I prefer being brunette with light highlights or vice versa.

White culture has been the dominant culture in real and on screen world for such a long time that humans are used to seeing them as colonial lords and de facto gods. Not all of them are heavenly and not all of others are hellish, its just about perspective through subconscious filters.
LOL even Jesus is seen through that lens.
Um, no. We are all saying that the vast majority of people look best with their natural hair color/ shade they had as a child. This isn’t some kind of discussion about colonialism.

Its just hair and eyes, play with color and contacts. Its boring to just be blonde or brunette, when one can be both. Its not like its your own choice, just inherited like race, religion etc.

The only natural blonde I’ve ever seen look spectacular as a brunette is Katherine Heigl when she was in Firefly Lane. Absolutely gorgeous.

I’m a brunette with blue eyes, but I have olive skin. I look awful blonde. It washes me out. I have shiny thick healthy dark hair- makes my eyes pop more too.
+1
All of these women look terrible as blondes and gorgeous as brunettes. Because they’re actually brunettes.

True. Medium brunette and darker look better a brunettes. Almost no one looks better when they dye their hair darker than their natural color. Dark hair dye just doesn’t look good. However, the dark blonde/mousy brown hair natural hair color is terrible and never flattering. Unfortunately that is color of lot of adults that were naturally blonde as children. These women always look better going blonder or at least highlighting
Agree. Non one looks good with darker hair than their natural hair color. I was born with ashy color ( very common in Eastern Europe), neither blond, but not too dark either. When I dyed it to blond, my face was completely washed out. When I dyed it to very dark brown or black, I looked terrible- the color looked way too harsh considering my fair skin and light green eyes. Now that I'm over 50, I just dye it one shade lighter to cover gray to look as natural as I can.

The first one is a decent blond haircut vs a horrible brunette haircut. So not apples to apples.

It all depends on the person’s facial features and coloring. I am east Asian… I would look terrible as a blonde.
As an South Asian woman, I find East Asian women to be the prettiest in the world. But, you are right that their facial features and coloring favors darker hair.

I actually think many women look better with darker hair myself included. Of course some people look better blonde.
Yeah, that one's Fake-ity Fake.
No, she does not look better.

I keep asking whether the boost in appearance is real or just perception. If someone was already attractive as a brunette, would they look even more so once they go blonde, or does the change exaggerate certain features in a way that shifts how we see them?
There’s an example that really stands out to me. In the blonde version she looks striking, and her features appear softer. When she switches to brunette, suddenly certain things stand out more, like her too-big-nose shape/size, and she looks noticeably less polished. I’m trying to understand what causes this. Is it contrast, lighting, skin tone, or just the way our eyes interpret color and shape?
Here are the references I’m talking about
Blonde
Brunette
Curious to hear how others interpret this. ANy other examples of going blonde is better vs going burneete ?
other examples of stars
I looked horrific blonde. Tried 6 different shades.

I think you cherry picked examples where the actresses had an unflattering haircut or shade of brown that didn’t match their skin tone.
In the first photo the actress has long blond hair versus a short ugly brunette cut. Many of the others are natural blondes whose hair looks very flat in a uniform dark brown.
That said I do think that a lot of Caucasian women in their teens/20’s look good with blonde hair and highlights. However, as they age into their 30’s and 40’s it flips and blonde hair becomes very aging and washes you out.
Generally, everyone looks best within a few shades of their natural color. Any extremes highlights imperfections—and blonde—especially bleach blonde is a very extreme color.
