View Full Version : blond highlights on fellas?
Thinking of getting some blond highlights put in my hair. Ive got dark brown hair with that messed up style. Ive never had highlights before. Ive seen a few blokes with it and it looked pretty decent. However i've also heard that blond highlights are mainly worn by gay fellas though? (not that ive got anything against them, im just not that way inclined).
What do the ladies prefer?

As a professional gay man myself, I can tell you it's not that great a thing.
Full head of blonde highlights equals ultimate lose. It's bad when it's short, and it's worse when it's long. Why? Looks like birdshit, amazingly unoriginal, amazingly overdone, amazingly tacky.
As for suggestions what you should get, I'm quite stuck. It would depend on your exact hair colour, what your hair is like, even the shape of your swede. Even then it would be hard to tell you as I recently posted a thread asking for ideas myself. I was told to purchase some hair magazines, I did - They had some great ideas for cuts but the only colour being sported was by this terribly sexy guy... totally ruined by a head of blonde highlights. I got more inspiration from the women's kaleidoscope section.
Anyway good luck, and don't be another trendy-chav. ;o

it's not the actual highlights that'd put me off a guy, but the idea of him sitting in a chair having them done like an old woman.

I think they look nice on the right man. Look through magazines for the style that you like and go to your hairdresser and get it done! You'll never know whether you like it till you try it.
cheers for the replies. Decided not to this time.

they look alright when you shave your head with a 0 at the sides and back, then with the hair at the top, gel them into spider legs all around your head and put highlights in them, used to be the "in" thing round here.

PLEASE tell me you're not being serious. Even if you are, please tell me just my own well-being.

Used to be the in thing here in 6th grades...
Either way, keep away from the highlights. If you say you have dark brown hair, then try some highlights just a shade lighter. Something really subtle. That is only if you have that "emo-boy" messy hair.
Otherwise, just keep away from color.

no i'm being serious, it used to a typical chav haircut, everyone had it done, didn't look that bad in all honesty, i had my hair like that for a year or so.

Dark reddy/brown looks nice in dark brown to black hair.
Just stay away from the blonde especially if your hair is short, and you have a tendecy to gel it it will do you no favours.

Must just be me then. The idea of thin short hair strands gelled up with shits of blonde in doesn't really do it for me, but good luck with it.
