getup - denim skirt, cowboy boots - a couple of times back in the day and it was amazing the attention - some goober followed me through the airport, not to mention the idiots who crane their necks and practically crash their cars to look at you while driving! It's pretty funny. I actually felt silly and didn't find it all that fun; plus, I looked completely differently at the men who behaved like that - what is your problem?!

Interesting sociological experiment!

To be honest, I look at girls with beautiful blonde hair also, but without the obvious oogle factor, because it IS so compelling to look at!

So there you go.

I feel more anonymous as a brunette. I still get attention but men dont run into walls trying to get a second look at you . My best friend recently dyed her blonde hair brown and after a week is already dying it back blonde because she misses the attention so much. The thing is the damage from all the bleach. Its hard to keep a nice looking head of blonde hair and the maintenance is crazy dying every 3-4 weeks if you are naturally dark.

a lady i work with has super thick wavy waist length (real) auburn hair......people are always commenting to her that so many women spend a fortune to get her hair color, i love her hair.....i've been coloring my hair blonde since i was 14 and i've had it done darker a couple of times (once not on purpose, one intentional) and it just didnt suit me....in fact, people at work didnt respond with 'what did you do to your hair?' they said 'are you feeling ok, you look ill'.....so blonde is best for me, but on other people i love any hair color as long as its thick healthy shiny hair!

I personally think brunette is awesome!  I have brown hair that is in pretty pristine condition...virgin hair and it's just at my shoulders and I get compliments wherever I go.  I think there's just "something" about long brown hair that's in good condition, it looks like silk.

It depends on the girl more then the hair.  Ive been every friggin color under the sun, lol, and I get MUCH more attention with black hair then I did as platinum blonde.  At the same time though, I am also extremely pale and have grey eyes, so black on me looks more dramatic and exotic.

I loove blond hair.But it looks plain rediculous on me.
For me though haircolor evokes different parts of me.
Like when I'm brunnette I feel exotic and mysterious
when I'm  blonde I feel very uninhibited,funloving
But when I'm a redhead I'm very fiesty
 
It sounds crazy but its fun to play into their different stereotypical roles.

I agree with everyone, what hair colors look good on a person depends on their skin coloring.   My hair is naturally dark and I am more comfortable and feel 'sexier' with it dark.  I tried going blond and I only kept it that way for 1 day before I dyed it back.  It looked horrible and it just wasn't my personality.   Blond is as much a personality as a color too....

Oh, and I do agree also about the dark hair and light eyes mix.  Some people look so good with natural dark hair and icey blue eyes!
Think Adriana Lima, from Victoria's Secret, she could not look better!

Kristie, I agree about the tanning part!

Sometimes, if you are not a natural blonde and have dyed blonde hair and pale skin you can look really washed out.

I notice that as soon as I tan I look *much* better with my hair!  lol!

I'm Scandinavian/German, naturally a brown-eyed dark blonde. In earlier years of my life when I was tan, I looked really striking with my hair almost white blonde with light ashy highlights. I'm 6" tall so was the classic tall, tan California blonde. When I stopped tanning, I began to look washed out so switched to the pale skinned, dark-haired exotic look which suits my personality more. I definitely got more attention (particularly from ethnic men) as a blonde. However, the love of my life these last 15 years wouldn't have given me a second look had I been blonde. He's never dated a blonde woman or one with a tan because he just isn't attracted to those looks at all. Pale-skinned brunette is the only look he's interested in. I got really lucky when I met him--I'd only just changed my look a few months before!
