currenlty im making an ear, but when i want to make the surfaces of it smooth, a lot of it goes really dark. and it got even worse when i was trying to attach it to the head. why is this? and how can i fix it?

heres an image of what it looks like. i tried deleting one of the surfaces to the left (the surface which stands out on the left ear) and then creating a new surface using the exact same vertices and color and everything, and thats the result.

any help would be really apreciated =/
