Less than 10% if she really has blond hair color but it looks like she dyed it.

blondism is rare in Turkey but there are many people with blue/green eyes but with brown hair, not blond.

Onur is the Turk here, so he knows his stuff. Blondism definitely isn't a common thing in Turkey. But light eyes and brown hair are common.

[Arbërori]

Looks Greek, definitely admixed & atypical.

[Hayalet]

She reminds me of Jennifer Connelly, safe to say she is atypical.

Why does it matter anyway? Anthropologically speaking she's not Turkish at all.

[Hurrem sultana]

[Mortimer]

Not a etnic turk or anatolian look.

I disagree, Turks like the other mediterraneans (Italians, spaniards, greeks etc) have a great(er) spectrum of phenotype variability unlike N.euros that are mostly light.

Turks are not Mediterranid, Turks are West Turanid/Anatolid which doesn't look like that at all.

Her hair colour isn't natural, that's for sure

Mostly this. I would say there is quite a few dark blondes, especially in the Izmir area. I don't think I've ever seen a pale blonde haired adult Turk before (not counting children).

To the people who are saying she doesn't look Turkish, we are quite mixed and can look very different especially in each and every region.

I have seen a very blonde young girl (around 12 - 14). When you have blonde hair at that age its not going to get much darker.
I also know a blonde (kind of ash blonde) turkish guy.

Would place in Italy.

yes but as atypical italian

You meant Ethiopian.

[Ades]

looks like she dyed the hair

I agree.

[Onur]

Yes and any Turkish girl with green/hazel/blue eyes can look like her if she dyes her hair.

So she doesn't automatically becomes "non-Turkish" just because she dyed her hair.

Doesn't look Italian at all.

She looks Italian/Greek to my eyes, why? Her hair is obviously dyed.

[Hoca]

This look is not even common in the balkans. I think she looks northern-European. Not common in the Balkan, nor Anatolia.

No, she looks Southern alright (her hair is dyed). She seems to be Pontid with some Alpine difference. Maybe a whiff of Norid, but that's not based off her hair color.

The majority of women in Turkey are usually either Pontid+Turanid or Asian Alpinids, I believe.
