Blondes outdo women with other hair colors

BlondesIf you are a blonde-haired woman then you can outdo woman with other hair colors when it comes to earning and marrying rich men. A new study conducted University of Queensland state that blonde-haired women are traditionally labeled as fun loving and less intelligent but they earn seven per cent more on average than women with other hair colors.

The men they marry earn six per cent more than the husbands of other women, the study stated.

About 13,000 women were surveyed for the study and it was found that the difference in pay remained the same even after removing factors such as height and education.

But Dr David Johnston, who led the study, said, "Blonde women are often depicted as being more attractive than other women, but also less intelligent. But it seems the association between blondes and beauty dominates any perception that they have low intelligence. This could explain why the 'blondeness effect' is evident in the marriage market."

Kristina Rihanoff, a blonde star on British TV reality show stated that, "I don't think blondes get paid more.”
