Are there any pictures of Bela and Farin with their natural hair colour? I've just realised that I've never seen either of them with natural hair so I'm wondering if this exists somewhere xD
Yeah there are photos of that :D Bela's own hair colour is dark brown, and Farin's is what he has described as "dunkel blond" before, so what that is, a darker shade of blond? Looking at his childhood photos it looks like he's also a case of that classic blond that starts almost white in one's childhood and then gets darker by age (mine is the exact same too, btw, altho I've dyeing mine with black since I was 19 :DD).
This is Bela's real hair colour afaik:
I don't remember where I read it and take this with a grain of salt because I can't fact-check this now, but I think I read somewhere that during this time he had read that someone in media or so criticised him for always dyeing his hair and not being capable of being with his real hair colour or whatever, and he decided to be like "you know what? let's not dye it then" and did not dye it with anything for a couple of years. So Jazz ist anders! and OVERKILLER era are Bela with his actual undyed haircolour.
Farin on the other hand, there are not many times when he'd have shown up without bleached hair or otherwise dyed hair. Sometimes he does photography stuff without dyeing his hair, but it seems like he needs his hair to be at least bleached before he agrees to do any music stuff in public. But I THINK he has his real colour or at least roots in most of these images:
Also there are several clips on Schattenreich when they're in studio, and I think that's his own colour. Or, what his hair colour was when he was in his 30s.
I know from an experience that natural blond hair in photos is always a hoax because it always looks lighter or darker than in real life because of how it reflects light, and especially if flash is used (which is very normal in studio photography like promo pics etc.), so I'd say these Schattenreich clips are closest to reality because they're filmed with a video camera without a flash. (Like, I have lots of childhood photos where my hair looks almost brown and then in the next one it's extremely light blond, and I never ever dyed it until I was 19 and went directly to black hair. I think my own colour is very similar to Farin's in these clips so it used to behave the same way in photos.)
His hair is much darker nowadays tho, and I have a bunch of these weird-ass FURT photos that I still don't know why they exists, but here's one, tho it's a bit desaturated photo (and why is there a godzilla at the background, and why have I never noticed that before???):
Have two more actually because they're not as saturated but his hair looks so much darker but again, I have no idea if it's actually that dark irl or if it's just the camera doing things again. (Damn Schrödinger's hair colour the blond hair...)
What comes to more recent photos, as I said, he often does not dye his hair for photography related stuff and you can see his current real haircolour in this photos for his idk how to even call this, but anyway for this talk tour he's gonna do later this year :D This one is from his website.
Ok I hope you got your answer! I just can't stop talking when asked to research something lmao
