Why is dark hair, light eyes and white skin considered to be attractive?
Because it’s an unusual combination, and people like what’s unusual. Having white skin and light eyes is actually a beauty standars in most places in the world, but if you mix it with dark hair it becomes way more exotic.I just made an internet search for “dark hair light eyes and white skin” and the first image that popped out is this one:Not bad at all, is it? I have to admit that if I think of someone with these characteristics I think of someone who’s attractive, be it a man or a woman, and the people I have known in real life who are naturally born with these features receive quite a lot of attention for it, even if they might not exactly meet the typical beauty standards. I guess it just “works” with most people.
Don't black women know that them straightening their hair is a badge of self hate and shame of being black?
As a black woman who regularly straightens and relaxes her hair, this question, to be quite frank, pisses me off. Why do people always assume that we are ashamed of being black or trying to be white just because we relax and straighten our hair? While that may have been the case for some women way back when, today in 2013 I relax MY hair because it's easier to style. I relax MY hair because that's how I ******* like it, and I think anyone who doesn't like it should mind their own business. I am proud to be black and I celebrate our culture daily-- the fact that I alter the stage of my hair does not diminish that. Times have changed and not every sista needs to be rocking dreads or go natural to show her black pride. Stop being ridiculous and stop worrying about with WE do with OUR bodies.

I have blonde hair, blue/green eyes and pale skin, and I hate it so much :/?
Okay I'll start off my saying this isn't crazily low self esteem or anything, because I don't think I'm ugly. I just really really hate the fact that I have bluey green eyes and pale skin. My hair is naturally dark blonde but I lighten it because I just look wrong otherwise! Having pale skin also makes it a lot more obvious when I go red, which has actually led me to have quite bad confidence. I think brown eyes, tanned skin and big brown or black wavy hair is so much more attractive. Like Italians or Spanish. (and it doesn't help that my best friend is half italian and all of above, not to mention gorgeous- well jealous!) I always get referred to as 'cute' because I'm really petite too, and the cute look tends to look better on me than anything else. I've considered contacts as well but I have real trouble touching my eyes so it'd take forever to get them in. I guess I just need help on how to accept the way I look?! :/
My husband has blonde hair, blue eyes and fair skin, his and the rest of the family has dark complexion, hair and brown eyes. How is this possible?
Good Question,There is such thing as being a carrier of a blonde or blue eyed trait, meaning than maybe his dad, mom, grandfather, and grandmother had a trait with blonde or blue eyed. This means one of their relatives had blonde or blue eyes.With traits, there is a 1/4 chance of having them(depending on situation).Also, mutations are possible.
Is it okay for a white person to compliment a black person's hair?
I’m gonna make an attempt to answer this in a way that reveals the actual issue. I’ve been reading through many of the other answers and comments, and I’ve seen the wailing. “OMG why can’t we all compliment each other?”I totally agree. Compliments are great. No, scratch that—they’re f*cking awesome.What ISN’T awesome for a black woman is getting a beautiful compliment about her hair that is immediately (or shortly after) followed up by one or all of the following:*person grabs a fistful of hair* *plays in it* *gets offended when you are horrified or jerk away*“Is it all yours?”“That’s a weave, though, right?”“Don’t you wish you could actually grow all that? Sucks it has to be extensions.” (Said to me once….I actually wasn’t wearing extensions and it was all my hair -_-).“You’d look better if it was straight though, just sayin’”“Why don’t you straighten it? It would be SOOOO much prettier and you’d fit in more.”“OOOOOH yeah, you’re welcome. It’s so funky, haha, I wanna try it for Halloween.”“I wish you’d let me touch it, I don’t know why you’re so finicky about that…” (Because some styles are ruined when hands are all up in them. Not all of our styles can be played in and tossed about like y’all. Lol).“Is that really your hair? It’s just…I know [insert random black friend] hair is like .,..you know… that really dry African hair …don’t you all have that and just weave nice hair on?”The list goes on. Black women don’t mind compliments, but typically, we don’t get compliments without them being coupled with statements like these. It happens often enough for many of us to become wary of compliments in general. Think about it. If your neighbour had a puppy that would yap happily when it saw you, and then tried to bite when you came close to it, wouldn’t you eventually grow wary and avoid it altogether? Suppose your friends had the same experience. Eventually word would get out, and as more people tried their luck and failed, it would just become an unspoken rule that everyone avoids the puppy even though it continues to seem friendly and harmless at first sight.Kinda the same idea. I’m not taking up for any black women who are overly aggressive in response to initial compliments, but most of us are going to be at least cautious whenever we get one, not wanting to get too excited or relax too much lest the follow up pop our balloons.
What do I need to do to get the 50's pin up girl look?
Okay, I haven't posted in a while but your question made me come out of hiding. You have the face for a 50's house wife I think you would be perfect for that look. When you say pinup girl I think black Raven hair, pale white skin and tats. So with that being said I will give my advice and opinion on both =) I dress up like the 50's house wife but with a gothy twist so a mix of Nicole Kidman and Morticia =) Okay the 50's house wife - You have short hair so I would curl it with a curling iron or hot rollers make it bouncy like Gwen in her "Cool" video. The makeup should be light but your lips deep red and matte. Your eyes put a light tan shadow and dark black eyeliner with a point at the tip. Your clothes I would do a I love Lucy dress, those are my favorite I have a few and they get lots of compliments. Tight at the top and flares out at the bottom and high round toed heels. If you want a 50's pinup girl look I say dye your hair black follow the makeup tips I stated above but change the clothes up to a tight, animal print dress. Check out pinupgirl.com they have the greatest clothes and pics you can go by. I hope this helped some and good luck love =)
What are the popular girls like at your school?!?
(Middle school) The popular girls at my school have long hair. It must be at least a half inch before your shoulder blades-long. Their hair is pin-straight, ranging from light-brown to dark brown. They have dark eyes, as well. Their skin is light-to-tan, perfect, blemish-free, and eyeliner, eyeshadow, and mascara is the key. Two piercings in each ear is really in right now. They aren't mean to your face, but you know inside they talk about you sometimes, and they don't pay any attention to you unless you talk to them yourself. They have so much money, get manicures every three weeks, go to Bermuda, Disney, Florida, Hawaii for vacation, move to huge houses on private streets even when they have perfectly nice houses that most would kill to live in. They also have their own maids, housekeepers, lawn people. They go to the mall almost every day. Plus they wear Juicy, Uggs, Hollister, Aeropostale, American Eagle....lots of designer brands..and this is even in 6th, 7th, and 8th. They all have gone out with half the boys in the school (one girl has dated almost every boy in my grade), talk a lot, teachers love them, are natural flirts. Our school, despite it designer-wearing popular girls, is focused on athletics--and so everybody is toned and muscular in a not-obvious way, they are skinny too. One of the most popular girls in our school (has her own Facebook page even though she is 12) has super blonde, super straight hair and is super tall---. What about you guys? AND WHY DO ALL THE POPULAR GIRLS HAVE SUPER SHINY, SUPER STRAIGHT, HEALTHY HAIR?
