I think that even most "nordics" don´t have blonde hair if you´re as strict as most people here seem to be about what is and is not blonde hair. For example this is the average pigmentation in Norway:
Many say only this is blonde:
By that standard, most Norwegians are not blonde, only about 15-20%. For a less romanticized view of how Norwegians looks. Look here at only the men as most women dye their hair: https://gknordic.com/no/30-for-2030-...tikk-fremover/
None of them are non-ethnic Norwegians

"The Swedish material, and especially the correlations, confirms the opinion formed in Norway, that the Nordic race as such is not and was never wholly blond."—Carleton Coon, The Races of Europe
Most data showed about 15-20% of Scandinavians had pronounced blond hair. But only 20-30% had "brown" hair.
Data on the hair and eye color of Danes is as extensive as that on stature, and covers the entire kingdom. Although no scales were used, the categories employed seem clearly defined and there can be little doubt as to the character of Danish pigmentation. Hansen found that "fair" hair decreased from 52 per cent at the age of 6 years to 33 per cent at 14, and fell to 16.6 per cent at the recruit age of 20 years. This "fair" category must, therefore, include pronounced degrees of blondism only, and exclude the light brown hues often designated as blond elsewhere. On the island of Samsø, Bardenfleth found only 7,5 per cent of hair which he was willing to call light, and 40 per cent of medium, 43 per cent of dark, and 9 per cent of black. Samsø is one of the darkest-haired regions of Denmark.

The colour of the eyes in 47.4 per cent was blue, in 19.3 per cent grey, in 28.8 per cent mixed, and in 4.5 per cent brown. The colour of the hair was in 23.3 per cent fair, in 52 per cent cendre, in 21.6 per cent brown, in 0.8 per cent black, and in 2.3 per cent red. Taking into account the blue and grey eyes, and the yellow and cendre hair there is found to be in Sweden 66.7 per cent with light eyes and 75.3 per cent with fair hair. The southern provinces and East Gothaland show a higher percentage of brown eyes than the rest of Sweden, and in the northern provinces is found a perceptibly higher percentage of eyes of mixed colours. Brown and black hair also reaches a higher number in the north. More than half of the Swedish population consists of the blonde type. (Light eyes and fair hair.)

If Norwegians aren’t blond then no one is blond! You have to know that blond hair has a spectrum as well, in the same way brown and red hair do. In Scandinavia due to the abundance of fair hair in many instances, only those with light blond hair might be seen as blond hair. However, if one compares most Scandinavians with non - Scandinavians, they are obviously blond. Light blond isn’t the only blond shades. It’d be foolish to think so. Your «*20%*» figure will only concern light blonds. Or else you could say that barely 2% of Southern Europeans are blonds.
