Survey: brunettes are better, take that blonds, redheads
Finally, confirmation of what women with dark hair have always suspected.
Blonds might have more fun, but brunettes - at least the ones in England - are better.
Penelope Cruz (AP) A Garnier Nutrisse ‘Shade Of The Nation’ report conducted in Britain showed that brunettes, when compared to blonds and redheads, are smarter, sexier and more successful.
Seventy-six percent of the 6,000 people who participated in the survey thought that brunettes were smarter. Seventy-one percent of men picked a brunette as a girlfriend or wife.
One in 10 men felt more confident with a brunette on his arm.
Brunette women were twice as likely to earn a salary of 45,000 pounds to 55,000 pounds.
According to the survey, brunettes are viewed as much more genuine, intelligent, even-tempered self-sufficient, self confident and ambitious than their blond and red haired counterparts.
Blonds were more fun loving than redheads and brunettes.
Redheads were seen as more spontaneous and fiery.
What do you think of the survey? Do you think the results would be the same in this country?
Does hair color have anything to do with sexiness, success or potential?

Well of course she would agree with it if she’s brunette. I’m brunette too and I don’t use a survey to feel better about myself :P
