OK, maybe Ranma-chan isn't a redhead, maybe Usagi isn't a blond, but if
you want to claim that the Daitokuji's don't have natural lavender hair,
you've got a fight.

  As far as I'm concerned, all the hair colors in P: A-ko (with the
possible exception of Ayumi-sensei's) is really whatever color it appears to
be.  How come A-ko's a redhead and C-ko's a blond, then?  Simple--they
aren't Asians.  (Yeah, I know--you all already knew that. :P )  Don't ask me
to explain B-ko's hair, though.  Maybe she's a mutant. ^_^

        Hmmm...I don't know what color her hair is or anything about P: A-ko...
but speaking of Usagi & her blond hair...there are the Ainu...according to
my dictionary...an aboriginal Caucasian people inhabiting the northernmost
islands of Japan....does this have anything to do with it or should we just
chalk it up to "creative license"?
