"Black is almost related to the hidden, secretive and the unknown and as a result it creates an air of mystery. In psychology this color gives protection from external emotional stress. Which means, it creates a barrier between itself and the outside world, providing comfort while protecting its emotions, feelings, hiding insecurities and lack of self-confidence.
Black is the absorption of all color and the absence of light. Black hides and covers.
Black can also mean power and control. Is intimidating, unfriendly and unapproachable because of the power it exudes. Black implies self-control and discipline, independence and a strong will, and giving an impression of authority and power. Black absorbs negative energy. It is useful to carry something black with you to protect you from harm and negativity when traveling or when going about your usual daily activities outside your home. People who like black may be conventional, conservative and serious, or they may think of themselves as being sophisticated or very dignified. The color black is often seen as a color of sophistication, as in 'the little black dress', or 'the black tie event'.
Black is often associated with sexiness and seduction. It can also imply submission to another (including a sexual partner).
Teenagers often have a psychological need to wear black during the stage of transition from the innocence of childhood to the sophistication of adulthood. It signifies the ending of one part of their life and the beginning of another, allowing them to hide from the world while they discover their own unique identity.”
