Margot Robbie’s Natural Hair Color Isn't What You'd Expect

Margot Robbie may look like a real-life Barbie doll with her long blond hair — her role in the "Barbie" film only drives that comparison home — but you may be surprised to learn her natural hair color. Though she's been blond for most of her major motion pictures — "The Wolf of Wall Street," "Suicide Squad," "Amsterdam," and "I, Tonya," for example — the actor's original hair color is a much darker shade. In fact, Robbie's natural hair color is brown.

If you look at old red carpet images of Robbie, you can occasionally find her wearing a hue that's closer to her natural color, but she's spent the majority of her career as a blond. "I always dyed it dark in high school," she told Elle magazine in a 2014 interview. "I was devastated when I had to go blond." It didn't take too long for her to get used to it though, and now, she embraces the light color. "Once I was blond for a couple of years, I ended up loving it. But I don't have a preference. I like both."

Occasionally you can find her switching behind the two colors. For example, at the 2014 Oscars, Robbie's hair was an ultra-dark, rich-brown color. She wore a similar shade for her role as Valerie Voze in "Amsterdam," but that was courtesy of some amazing wig. Now, she's in full Barbie mode with her shiny, bright blond on full display and it appears that she'll keep it that way for the foreseeable future.
