You have one risk allele on Val60Leu. This variant is strongly correlated with blond hair on Northern European populations. What is your hair color?

[Congolese Rice]

Hair Color
Looks like you’ve got the genes for darker hair.

Whether your hair color is chocolate brown or platinum blonde, it all starts with melanin: the same pigment that colors our skin and eyes. Your hair has two types of melanin: eumelanin, which comes in black and brown, and pheomelanin, which is a spectrum of pinkish-red to orange and yellow.

In people with dark hair, eumelanin is high and pheomelanin low; those with blonde hair have low amounts of both pigments. As we age, hair follicles produce less melanin, resulting in gray and ultimately white hair.

I'm not sure but it depends.. A:A could mean you have genes for it .. while GG means the least but sometimes it's like this:

AA is the highest you get and then AG and then GG... sometimes it's GG highest and GT middle and TT lowest. Not sure , long time I did these but I'm logging on promothease now waiting for my report, it's same reports as 23andme where you can upload your raw data. it used to be for free but I think it's now 5 bucks or something. It's also buggy , some reports don't show while when you upload data from another company they show etc.

If you could tell what other options come up like GT , etc . It should say on the report then I could tell you.

I think I got a mix of brown and blue eye alleles on one of my SNPs for eye colour, which means that if I have children with a blue eyed person then my children would more likely be blue eyed but if I have children with a dark eyed person then they would probably all be dark eyed.

To me it looks like you also got in between despite you're really blonde . For example we got the same on rs1805005

For example my brother and father and some cousins are all dark, my mother is paler same for me. But according to my genetics I'm lighter than what I actually look or what you'd think if you saw some siblings , cousins etc xD

This is probably because majority of other relatives are medium pigmented and not dark. So I guess phenotype /= genotype

According to Coon , black hair peaked in Ghegs only in their 40s and was most common then, before that it was supposedly a minority. I guess dark brown can turn into black. Not sure. Or maybe it's as you say.

If we go by your hair colour breakdown and similar participants, I think I would maybe get darker results , something similar to Seya, a little lighter maybe. Most of my relatives are dark haired but with light brown /blonde minorities. Light eyes are common, so are brown. Majority are pale skinned.

Yeah. I guess back in Coon's time that type of hair in the picture was ranked as black, nowadays it seems dark brown can be really dark, almost black-like, like this.

He will have some light shade of brown hair. Nothing is certain, but the chances are extremely high considering this is the strongest blond hair mutation out there and you both have one risk allele. Changing T to C in transgenic mouses always resulted in lighter coat color compared to control mouses, both in heterozygous and homozygous animals.

that is not a very clear picture, is your hair lighter than mine?

[TeutonicBoyars]

I have not seen what your hair looks like, sorry.

Would it be clearer for you if I resized the image?

yes, resize it then post it again

yes, resize it then post it again

Tried to resize it a bit without compromising the pixel quality.

I'm curious to see if you have a similar colour given that we have similar SNP results.

Blond Hair and Blue Eyes

People with your genotype are four times more likely to have blond hair and blue eyes
Genotype: TT
Gene: HERC2

Blond Hair, Lighter Hair

Genotype: GT
Gene: LOC105370627

23andMe
At 13 of the genetic markers we looked at you have variants that make you likely to have lighter hair, and at 17 you have variants that make you likely to have darker hair. At 12 of the markers we looked at, you have variants with no effect either way (not shown).

Ok Raw Data

Ok about the original post.

It wouldn't have been wrong to post the Raw Data 23andMe link, believe that at this time and in these surprise threads one can react so fast or find out what the heck all this is about.

YourDNAPortal says I'm likely to hold recessive genes for both blond hair and blue eyes. I'm medium-dark brown haired and have medium brown eyes.

People with your genotype are unlikely to have blond hair and blue eyes, although you carry one variant and are more likely to have blue eyes.

Although it is unlikely you have blond hair you are more likely to have blue eyes, you carry one copy for these traits. Red and fair hair is found mainly in the North West and North East of Europe above the 35th parallel.

People with your genotype are more likely to have blond hair. You carry two variants for this genotype.

People with blond hair have low levels of the dark pigment eumelanin. Ranging from platinum, strawberry and sandy blond. Red and fair hair is found mainly in the North West and North East of Europe above the 35th parallel.

People with your genotype do not have this variant associated with red hair. SNPs in MC1R are responsible for red, light and blond hair. Fair skin and freckling.

Brown eye colour is more likely in people with your genotype, although you carry one variant for blue eyes

People with your genotype are more likely to have medium toned eyes, although you carry one recessive variant for lighter eyes

Medium eye colour tone is more likely.

People with your genotype are very likely to have freckles.

I have no freckles. My cousin does, though.

Could you please check your genotype for rs11547464? It is a rare red hair carrier MC1R variant (similar in penetrance to the much more Northern concentrated variant rs1805008 based on UK Biobank) that oddly peaks in the Mediterranean perhaps even West Asia rather than Northern Europe. I used to think it peaked in Southern Europe (besides Ashkenazi Jews) but the Middle-East aggregate of gnomAD v4.0 indicates a 0.013 allele frequency which is at least as high as predominantly European Latinos in v4.0 or Southern European Non-Finnish Europeans in gnomAD v2.1.1. It occurs at lower frequencies in Northwestern Europeans than with Southern Europeans and is negligible in Finns so I suspect its distribution is associated with EEF settlement.

It isn't in my raw, but is on the chromo browser now (I couldn't find it before, they do mess around with these things sometimes though, I've had it happen to me)— AG. This could be it... but my Dad doesn't have it genotyped. Thanks 23andMe. Maybe he'll have a random gift of it like I did, I think it is pretty likely he's got it and passed it down to me, but my mom has surprised me in absentia of a DNA test a few times already lol

what does getting A/G mean with this SNP?

[Melkiirs]

what does getting A/G mean with this SNP?

You are also a carrier! It might come from your Iberian or Italian ancestry because it more frequent in Southern rather than Northern Europeans unlike the other red hair carrier variants. It is similar or even slightly higher in penetrance to rs1805008 (82.43 vs 75.19 OR with red vs dark hair for UK Biobank according to this study: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC6548228/) which user Grace is a carrier of. She also has a reddish element to her hair (you are about Fischer #10 or Fischer-Saller III) so it is not surprising that you do too.

Oh cool interesting then it might be from my paternal side i guess one of the brothers of my grandpa is red haired and well after my grandpa DNA results he came back as mostly iberian and then some other things while my maternal grandma is also red haired but that comes from her paternal grandpa who was Polish and red haired. i should check my dad raw data first :D

I strongly suspect that the distribution of that variant is associated with that of EEF admixture. Poles still have a large amount of EEF admixture (~43%) but significantly less than Iberians (~60%). Among Finns the presence of the variant is negligible (allele frequency of only 0.001112 for gnomAD v4.0) but that could be impacted by their population bottleneck in addition to being at the low end of EEF admixture for Europeans. For the Estonian aggregate with gnomAD v2.1.1 the allele frequency is 0.004151 similar to Swedes and not so far below Northwestern Europeans, so the Finnish bottleneck is likely quite relevant for the significant difference.

Arg142His is a rarer variant so even if the allele frequency among Southern Europeans is around twice that of most Northern Europeans the absolute difference in frequency is not that much.

You definitely are a carrier of the major blondism variant rs12821256, but G is the reference allele for rs11547464 so not a carrier:
