    Default Which country in Europe has the highest frequency for strawberry blondes?

    Is it England or Scotland or Ireland or Iceland?
    Due to the fact in all these nations, red hair is fairly common.

    Norway has its share as well. I would imagine it to be in the British Isles, maybe leaning England, Scotland.

    Scotland, i would say strawberry blonde is really characteristic of there as it is where redheads and blondes have mingled more often, Irish redheads tend to have more true red hair i think, i think strawberry Blonde hair is also common in the Dutch?

    I'd say wherever there are redheads there will be strawberry blonds as well as it is part of the redhaired sphere. I don't think Irish redheads are different than Scot's redheads for example.

    These pictures are from Ireland.

    Tempted so say Scotland - actor Kevin McKidd types, but as Ireland has slightly more red heads overall and strawberry is the lighter end of the range overall, then Ireland

    I counted around 3-4% of English sportsmen being Strawberry Blondish. Haven't counted Scotland yet but I assume it would be slightly higher, at least a higher proportion of their 'blonds'.

    3% - 4%? Wow. Oh well in fact that strawberry blond is the rarest blond shade.

    Would not be surprised if Strawberry Blonde is highest in England, but have no idea.
