I'll give you an example of something I saw recently:
Blonde is a natural color for some.
I saw a person crossing the street who had all black hair except for one blonde patch. That was immodest.
Another example is from someone a little closer. She has multicolored hair - red's, brown's, and blonde's all mixed up. That is unnatural and immodest!
["...how it is immodest to have a blond spot (or other colors) in your hair?"]
The essence of modesty is showing others your countenance. The only part of your body that can show a countenance that reflects Christ (a spirit of humility) is your face. If you draw attention to any other part or aspect of your body (i.e., your hair), then you are immodes.
In the cases I cited, the people were immodest because their hair attracts attention away from their face. The one with black hair and a blonde spot - I saw her from a half mile away!

So, I'm assuming that means this person would be okay with nose, lip, and eyebrow piercings and heavy, gaudy makeup. It draws attention to your face, after all!
And the pretty ones are so immodest.
Facial scares are a good way to make someone want to focus their attention elsewhere. Is that immodest? What about ski masks that cover your "countenance?" Should people freeze their nose and ears off to be modest?
I have auburn hair and if you look at it up close you can see strands of red and brown (especially in the summer). That's my natural. I suppose under this logic I should go out and dye it mousy brown.
I think someone's just jealous because they can't do cool things like that to their hair. Personally, I like multi-colored hair. Black and blonde, in particular, sounds very pretty. If that's immodest, well screw modesty.
Yes, let's all shave our heads and wear monk robes. If you like everyone to look alike and have no individuality, join the service. You'll see nothing but people with the same haircut, glasses, and clothing as you.
My hair is almost-ginger - it's mostly orange, but there's some red, brown and blonde in there too. I don't dye it like that; it looks like that by itself. I suppose I'm bound for hell, then.
Yeah, I don't like them too, but least, unlike you, I'm honest about the reason why I don't like them. (I'm jealous).

uhhh...
You know, Randy, that tie distracts us from your face, not that that isn't a good thing us, but it hardly supports your point. Shouldn't you be dressed in sack cloth?
Christian Taliban award seconded.
Bro. Randy must not get out much if he was startled by the sight of someone with multi-colored hair. But no wonder: His picture suggests that he must be spending too much time with his head in the feed bag. Being that obscenely fat surely attracts attention way from his piggy face and, no doubt, he could also be seen from a half-mile away.
These kids are really stupid. As far as I am concerned, the colour of the hair is natural or unnatural depending on your jeans, and HONESTLY, we´ve been dying our hair from the beginning of time. Are they saying that just because you change a colour of a part of your body you´re sinning?, are you sinning because you´ve suffered a surgical operation or you pick up your head in locks or pigtails?, idioticity to the highest.(Besides, it is immodest to have your hair all brunette except a shade of blonde. This guys are either trolls or just masochistic)
He saw her from half a mile away and could tell she had two-tone hair? Bro. Randy must be blessed with some kind of superpower: either Telescopic Vision or Truth Stretching. My money's on the latter.
Mandrake - Teens-4-Christ and FreeConservatives share an aspect in common, they completely wall themselves off from dissenting views. They're like concentrated stupid because there's nothing intelligible allowed in.
Surprisingly, Bro Randy considers the burqa immodest too:In fact, as you mentioned, wearing a burka in our society would not be modest at all. It would cause you to stand out for your clothing not your walk with God.
Immodesty associated with colour?, and if I dye because I have grey-hair, is it immodest?, is it immodest if my hazel auburn hair shines?, if I pick up my hair in locks, buns or ponnytails?
Hmm, I've got tawny fur and a somewhat darker mane. Am I immodest? I don't wear any clothes, does that matter? After all, I am a lion. I just wear my fur.

Oh, noes!
This has no relevance to the Bible, God, Jesus, the church, or anything theological. So why the fuck is the bitching about someones hair? He's mentally ill without a doubt.
*stares in disbelief*
I know what he reminds me of! I vaguely remember seeing a Woody Allen (I think) film donkey's years ago, where some (random?) character suddenly became dictator or president or something (I'm not a Woody Allen fan and wasn't really watching, I just remember this one bit) of some small country and on being asked what his orders were came out with a handful of more and more ridiculous orders, ending with a decree that everyone had to wear their underpants outside their trousers...
This moron makes about as much sense.
It can be <i>natural</i> to have odd strands or patches of hair a different color from the rest.
Riight. Hair is sinful. My short, spiky black boff is immodest, even though its naturally untameable and if its allowed to grow longer than 4 inches it looks like a lions mane, or the aftermath of an electric shock. And those purple highlights will send me straight to hell.
FU, Randy. Just because your pubes grew on your scalp rather than your crotch it does not mean everyone else has to suffer.
If I was a woman I would be tempted to dye my hair (on my head only) every colour known to the makers of these products - and parade stark naked down Randy's street.
I wonder which part he'd notice then.
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
