    Default No longer blonde though my username says I am, does it matter?

    I took a 2 month break from camming and wasn't really expecting to be coming back to be honest so I changed my hair colour to a bright red. Unfortunately, my cam name references me being blonde and I can't change it. And since I came back I've noticed a severe drop in traffic and paying customers, even lowering my premium rates back to 3.99 hasn't helped make up for it.

    Now I know that taking time off will lose me a lot of fans and it's gonna take time to rebuild my business. But am I making things worse by not advertising my actual hair colour? I've had quite a lot of positive comments about it, including some from former regs, but it could be that the majority of guys react negatively and are just leaving my chat. Anyone got experience with this kinda situation?

    Changing a hair color is a big deal so you lose fans. Especially when you go from blonde to any other color because there are so many blonde fetishists out there. Personally, I'd make all new usernames because redhead lovers or brunette lovers are not going to want to click "BLONDE______"'s profile, and blonde lovers are going to go there and leave because they expected you to be blonde. Probably about half won't care, but the other half does because hair is such a defining part of one's physical self.

    Thats like if someone with an A cup made a profile called Sarah36DD. It is just kind of awkward and repels men who like small breasts at first glance, and then repels men who like large breasts at second glance when they get in your room. People like congruence. Remember, we want them to use their OTHER heads, and not the one with the brain.

    Is it that you can't change your cam name or you don't want to? Most sites will change your name for you if you email them. If you are talking about SM and have noticed a major drop in traffic - it's probably nothing to do with your hair colour! SM is bleugh compared to what it was.

    Turns out SM is super fast at changing account names - I'd heard they wouldn't let you do it at all! Now I just need to sort out a new bio pic and wait for that to clear!

    same problem here too...they asked at first but after a few months they just said " u look way hotter brunette " so,don't worry about your hair color Some of them might even say it's false advertise but I don't really care :-D oh and ps: I used to wear a blonde wig but it destroyed my hair last summer (I was all sweaty)

    Wow, they let you change your name? That's nice. I recently changed my name, and they made me open a brand new account, with all new paperwork. Once that was approved, they deleted my original account.

    I change it up all the time. Guys get bored with the same meat everyday esp when we do this all the time. IMO

    Ever considered just buying a wig for when you're on cam?

    I was also told the same thing as I wanted to use my porn name

    I actually found the same when i changed my hair to pillarbox red (a colour I ADORE!) from brunette. The one and only thing I've really noticed make a big difference in my income (apart from not actually getting on cam at all of course).

    On the other hand if you can't change the name then there's no point stressing about it is there? Just let your hair go back to blonde and say no more about it x
