Go Grab The Peroxide!

It's been pretty hectic in our office lately, so when I saw research that made me laugh out loud I thought it was worth sharing. Happy Monday!

According to a study conducted by the University of Queensland in Australia and reported in the Telegraph, Blondes earn about 7% more than brunettes, the equivalent of an additional year of education. The study involved over 13,000 Caucasian women and removed variable factors like height, weight and education levels.

It gets worse (or better), depending on your perspective. This same study showed that men who have blonde wives earn about 6% more than husbands of wives with other hair color.

You can read the article in the Telegraph, see the reasons given for the difference and then make up your own mind. Isn't it amazing what research can tell us?
