I have dark brown hair (almost black) and dark brown eyes (also almost black!). I don’t really have a big preference for hair/eye color in the opposite sex…I guess I’m not too big on blue eyes on my guys though. But really, what matters to me is the expression and feeling within those eyes, not the color, so I could go for anything! I don’t really wish my eyes were a different color, but I dye my hair reddish and burgundy shades a lot so I guess it’d be nice if my hair were naturally like that to save me the time! ---

Opposite sex: I’m in love with the mediterranean thing - dark, shiny hair, dark eyes, olive skin - it’s just sexy as hell for me. Me: Well, I can’t imagine having anything other than blond hair and blue eyes. Anything else would be weird - it just wouldn’t fit at all. ---

I have medium brown hair and medium brown eyes. I’d love to have auburn hair and darker brown eyes. On the opposite sex (or, heck, on someone of either sex I’m attracted to) I prefer brown hair and dark blue or blue-green eyes. ---

I have reddish - brownish hair and blue/aqua/gray (depending on what I’m wearing) eyes. I’d keep my eye color, but I always wondered what it’d be like to have black hair. Opposite sex: I like it all. ---

For MOTOS, raven black hair and dark brown eyes. Red hair is the second choice. ---

I’ve always liked dark hair, either really dark brown or black, on guys, with blue or deep brown eyes. Other colors are not, however, a deal breaker. For me? I’d love hair that’s naturally deep auburn. I don’t want ginger-red. I like my eyes the way they are - I have lovely blue eyes that, particularly when my hair happens to be red, are an intense blue. ---

I have reddish green colour and grey outlines for eyes and I’m happy with that I guess… and I have black hair (sometimes brown in the sunlight) hair, I would like to have my moms eyes which are more stone marble greyer/hazel looking On the opposite sex hair color doesnt matter with blue green eyes. ---
