The hair and eye color does not and cannot tell what descent you come from. Yet I'm Irish and I don't have fair skin at all. I rarely get sun burned. Studies have shown that generally speaking Irish people are genetically closer to the peoples of northern Spain. About 90% of the Irish have a fair skin, but 60% have no freckling. The slightly darker shade of skin (10%) is found in N Leinster (not in the west). The Irish really don't have many purely brown eyed people but instead hazel eyed individuals (often called brown).
"Black Irish" traditionally refers to Irish people with dark features, possibly stemming from intermixing with Spanish or North African populations. It can also refer to people of Irish descent with darker hair and eyes, distinguishing them from the typical Irish phenotype.
