This thread feels so familiar... [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]
Only the Vanyar ("fair elves") had blonde hair. Galadriel (Noldor) was light-haired because she was partly Vanyar.
Teleri were dark-haired, except the kin of Elwe, who had Silver hair. The Sindar aer Teleri; Thranduil and Legolas are Teleri. It doesn't necessarily follow that just because his father had golden hair that Legolas was blonde - blonde could be a recessive gene. [img]smilies/rolleyes.gif[/img]
