Is it true that there is no such thing as ';true natural black hair';?

I heard somebody said that the darkest of natural black hair is a very dark shade of brown. Nobody has ';true natural black'; hair. Just a very dark shade of brown. Is this true or is completely false?Is it true that there is no such thing as ';true natural black hair';?
No, there is no truly black hair.





Look at it this way...





If someone had true black hair then they wouldn't be able to lighten it with bleach no matter how hard they tried. Every layer they pulled off with bleach would just have a black layer underneath it.





However, I've seen plenty of blacks, Asians, Indians, Arabics, Hispanics, Italians and Greeks dye their hair a light brown and even blond. That wouldn't be possible if their hair was true black down to the root.





My hair is two shades away from black. It's considered a Level 3 or 4 and called Darkest Brown (or Brown-Black). Black hair is simply considered the darkest of all browns. Even if it has a blue shine to it, it still can be lightened to blond. Hence, it's not true black.





Think of it like a black hole that absorbs all light and releases nothing.





Another good example is a bacarra rose (black rose). It's not truly black, it's so dark red it looks black. But there's no such thing as a black rose.





The only way to have truly black hair is to remove all other color from it (including the blue or purple shine). That's what black is. An absence of color.

Most people that appear to have black hair just have really intense dark brown hair when it's looked under a microscope.


However, if you truly have black hair, it appears blue or purple under a microscope.


But very few people have naturally actual black hair, unless you're like Asian, etc.
