black means black dark could be eg black or some shades of brown. We usually say hairs only if there are very few.

Thank you for the reply, Clive. I'm sorry my question was not clear. Once an English native friend said to me "you have DARK eyes" when I said "I have black eyes." He also said that Japanese people often say they have black eyes, but their eyes aren't black. Since then I have been wondering if native people feel strange when we say "I have black eyes". Or doesn't that matter? Don't you feel anythi
