That's what makes it interesting in a non ambiguous or non generalized way. If 11% of Scots having true blond hair seems low, we also have data saying only 16.6% of young adult Danes are also true blond. These statistics are not radically apart from one another. This is considering that only 1 out of 420 southern Spanish have true blond hair in a northern sense discussed here.
I think there Coon is going to the extreme, since blondes would only be those who have light blonde hair! Which is an exaggeration, blonde hair ranges from very light almost to a golden almost near light brown. The percentages of blonde would then be much higher in both populations and not so extremely low in the Spanish population as well. Proper statistics show that the proportion of blondes/light-haired to be in Spain varying from 17% in the north to 2% in the south, 11% of the Portuguese population is blonde/light-haired going from 15% in the north to much lower ratios in the south. In Italy, 12% have various shades of blonde hair, and in France 26% of the population is blonde/light-haired, with higher ratios in Normandy and much lower in the Pyrenees. Countries laying north of these have even higher proportion, England, Scotland and Germany are among them.
There will be many more round faces among Germans, French, Polish, Russians than among British people.
Thats funny because here I am sitting at work with 50 or so other people and every last damn one uf us has completely individual shaped heads! we don't all share this elusive 'British nose' either - in fact I would even go as far as to suggest that we are all 'different colours' too!

That is because you live in a part full of immigrants. I notice Romanians have very round faces.
It like here in Australia and I find that there are just less than 10% or just at 10% of the people are blonde here, and the same case as New Zealand. Even though a majority of the people there are of British and Irish background.
I live close to some beaches and a large majority of people are not blonde here. They mostly don't look the stereotype of the blonde surfer or the blonde beach attractive woman.
I guess in parts of America and Canada where there were areas were mostly settled by Scandanivans there would be a higher percentage of blondes than other parts of North America.
Depends where in Australia. Like John UK said, Melbourne has a lot of non-Anglo Europeans, especially Southern Europeans, very few of them are natural blondes. Go to the northern suburbs of Perth and you'll see a lot of blondes as a %. Of course it depends on the demographic, too. Children are more likely to be blonde, most British children start out blonde. With men it's harder to tell since most cut their hair short and it's darker nearer the roots, or looks darker at least. It's still a good 25-30% for British Australians in my estimation.

You're being difficult for the sake of being difficult. Your description of blond above in bold needs not to be elaborated any further, and is no different from what I said. True blond is colour beyond light brown, not necessarily the lightest albino platinum level.
It is true in combination with light brown, the percentages would be increased dramatically. But it's also interesting, from a comparative point of view, that we can show Scotland and Denmark in the same precise description of blond.
