      That looks like incredibly an common hair style to me, also in the UK.

        And it’s her natural color! Tons of black Americans have brown and even blonde hair, largely as a result of slavery. Penalizing her for her lighter hair color is just the cherry on the shit sundae of what we’ve put black people through in this country.

      Wow, I was picturing some crazy color (which wouldn’t have anything wrong either), but this is a “normal” hair color!
