How Do I Detag A Pic If There's No Option To Do So?

My name is only in black under the photo (not blue) and there is no option to detag. I therefore can't stop this photo from appearing on my profile. (I can normally detag photos no problem). I cannot find a way to contact facebook about this problem. Any ideas?

If your name is in black, you actually have not been tagged in the photo; at least in a sense that the name does not link to your profile. That is why you cannot untag it, because you aren't actually tagged. If you still don't even want your name associated with the photo, the best thing to do would be to contact the person that the photo belongs to and have them erase it.
