So the ones who remain blond are the ones who don't have kids - the intelligent ones, in other words.
The above has my full backing and I haven't been blond since I was tiny. |

Sorry to ruin your theory Jrcambs.....I'm blonde, I was a very pink blonde (you know a real strawberry blonde, not light red!) until I was about 11 or 12, then my hair went a sort of mid blonde colour....now though it's just mid to light blonde (natural mind, not attacked with chemicals or anything!) but it has gotten lighter due to repeated alopecia over the past 12 years or so,in fact there are many different shades and colours in my hair because each time I get alopecia it always grows back a different shade/colour and texture, either thinner, thicker, wavy curly etc.....it's not patchy alopecia though what I get, it's the kind that gives thinning of the hair all over almost, so the changes all mix up with my usual hair and so it's not noticable....so much for the pregnancies theory.....mind you I did hear that the less eggs a female has in her ovaries the darker her hair goes.....maybe I'm the exception? But in both my parents families there's a natural blonde adult also so maybe I just have the blonde gene from each of them. Mad to think though that both my sons are dark, the oldest is dark blonde while the youngest boy is brown & my sister who has light brown hair, has 3 boys all of who are very blonde even though they are 18, 15 & 14 years old???????????
In my experience it's the ones who fake having blonde hair that are the dumb ones......it just so happens to give us natural blonde's the raw end of the deal.
