Yuya & Thuya
Amenhotep III, had many wives, one chief wife was Tiye, daughter of Yuya and Thuya. It has often been speculated that Tiye was also the mother of Tutankhamun .

Thuya , Yuya, husband and wife blond Egyptians? Not royals, but their daughter Tiye was one of Amenhotep III wives.
I guess the one on the left is Tiye's father and the one on the right is her mother.

Note the color of the hair is not blond, it is actually a gold color. Out of the tomb with bright shinny hair, looks like shampooed and given sparkle effects? I don't think I have ever seen a living person with this color of hair?
Look at the one on the right, it is not only gold in the face, but has gold colors on the skin of the chin and forehead.

Here are some pictures of these  mummies (above) "blond Egyptians". You can not tell the color of the hair from the left picture because it is not colored

But you can tell from the gold mask and the statue, this person had brown eyes and from the statue on the right, you can tell they had very dark brown skin.
I don't know about you, but I have never seen any person with dark brown skin this color with golden blond hair?
There are African tribes that uses cow urine to turn their hair kind of reddish blond, but I never saw any black, brown with this golden color of hair.
Was their hair dyed, was there embalming chemicals that turned the hair this color? or were there actually dark brown people with natural golden color hair?
One of the best ways to research the possible color of Yuya & Thuya's hair is to look for all the paintings and statues that were made before they died and see if there are any paintings of them with black hair.

The next thing we can do is look at their children.. and we just happen to know one of their children ... princes Tiye was one of Amenhotep III wives.

What are the chances this Egyptian queen (Tiye) came from golden blond hair parents? She is the daughter of those two supposed blond mummies.

Only if there are no paintings of her parents (the mummies Yuya & Thuya)  with black hair would you consider the blond mummy assertion. One of the first things to test the "blond hair" story would be to have the hair of those mummies tested by forensic scientist.
