 | | Blond hair can be found in humans and certain breeds of dogs and cats, among other mammalian species. | | | Certain caucasians with pale complexions are able to pass as natural blonds because there is little contrast between their natural skin and hair colours. | | | However, many English speakers will often use either one without regard to the French system of grammatical gender, and without a clear majority usage one way or another. |

| | Charlemagne - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
| | Charlemagne in later imagery (as in the Dürer portrait) is often portrayed with flowing blond hair, due to a misunderstanding of Einhard, who describes Charlemagne as having canitie pulchra, or "beautiful white hair", which has been rendered as blonde or fair in many translations. | | | The Latin word for blond is flavus, and rutilo, meaning auburn, is the word Tacitus uses for the Germans' hair. | | | The images of enthroned Charlemagne, God's representative on Earth, bear more connections to the icons of Christ in majesty than to modern (or antique) conceptions of portraiture. |

| | "Encyclopedia of Mental Health: Shyness" |
| | Other biological correlates are blue eye color with blond hair and pale skin, and allergies, especially hay fever, which have been reported more frequently in families of inhibited children and in the most introverted and fearful of a sample of college undergraduates. | | | Furthermore, inhibited infants are more often born in September or October, a time in which the body is producing more melatonin, a neurally active hormone which may be transmitted to the fetus. | | | When continuities in shy children were traced into adulthood using archival data, adult males were described as lacking poise, aloof, withdrawing when frustrated, disliking demands, and reluctant to take action, but adult females in midlife evidenced no particular problems, following more conventional patterns of marriage and homemaking than their non shy counterparts. |
