She is with the long blake hair.
She is with the blake long hair.
Which is the one?
Thanks in advance. |
I guess you mean "She is the one with the long black hair". (And that would be the usual word order.)
You can also say "She has long black hair."
Here is a link that provides some guidelines for the order of adjectives:
