I Changed Disney Princesses’ Hair And Eye Colors

Within my experience Brunette was commonly use to refer to dark brown (or lighter brown colours) and black hair and eyes were considered .... well black and not brunette. Upon reading this thread and doing some research myself (since wiki is not always the most reliable source) have also found the same result as Lila, brunette an adjective meaning 1. (of hair, eyes, skin, etc.) of a dark color or tone. 2. (of a person) having dark hair and, often, dark eyes and darkish or olive skin. Black is definitely considered dark, so brunette is the appropriate word to use although she has black hair. Learn something new everyday, eh?

"Brunette literally means "little brown-haired girl" or "young brown-haired woman", but, in modern English usage, it has lost the diminutive meaning and usually refers to any brown or black-haired girl or woman, or the associated hair color." Straight from wiki. There, it's a tie.
