The blonde hair/fake tan brigade.

    Let me start off by saying I'm not judging appearances or slagging anyone before the PC police shoot me down. Is there a new cult in Ireland or something? Taking a leisurely stroll through Dublin today I have never seen so many women big, small, average etc with fake tan and blonde hair. Can anyone shed a light on this? Does fake tan and blonde hair give you superhuman sexual powers? Is there a new cult I'm not aware of?

    It's sexy, apparently.
    Didn't you get the memo?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 26,061 ✭✭✭✭Terry


    How dare you judge a woman on her looks.
    Fake tan and blonde hair makes them feel better about themselves. It's not up to you to decide what is attractive.
    Typical male chauvinist post.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 865 ✭✭✭ShadowGal


    saw this show on tv (cant remember the name) but it did a blind smell test on about 100 guys.

    their top 2 scents at the end were Lavender and fake tan

    apparently the guys associated the smell of fake tan with an easy lay


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,374 ✭✭✭Gone West


    fake tan looks absolutely ridiculous. Even when it is applied by "tan application technicians" in salons.

    I´ll just repeat it again, honestly, if you wear fake tan, you look ridiculous, you don´t look tanned, you look like a pale person with orange paint on.
    Once more, it looks ridiculous. thanks.

    Look at the beginning of the post, I am not slagging appearances. Also take a look at some of your own posts before calling me chauvinist.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 865 ✭✭✭ShadowGal


    might i add that a lot of Irish women are being constantly put down for being pasty, ive heard it so many times. cant win really




  • aww leave them alone no harm done as long as they dont go too far and look like a negative :eek:

    being both pasty and tanned at the same time though is the real tragedy

    Relax. I was joking.
    Also, I'd rather not look at my own posts. Most of them are complete and utter tripe.

  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,104 ✭✭✭easyeason3


    Some women, & I am stressing some, think that blonde hair that looks yellow & fake tan that makes them look slightly radioactive is attractive. These women are usually found to be wearing a fetching velour baby pink tracksuit with 'juicy' written across the arse of it. They also have a fondness for Ugg boots.

    Don't tar us all with the same brush.

    That's a brilliantly put argument and I thank you for explaining it intelligently and with such original material. I genuinely never heard that type of classic, witty and funny response before. You go girl.

    What type of fake tan do you use?
    Also, do you resent the fact you couldn't get into Trinity or?

    I cannot agree with this more.

    Girls, seriously, it's disgusting. No matter how well applied. It's rotten.

    Yep. Have to agree. Not everyone goes for the umpah lumpah look.
    And can I point out that some men wear fake tan too.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 20,862 ✭✭✭✭inforfun


    I could almost understand going for a fake tan. After all it is not that sunny here all year.

    But why pick orange for a tan?

    In fairness now....... people are always sayin that you don't look healthy if you're pale... and I do believe that there has been many a study done to figure out the reason blondes are considered more attractive (apparently it's something to do with being more likely to be fertile, and the fact that it gives a youthful look)

    Have to say that I notice girls getting noticed and it's the girls with blonde hair and definitely not with pale skin.... so as much as the oompa loompa look makes me want to vomit, clearly there's good reason for going that way.

    No. I strongly disagree.
    It means you're easy.

    And I think it's women with an hourglass figure that give the impression of being more fertile due to the hips & boobs.

    Yeah but theres a huge difference between a girl throwing on a bit of make-up & someone who looks like she's been drinking too much orange soda.

    Who loves orange soda?.......

    I am going to assume you are a female based on your username. Fake tan in not hot. Men don't like the jaundiced look, and it may look ok "when it's done right", but a lot of girls can't do it right. Even when done professionally girls can still come out looking like oompa loompas :eek:.

    There is an ad for a fake tan product in the window of my local pharmacy. In this ad there are two photos of the same woman, the supposedly "ugly" "pale" one and the supposedly "hot" "tanned" one. As I was walking by I saw the pale photo first and was like "wow, she's pretty, i wouldn't mind having a girlfriend like that" ;).
    Then i saw the other photo not only was i turned off, but (and i know it's not right) deep down i thought "What a slut. I bet she's a horrible vaccuos person, the type of girl who gets a kick out of telling guys who approach her to fúck off.".

    tl,dr: In 97% of irish women fake tan does more harm than good.

    Nothing worse then seeing a junkiee skanger with fan tan and blonde hair dye that they got from some crappy euro shop.... ewww:s

    They're always covered in what looks like freckles but the not healthy freckles. And they are constantly sweating!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,401 ✭✭✭Royal Irish


    I knew a girl who was short and fat. She used alot of fake tan and it just made her look like a umpa lumpa.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,134 ✭✭✭Lux23


    I am blonde and I can look pretty Barbie like at times but I never wear fake tan and I don't use a huge amount of make up. I just have never seen fake tan look good on someone and its manky the way it comes off on your clothes and bedsheets.

    man you obviously have your own insecurities with approaching women if you think a tanned woman is more likely to tell you to piss off

    yes im a woman and yes i have seen nice fake tan, never said thick as muck dark fake tan, just nice fake tan, theres a difference

    Super book me in for one on Friday.:rolleyes:

    Look I also have blond hair, naturally I might add, however when I get good fake tan done for an occassion, it looks super, I get complimented on how well I look.

    However there is the "barbie" brigade out there that think they look like "Irelands Next Top Model" but they will never cop on as long as there is guys out there to give them what they want...................... an easy lay.
