Apparently, the last truly natural blonde might be born in Finland in roughly 2202.
Update: Thanks to Mrs H. for pointing out that this little fact mentioned in the article is a hoax (and I did put “blondes” into Snopes’ search engine I just couldn’t find it). That being said, the main point of the article was about how Caveman-era humans were the first natural blondes, and this little fact just was buried in it. The article is still worth a read.

I can’t find it over there, Mrs. H. You mind sharing the URL?
Whether its true or not–I still adhere to the phrase: better living through modern chemistry.

OK, you’re right — but in reality, the guy who wrote that article has been had, too (though the article’s primary focus — About how Cavemen were the first blondes — is still interesting).
Thanks for that — I’ll update the post.
I guess this is the beginning of the end. It was great while it lasted.
