What is 'blond hair' when translated from English to Italian?

"Blonde hair" in English is capelli biondi in Italian.


What is the likelihood of having a blue-eyed baby with blond hair if the mother and father both have blue eyes with brown hair that was blond from birth-6 years old?

blue eyes very likely, blond hair, not lucky- will turn out brown as brown hair is the dominant allele in a brown-blond pair of alleles (see genetics, hair color, wikipedia). Hi, no I don't agree because I have brown hair now but I was properly blond til I was 6 years old. Both my parents had brown hair. I am English (and by that I mean properly English - not muslim) and like 90% of ethnically English people, have blond hair when young that darkens with age. This is due to the English race being Germanic and related to the Germans, Danes, Norwegians etc. In the US, there are lots of people with either English or German ancestry - so much the same story there too. I do not know about English race, ancestors and genetic traits, nor the genetic background of the darkening blond hair, however if both parents have brown hair, it means that they carry at least one dominant gene that expresses brown hair. Still, if both parent have also one recessive allele for blond hair, theoretically there is a 25% chance that their children could be blond haired, and of course with blue eyes.


Why do most dutch people have blond hair?

Native Dutch have blond hair because they have genes responsible for blond hair. Two blonds have a high change making blond haired kids. A blond an a dark haired person usually make non-blond childeren. Genes responsible for blond hair are also found in other west and nordic civilizations (Germany, Denmark, Sweden, Norway, Finland, Iceland, Scotland, Ireland, England). You might say most germanic speaking countries tend to have most blonds and light eyes.


Are people with blond hair and blue eyes related to Saxons?

People with blond hair and blue eyes could be descendants of Saxons, but not necessarily. There were many tribes in Europe that had these traits; for example, probably every Germanic tribe had these features, so we could mention the Goths, the Angles, the Saxons, the Jutes, the Vandals, the Vikings, among others. Additionally, it is very likely that some Slavic tribes and Celtic tribes had blond hair and blue eyes.

What are the chemical reasons that some people have blond hair?

Genes usually have something to do with blond hair. Since blond hair is also thinner and less colorful, blonds are usually white, because that's the least colorful race of humans. People with blond hair are usually smaller and weaker as infants, as well. The most common hair is brown (or in a female's case, brunette). Brunette girls enjoy bleaching their hair blond, because blond hair is a more uncommon color than brown hair. Blonds rarely have brown eyes, because white skin, blond hair, and green or blue eyes are all examples of light colored genetic features.
