is there always a connection with skin pigment colour and hair colour?

Question

I know that most people who have very dark skin usually have naturally dark hair, because of their pigments. But are there any very very dark skined people (e.g people who may partly have an african background) who have naturally light hair (e.g blond)?

also is there a connection between a person's hair colour and their nipple colour (male or female).

I know that there aren't that many black people who are naturally blonde...but are there ANY?

Answer 1

Both hair and skin color are determined by the same chemical (melanin). This is more apparent in hair than skin making it extremely unlikely to find someone with naturally lighter hair than skin. They would have to have some sort of genetic disorder for this to be possible.

Answer 2

Mostly there is a connection or relation between the the skin colour and hair colour and that depend on the genetics and the the parents and the ethnic group..
let's take the Chinese as an example, have you ever seen a natural blond? or with green,, or blue eyes?
but there are some variations in these adjectives
you can see the (Australian Aborigines) they are good example for what I mean..and what you are looking for..
I hope that I fulfil the answer... hope the best for you

Answer 3

skin colour is dtermined by genetics, as is hair color. however hair color tends to change in many fair haired individuals to a darker shade as a result of diet as well. hair, like the nails is made of waste products within the body. thus, being a waste product, diet can cause blonde hair to turn brown and even darker brown as people age, and before it begins to turn white as age tends to cause it to do. most most redf haired people don't have any change except to get a bit darker shade of red as they age.
skin color changes due to the reaction within the skin cells to the ultraviolet rays reacting with the melanin in the skin to turn it darker (that is called tanning).
all racesa have the same reaction to sunlight. the skin darkens as it is exposed, and lightens when it doesn't get sunlight.
the only people who some think don't react this way to sunlight are the negroes who have a very high melanin content. this is not true. if a ***** was kept out of the sun for several months would get a sunburn just as easily as a fairskinned individual would. it just would not show redness., but it would be just as likely to cause severe pain as in a fair skinned person. the lack of sunlight causes the melanin in the skin to remain neutral, but when exposed, it reacts just the same in all races.
the amount of melanin within the body is genetically set as a result of evolutionary changes over thousands of years. some areas where man was received longer, and higher amounts of sunlight than others. melanin is a chemical which acts a a natural barrier to the harmful rays of the sun. thus some groups of people required greater protection due to the amount of sunlight exposure over time than others.

Answer 4

Hair color is the result of pigmentation due to the presence of the chemicals of melanin and phaeomelanin.

Human beings have many variations in hair color and hair texture. In general, the more melanin, the darker the hair color; the more phaeomelanin, the lighter it is. Usually the color of children's and adults' hair varies from pale yellow (blonde) to deep black. Hair may also come in more than one shade of color on one's head. As an example, the shade of one's hair color may change from a light shade to a darker one as time elapses.

The ethnic distribution of colors has historically varied by geographic area. For example, black hair prevails in the Middle East, North Africa, and Southern Europe. Dark shades also occur in East Asia, South Asia, Sub-saharan Africa and The Americas. Brown, blonde, red and black hair occurs mostly in white Europeans and their descendents.

Considerable differences in hair color and texture exist between individuals of similar ethnicity, and immigration and global travel have greatly increased the diversity of hair characteristics in many countries.

Answer 5

I think it's pretty obvious. They aren't that many black people who are blondes...and alot of Irish people (light skin) have ginger or red hair.
