Most definatly. Black is one of those great colors that always goes with a vampire role. If you're going to go for something more flashy with a vampy character, I would do black with some kind of bright colored streaks, red's always a good choice.
Though you may want to keep in mind that over doing a role can be just as bad as underdoing it. If you're getting a good amount of work now with the hair color you have, leave it. You just need to read into what your audience is expecting ^__^. Hope this helps!

yes yes yes

and use liquid eyeliner. think: goth pinup.

If thats what you are called for go for it! It would help give you the image of the person! I think it would help you become the character! Im always called for as the rich dumb kind of girl so I wear lots of pink and got blonde hairlights and so far it helps get the image ( I have nothing against blondes : D) haha lol
