    Default Estonian aren't lighter than scandinavian.

    I've seen estonian football team, and around 50% have brown hair. Light blond hair in particular, is notably less common than among swedish and even Danes. Estonian tend to have light mixed eyes rather than pure blue eyes, contrary to pure Germanics countries.

    Balts are a little darker than many think, but I am not sure that Estonians have darker hair than Danes, I think they are slightly lighter or the same.

    Likely the same, or some miniscule difference that would be in favour of one or another depending on the sample so for me these qualify as equal.

    Estonians as a whole are comparable in blondism to populations of Finland, Norway, Sweden, Denmark, Iceland and Faroe Islands. In fact Central Estonia has the highest recorded frequency for fair hair than any population worldwide, with the exception of the inland valleys of the Agder region in South East Norway.
    It doesn't get any lighter-haired than this Estonian crowd.

    If they are not darker than Danes or are about as light, then they are very light. Danes are not "dark", O.K.!

    These "crowd" photos you posted are 99% women.
    We know that many women even in northern Europe dye their hair blond.
    Can you post an all male crowd (i.e. 30+persons) photo from Estonia where everyone is blonde? Did not think so.

    Also about 25% of Estonia's population are ethnic Russian and it shows as some persons in these crowd photos have clearly Slavic features. I have visited both Finland and Estonia and my observations were that Finns are more light haired (but not a by a big margin) .
    More importantly my impression was that Finns look more Scandinavian/Nordic in appearance than the Slavic influenced Estonians. Perhaps this can be attributed to Swedish influence.

    What is this? Are you a chauvinist? Why don't you get Scandinavian women then, who are more blond than that? Excuses, excuses, right hey! I am referring to the ethnic Estonian or true Estonians! Not Russians, if you added Russians then they'd be darker. Estonians are a naturally very blond people comparable to Scandinavians or Finnish populations. Swedish-Finns obviously would have a more Nordid cast due to their stronger Scandinavian, while most Finns are East Baltids as Estonians, Latvians and many Lithuanians are. The East Baltid is a predominantly blond race by the way.

    And blonde hair is more common among girls.

    Estonian is a predominantly blond-haired country! Obviously blond hair darkens from cradle to adulthood. They are predominantly very fair, in the same sense as Scandinavians!
