Married at First Sight star Dave Flaherty insists he never wanted his wife, Amber Martorana, to stop dying her hair blonde although he once appeared to suggest the change.

"I'm starting to lose my hair... I think I might be dying it too much," Amber said in a recent episode.
"Maybe women everywhere are going to hate me for saying this, but if it's truly making her hair fall out, just stop doing it. It just doesn't seem complicated to me," Dave told the cameras, before asking Amber to stop.
Amber then nipped their conversation in the bud because she felt Dave was trying to talk her into having darker hair.
During an appearance on Tuesday night's Married at First Sight: Unfiltered with his co-star Bobby Dodd, a fan wrote Dave the following question: "Do you actually want Amber to dye her hair brown and is this your way of telling her?"
"Absolutely not," Dave replied on the Unfiltered special, which is hosted by Season 1 Married at First Sight star Jamie Otis.

"It had nothing to do with that. I don't care. I really don't. What I said, and what I really feel is, like, 'Hey, if this is making your hair fall out, let's at least think about other options.'"
Bobby had Dave's back, saying he probably would have responded the same way had his wife Danielle Bergman approached him with this topic.
"Amber opened the conversation with, 'My hair is falling out,'" Bobby recalled.
"Thank you!" Dave chimed in.

"Red flag, right there," Bobby noted. "Well, why is your hair falling out, Amber? 'I think it's because I'm dying it.'"
"I love you, Bobby," Dave said with a smile, before telling Jamie, "She already had it in her mind that I didn't like how she's a blonde, which honestly isn't true. It's a little unfair."

Dave elaborated, "I mean, obviously I had plenty of issues through this as well, but I think that was a little unfair. I'm just saying, 'Hey, I want you to be healthy,' and she's hearing, 'I want you to change your hair color.' That wasn't what it was."
Dave admitted he didn't catch on to the fact Amber had an insecurity about her hair color at the time.
"You know what's tough? I don't think in the moment I did. I didn't get what was going on. I didn't get why it was an issue. So what I should have done was -- rather than being sympathetic, I got frustrated," Dave reasoned.
Jamie then jokingly asked the guys whether they'd "rock a man bun" if that look happened to be their wives' type.
"No, I wouldn't rock a man bun," Bobby said with a laugh. "I really like Danielle, but I'm pretty sure she can do without a man bun."

"I couldn't pull a man bun off," Dave insisted. "I think Bobby could though."
Bobby then confessed he definitely goes for a woman with "dark hair over blonde hair," adding, "I'm more of a brunette guy."
In addition to Dave and Amber as well as Bobby and Danielle, Married at First Sight's seventh season on Lifetime also stars Mia Bally and Tristan Thompson.
