Blondes Day

Blondes Day is an informal celebration of fair hair, whether natural or borrowed from a bottle. It offers a playful excuse to enjoy a look and challenge the tired idea that hair colour tells you anything about someone's intelligence or personality.

How it is celebrated: people share photos and greetings, arrange themed parties or book a photo shoot. Some beauty salons join in with special offers, though there is no fixed programme.

Natural blond hair can change considerably with age. Many fair-haired children grow up with darker hair, so an old family photo may reveal a shade its owner no longer has.
