As a true blonde, I can relate. I went brunette in recent years - it does seem to make a difference in terms of getting people to take me more seriously. That’s a sad commentary.
LOL! I’m more on the red side, but I went a darker red for awhile, because the blond really comes out in the summer. It is true. People treated me like my IQ went up 30 points with the darker hair.
Now I don’t care anymore.
