As a man, I haven't known all that many guys who initially look for "brains and sophistication" in a woman. Maybe I just know too many losers. Sorry, I mean loosers.

Beautiful women come in all hair colors.

I do prefer light brown to blond hair. Can't stand bleached blondes.

Some fellas look at the eyes
Some fellas look at the nose
Some fellas look at the size
Some fellas look at the clothes
I don't care if her eyes are red
I don't care if her nose is long
I don't care if she's underfed
I don't care if her clothes are worn
First I look at the purse!
Some fellas like the smiles they wear
Some fellas like the legs that's all
Some fellas like the style of their hair
Want their waist to be small.
I don't care if their legs are thin
I don't care if their teeth are big
I don't care if their hair's a wig
Why waste time lookin' at the waistline?
First I look at the purse!
A woman can be fine as can be,
kisses sweet as honey
But that don't mean a thing to me
If you ain't got no money
If the purse is fat....that's where it's at.
Some fellas like the way they walk
The way they swing and sway
Some fellas like the way they talk
Dig the things they say.
I don't care if they wobble like a...
or talk with a lisp
I still think I'm a good lover
if the dollar bills are crisp
First I look at the purse!
First I look at the purse!
First I look at the purse!
First I look at the purse!
I don't care if you got yourself a wrap
all I want is your pretty green cash
Bought me a suit, bought me a car
Want me to look like a hollywood star
Money, (Money!) I want money (Money!)
Baby, ain't no "why", baby (Money!)
I need money!
First I look at the purse!
First I look at the purse!
First I look at the purse!
First I look at the purse!

Sounds like they took a poll of 1,500 male hair dressers.

You got it. This is typical of academic researchers. The good professor is missing a critical step in his conclusions. His finding is that men find brunettes to be more "independent and sophisticated." But that does NOT mean that men WANT brunettes over blonds.

Hellooo. Having been a guy most of my life, and knowing a few other guys, I can vouch for the fact that most of them (not me, of course) prefer AVAILABILITY in a woman, rather than SOPHISTICATION. Helloooo. Methinks the professor has been in the lab sniffing the chemicals for too long.

Blondes, brunettes or redheads?

I'll take a black and tan.

I'm still partial to blondes but I think the answer to why brunettes fare well in this survey is because the white population is declining compared to asian, black and Hispanic populations (all naturally dark-haired). This means more dark-skinned dark-haired men who may not see blondes as naturally attractive.

When I start seeing brunettes with blonde roots, I'll start believing brunettes are actually more popular. Doesn't seem women themselves supporting this notion.

They can change their hair color at will as far
as I am concerned,
Just so they ARE a girl and have ALWAYS been a girl
is all that matters to me.

With women being able have there hair any color it's not the hair color it who wears the hair color... today a lot of women that want to look "women magazine" hot...they do way to much, to thin, to plastic, to processed, to much my shi- don't stink tude ... what the average men find instinctively attractive about a women is very different then what women set for other women as there goal look...just look at the difference in the women you see in women vs men magazine

hmm do the distinguish NATURAL blonds?

As long at there is peroxid there will be blonds.

For me the real test was long hair vs short hair. A woman with longer hair is generally more feminine.

There are a lot of cliches about hair color and character that really don't pan out. What's for real is that the hair color industry convinced women that "Anyone can be a blonde." Maybe, but it takes a lot of effort to maintain a dye job. Most of them are obvious fakes. When you learn that, and see how the ends don't match the roots or eyebrows, it's not so attractive. Another dubious statement is that women go blonde to please themselves. There could be something in that, but men's automatic attraction to blondes had a lot to do with forming women's tastes. When men's attraction to fake blondes wanes, so does women's desire for that color.

Now they think brains are hair, and they can create them with dye. And they wonder why we think they are stupid.

Sociologist Leah Smith is sure that a blond bombshell with no credentials will get a job before a flat-chested Plain Jane with lots of skill and experience, so she morphs into "Candi-with-an-I" Devereaux.
