What is the most common hair color worldwide?

Just from observation plus genetics, it must be black, as it is also a dominant gene and the sole hair colour of two races at least. In fact, because blonde hair is recessive it's predicted to gradually die out altogether in the near future. Jan 06 06, 7:37 PM

The common "factoid" regarding hair colour says it is black. I thought I'd try to find something more substancial to back that up: The most common hair color in the world is black by a 2:1 ratio. http://www.gullible.info/archive.php?m=2004-11 In human examples, the simplest example for hair color involves several alleles; but the most common hair color in humans world-wide, black, is produced by the double-recessive. Common does not necessarily mean dominant! http://plantphys.info/principles/seedshape.html Here is an interesting article on "The Genetics of Hair Color": http://everything2.com/index.pl?node_id=776421 Jan 07 06, 8:09 AM
