Yep. It can be very difficult to determine hair color from a single hair even under a scope, much less from a poor quality photograph.
I've never seen the crime scene video where a scientific police officer is collecting the hair from Miss Kercher's genitalia and then bagging it, as B. Nadeau writes.
Nor did I watch the crime seen video and see him remove the one that was photographed in her upraised left hands grasp.
Have you or anyone else here seen these video's?
I doubt that the hair or fiber was blue, from her sweatshirt/jacket.
I happen to have done a few basic tests, yes dark hair, black or brown is a bit different than my own beach blonde hair when seen in person...
But the quote from Nadeau,
if she is quoting it from the crime scene video,
she says a male police officer pulled a
long hair from Kercher's blood-soaked hand.
"It's blonde."
As is the 1 also found upon examination, done in her bedroom, of her genitalia.
Nadeau also writes of discussion of Kercher's fingernails.
MichaelB, have you seen the crime scene video where this was done?
Are you stating that this never occurred or was made up?
"She has long fingernails, doesn't she?" asked Stefanoni, examining Meredith's hand.
"She has medium long fingernails, corrected the officer. He found no skin cells under the nails to show that she struggled for her life, but he put plastic bags over both hands to preserve the nails for further analysis. The police then lifted Meredith's head to measure the knife wound to her neck.
"
Mamma mia," said Stefanoni.
"
E abbastanza profondo-It's pretty deep" said the officer.
etc.

From reading elsewhere,
the Italian SC seems to somewhat believe a 2nd perp might have been involved.
From a link that
Scribbler at IIP posted:
Expertise coroner found that Meredith suffered sexual harassment and died after being wounded with some stab wounds, a blow to the throat launched. No one, at this point, can say if Rudy Guede has done everything himself or if someone helped him to immobilize the English girl and then he struck the fatal blow.
I've posted before that I think this hair,
if it is indeed so a hair, might be a light colored pubic hair from a guy,
for it's quite curvy like from a dude who does not trim his genital area at all...
But Nadeau says the hair was long.
Kercher had a Brazilian, no blonde hair was down there.
Nor shoulda been in her bloodied hand.
If that is indeed a long blonde hair,
and it is indeed seminal fluid,
and it is not from Rudy Guede,
someone was with him, maybe Koko,
and it was covered-up...
My opinion only.
