Honestly not sure, it may make you look even more pale. But it you want to do it so much try a warm shade (golden, copper, auburn, mocco etc)

And also you have to dye your brows, but you can try a toner before using a permanent dye.

I have dark brown hair and fairly pale skin and bright blue eyes like you. I constantly get told that I look exotic and unique. With dark hair your skin will look even more pale especially in fall/winter but if you want to warm up your complexion NYC sunny bronzer always does the trick!

I thinks you would look good with dark brown hair. I have dark brown hair and very pale skin. And if you dye it and don't like it its ok thats the great thing about hair you can always change it.

I have incredibly pale skin and my hair is naturally dark brown and I like how I look :) I think it would look good on you too, but of course you just need to be sure to choose the perfect shade of dark brown that will work with your coloring specifically.

I am super pale, except in summer when I fake tan, and I have had my hair black for more than five years but in that time I have also had my bangs different colors. I honestly think the contrast between light and dark is gorgeous and I think the color you are talking about would look perfect on you.

All you have to do is make sure you choose the right tone of brunette. There is cool and warm to colors. Going from such a light color to a dark color I would go in and get it professionally done, and if you mention this to your stylist when you go to her/him, I'm sure they'd know what you mean by different tones and could help you choose between cool and warm. I have very pale skin also (look at my pictures), but I dyed my hair a very dark brown in a warmer color and I think it looks great. But you may have a different tone to your skin. Check that out before you do anything! Hope this helps ya some :)

It will look amazing. I am as pale as it gets and have blue eyes with a grey tint. I've had every color there is. Blonde washes me out and makes me look sick and dull.. Darker tones like dark auburn and chestnut brown always make me feel my best. They give me some warmth and color and you NEED constrast when you're pale like we are. All pale (skin and hair) washes us out and looks boring. Do it!!

And you don't have to dye your eye brows. All you have to do (if anything) is fill them with an eyebrow pencil.

It would look great! I'm extremely pale, and I have dark brown hair. it gives you a "snow white" look. go for it.

I have pale skin and just dyed my hair dark brown almost black and it looks really good I think, it makes me look paller but I don't think that it really matters because its not that dull lifeless pale if you get me?
