Why Does Blonde Hair Sometimes Turn Green? (And How to Prevent It)

No, egg does not typically turn blonde hair green.

The most common reason for blonde hair turning green is exposure to copper in swimming pools (treated with copper-based algaecides) or in well water. The copper binds to the hair protein and causes a greenish tint.

While some foods can temporarily stain hair (think beet juice), egg does not contain pigments or chemicals that would react to turn hair green.
