How old are you?

If you are over 35 and coloring it to look younger, sorry but it's not going to work.

Jet black is for dark skinned people and those under 25 or look like they are under 25. I would use a temporary black until you see if you like it. Its hard to remove without damage to the hair if you use permanent. Men look best in natural colors I think unless they have a high maintenance look all over. (like rockstar look w/jetback...hate that term but you know what I mean)

Not weird unless you have light skin, then it might look a little emo. Which is a little weird, IMO.

It's not weird in general for a guy to dye his hair, but yeah, if you're doing it to look younger, it rarely works that way.

We've all seen older people with hair that's not the right color for their skin tone, even if it's a color they had while younger, and it looks wrong and makes them look even older.

It depends on how old you are and if you do it right... otherwise, people might make fun of you.

If it looks natural, it should be fine. But I agree with the previous post about trying a temporary color first.

If you're making a statement, then make a statement and go all the way with the rest of your style so it doesn't look like an accident.
