Most Common Hair And Eye Color Combination

The most common hair and eye color combination in the world is brown hair and brown eyes. According to a study by the World Atlas, between 75% and 85% of the world’s population has dark brown or black hair, and 70% to 79% of people have brown eyes.

Above 55% of the world has brown eyes. However, this is mostly because Asian is the most swarming and the most common race in the world. In the US, the most massive inundation of ancestral traits came from Europe. Europeans usually do not have brown eyes. The second-largest attribute came from Africa primarily brown eyes. The third genetic trait in North America came from the native Americans, mostly (but not exclusively has brown eyes).

One can speculate that even in Canada and the US, the most common eye color is brown, like the rest of the world collectively.

However, these days, there are many more cross-breeds of people of various ethnicities than before. So because of that, I would presuppose that brown eyes would not only continue to be the world’s most common eye color but that it would have an increase in the percentage of what it is today.

 The world’s breakdown by eye color is as follows:

1. Brown – with 55% of the population

2. Hazel – with 5%

3. Blue – with 8%

4. Green – with 2%

5. Amber – with 5%

There are also some odd colors, such as Black, Silver, and Red. The data from where I got the information didn’t elaborate. The numbers do not add up to 100%, but this is worth noticing that even within the presiding colors, there are many alternatives such as green eyes or solid green eyes with small brown specks or large brown dots. So it is possible to have e with more than one color, which may not be shown in the data.

It is a genetic issue, but one that is much more complex enough than first thought. There is not a single gene that is responsible for eye color but a combination of genes. Because of that, blue-eyed parents could produce brown-eyed children.
