I'd always imagined the light would be too harsh to look "natural".
Not always, done wrong the results using flash can be hideous, it can make background illumination balance difficult and it's very easy to burn out reflective surface and to create highlights/reflections where they don't appear natural. I rarely use flash, I prefer reflectors but its not always practical.
