I've been asked several times about my blonde hair/brown eye colour combination because people are intrigued by it. I had almost white blonde hair as a child and up until about 3 years ago still had very very light blonde hair, now it is more of a golden blonde (I'm 27 now) and I don't colour my hair. My brother has the same combination as me, my sister has green eyes. Our mum is Swiss and dad is Dutch/Chinese. It may be more common than people think, especially now with so many multicultural mixings that were not so common in the past.
Yes it is a possibility as long as your ancestors had blonde hair blue eyes. I went to school with an Asian with natural light brown and blond streaked hair, went to uni with a China national with natural medium blond (dishwater blond?) hair, and worked with another Asian with very fair porcelain skin that burns terribly under the sun, light brown eyes and light brown hair.
The first doesn't know her roots. Second lady from China has a Russian grandmother, and the third has absolutely no clue she is pure Chinese, married to a guy with jet black hair but her baby was born with blond hair. Strange how genes work!
My brother in law is has blond hair greeny eyes. Everyone I know from DH side of family going back 4 generations all have dark brown hair and hazel eyes. They joke he might have been a hospital mix up
Here's an interesting article if you can be bothered to read, would help if you have a background in biology. Otherwise read the Summary first before proceeding to skim through the article.

A lot of the northern Chinese actually have Caucasian genetics mixed in if their ancestors were near the Russian border - my cousin's girlfriend is Chinese but she looks completely Caucasian - hazel eyes, light brown hair, freckles (^(oo)^)
Huh? Most aborigines have a fair bit of Caucasian in them... before the first white settlers came they closely resembled Pacific Islanders. I live in Aus and the only ones I see with blonde hair are dyed
my daughter is a natural blonde and her eyes are hazel. i know that's different, but on many occasions her eyes look brown instead of green.
it was really noticeable when she was a todder because her hair was VERY light. it's still a light blonde now, but not as much as when she was a toddler.

Ditto! My hair was very blonde as a child, but it darkened over the years to a dark blonde.
Another natural brown-eyed blonde here and yeah, it was white blonde when I was a kid and is now a darker blonde. I have 2 sisters, both brunettes, one blue eyed and one hazel eyed. My genetics are 100% English.
When considering the possibility of the existance of brown eyed blondes, I submit to you the Playboy model Geri Glass--Sept. '73. While most of you talk about children, whose hair color may darken with age, she has blonde pubic hair. While it is risky to dye pubic hair, it is possible. But in 1973? This is a criteria I believe helps to separate true blondes and redheads, from women who dye their hair blonde or red. She also has freckles, which is also usually associated with blondes and redheads-----and of course, brown eyes. But did she dye her pubic hair? And what about the freckles? Those are the mysterious questions.
They definitly exist cuz if they didnt i wouldnt be here111!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I have really dark brown eyes and medium blonde hair!!!!! It was bleach blonde when i was younger. I get the eyes from my American Indian side and the blonde hair from my Sweedish side. I also have tan skin naturally, so I think it looks really good.
