Is it cool to paint the entire fuselage of a plane in black?

If you take a look at Chrono aviation from Canada you can see an example of real world airlines that have choosen an all black livery.

Black is not a typical livery for aircraft because it absorbs heat, which in makes it harder to keep cool inside in warmer climates. Painting the wings black also means it can't carry as much fuel as the heat causes it to expand.

Practicality aside, an all-black livery, or any livery that involves a vast majority of the fuselage covered in a single solid colour would need something else to supplement it. Air New Zealand's 'all'-black 77W for example, the leaf is white.I'm trying to create a livery for my airline, and I'm thinking of using the black color to paint all the planes.
Is it interesting, or is the black color expensive to paint all the planes?
I have my own examples as well, which might be the closest to what you'd want to make. 2 of these are special liveries as you could tell, one of them is the main livery. I'm not kidding, that red one is indeed a main livery.
(Sometimes "spending a lot on marketing & advertisement" this way pays off really well)

This. Honestly, aside from maybe an eccentric livery, an all-black fuselage doesn't really work very well in most cases.
