Why is blond hair more common amongst the Dutch than other Westerners as a whole?

I think Carleton Coon was the closest with 15%, a recent study also registers 14.6% for light eyes (blue or green) in the Greek population. This makes the Greeks, the darkest - eyed European group.

This survey you're referring to mentions blue eyes only as light. Any green, gray or mixes between blue, green, gray are considered "mixed".

Oh really? No the one figure, I have of 14.6% is for blue or green eyes.

Combination of (dark) Blond hair + light eyes + fair skin is an important marker in the Dutch population!

There is a significant phenotype difference between Northern and Southern Dutch (separated by Rhine river). Southern Dutch carry a lot of pre-Germanic ancestry, hence they are not blonde as a rule but more like Flemings and Waloons... Northern Dutch are mostly Germanic (Scandinavian) in ancestry because prior to migration period those areas were very sparsely inhabited.

What is the most hardcore Germanic phenotype in your opinion?
