Nobody says ditchwater. Let it go.

It’s not “dishwater” blonde.


It’s DITCHWATER blonde.


DITCH. Not “dish”.




FFS, didn’t any of you watch reruns of “I Love Lucy”?


And dishwater is gray. Ditchwater is sorta reddish because of red clay.


Y’all don’t do dishes OR get out much.


Lay off the Sunday night wine.

I have a feeling there are a lot of things you "never knew" were "rascist" (sic). That are, indeed, racist.


Well that's not one of them. Olive skinned has to do with the undertone of your skin and is found in different races. Consider yourself informed.

Especially since I've never ever heard anyone refer to olive skinned people in a deragatory way. Is ivory complexion a racist term as well?


Yes because of poachers

I don’t know why but I find it hilarious someone has been calling it the wrong term their entire life, and is now yelling at people for using the correct term.

Babe, it’s dishwater. You can google it.

I laughed out loud.

Especially the “sooooooooooooooo”


DP.

I’ve never heard of EITHER dishwater or ditchwater blonde.

I think y’all are arguing about some nonsense local slang.


NP. Nope. Dishwater blonde is a common term used throughout the US *and* other English-speaking countries. It's been around a long time. It's in the dictionary.

Never heard of "ditchwater blonde" and seriously doubt it's a thing. The water in ditches will vary in color depending on where you are, so it doesn't make sense as a descriptor -- could be reddish, muddy brown, black, etc.. Whereas "dishwater" is immediately evocative of the kind of grayish color someone is referring to with dishwater blonde.


OMG it’s in the DiCtIoNaRY?!?!

The statement stands. I’ve never heard this term in my life and I have lived in various places in the Eastern US and Canada.

Dirty blonde, that’s a term that I’ve heard frequently.

How old are you?

FYI they are not the same thing:



Dirty blonde and dishwater blonde are often used interchangeably to describe a natural, dark-ash blonde hair color (around a level 7) that blends light brown and blonde tones.

While both represent a similar, low-maintenance, and "mousy" appearance, "dishwater" usually implies a cooler, ashier, and less vibrant tone, whereas "dirty blonde" can include warmer golden streaks.

What??? Olive skinned people are white. Olive skin is a trait where white people tan nicely and don’t have pink undertones. Like Italians.

I’m pale but have olive undertones. No one would call me olive skinned though since I’m so pale.


This. Also, I am a white person with almond shaped eyes. It is a compliment regardless of race -- they are my best feature.


What an ignorant thing to say when, for centuries, women of Asian descent have been sold tools and techniques to “fix” their eyes to achieve a more hooded, rounded look. Go on YouTube and you’ll find tutorials to this day.

Honestly, the ignorance.

Just because you’ve never heard it doesn’t mean anything. You also don’t have much familiarity with blond hair if you’re unfamiliar with the various terms used to describe it.

Unbolded statement is accurate. Bolded statement is completely illogical.

I have hair that's naturally dishwater blond so I know it's a thing: It's an ashy, dark blond often seen on people who had much lighter blond hair as a child. Now that hair color is trending thanks to Taylor Swift and other celebrities going for it.

Are you slow? It’s a color that has many hues and terms to describe such. Is all blue the same to you? You’re just clueless and doubling down.
