Is a white lie a sin?

Asked by dxs (15160points) April 20th, 2011

If someone asks how their new hairdo looks, and you think it’s hideous and an abomination, is it a sin to lie and say that it’s gorgeous? It must be a sin to insult them…It’s almost like a dead end. I was just wondering and opinions are okay, is/would you consider a white lie a sin? I’m talking from Catholicism, if that has any factor in this
