Black hair referred as brown hair? WHAT? HELP!?

My mom thinks that black hair can be referred to brunette hair. And I was like "No mom, brown hair is called brunette hair." And she was like "No, when a person with black hair walks down the street you would say that girl has brunette hair." I said "No you would say she has black hair. It's it's seperate catagory." She said "No, there are only Brunettes, redheads and blondes." I said "No! Brunette, black, redhead, and blonde!"



Who's right?

your mom of course.



: a person having brown or black hair and often a relatively dark complexion -- spelled brunet when used of a boy or man and usually brunette when used of a girl or woman



Black hair referred as brown hair? WHAT? HELP!?

Brunette refers to dark hair, be it brown or black... so Mom's correct on this one.



Sweetie, brown IS brown and black IS black, but the term "brunette" refers to EITHER black OR brown. It's ALWAYS been that way. Say black, if you mean black and brown if you mean brown... but brunette if you mean either black or brown.



"Brunette simply means "dark."



Black hair referred as brown hair? WHAT? HELP!?

You're right. There is black hair, red hair, brunette, and blonde. Those are the main categories but people don't really advertise black hair as much for example on buddy icons there not going to say, I like to party because I'm a black hair and those icons that have the color and the name could be a misinterpratation.

I have to say that your mom is right.



There is no such thing as a person having black hair,



even though it may appear to be.



it would just be really dark brown.



Black hair referred as brown hair? WHAT? HELP!?

Your mom. Technically no-one has naturally jet black hair. It is actually very very dark brown that looks black. Unless of course you die it jet black. But natural hair color is only Browns, Reds and Blondes.

Black hair referred as brown hair? WHAT? HELP!?

Mom rules: I've always believed/understood that those with black hair were also called brunettes, as in dark-haired, though it does seem like they should have their own category/term.



Black hair referred as brown hair? WHAT? HELP!?

Brunette in common usage refers to dark brown or black hair.



Even if i didn't know this already, i would have said you were wrong simply because you sound like an ignorant little girl. and the fact that you have to ask a question like this on yahoo answers makes you lose all creditability towards your intelligence.



Black hair referred as brown hair? WHAT? HELP!?

i would have to agree with you,



black is black, and it will always be like that. so nomater how hared your mom trys- the black will stay black and brunette will stay brunette



Black hair referred as brown hair? WHAT? HELP!?

Sorry, your mom is technically correct... see dictionary definition at link below.



"a person having brown or black hair and often a relatively dark complexion -- spelled brunet when used of a boy or man and usually brunette when used of a girl or woman"



Black hair referred as brown hair? WHAT? HELP!?

I have heard it said that there is no such thing as truly "black" hair, just extremely dark brown hair. If you were to bleach someone's hair that looked black, it would turn out orange, showing a great deal of red coloring in the original hair, like brown, so it can't actually be black, can it? There is an actual pigment to the hair, just like skin.......there are people with dark skin, but no one is truly "black-black". I think you'll find that very few things in life are truly "black", simply a very dark blue, brown, or green. Check out art sometime......they almost never use true black, even for shadows.



Black hair referred as brown hair? WHAT? HELP!?

I agreed with you until...

I would say you are right, the make up of black hair is very different from Caucasian hair whether it's brunette, red or blonde.
