Chapters: 0:00 Blond Hair 2:52 Origins of Blond Hair 5:11 Reasons for Blond Hair What is the origin of blond hair and why did it develop in the first place? Now only around 2 percent of the worlds population has naturally blond hair, and it is most common in northern Europe or people who have ancestry connected to Europe, but blond hair is also found across the world, from North Africa to Asia, and even among the native populations in places such as Fiji and the Solomon Islands. But why is this? Why does around 10% of the native population of the Solomon Islands have naturally blond hair? Well more on that latter. In general, human hair colour is caused by varying amounts of two types of melanin: known eumelanin and pheomelanin.
