Vegeta Hair Color Change
[Dragon Ball Z] Why did Vegeta's hair change from red to black upon arriving on Earth? And then stay black wherever he went afterwards? Archived post. New comments cannot be posted and votes cannot be cast. These days, Vegeta's look is instantly recognizable.
With his black hair, blue suit, and white and gold armor, his look is iconic. However, in the anime's early days, Vegeta's color scheme was almost completely different, having light brown hair, a dark blue suit with a green and orange set of armor. King Vegeta's hair colour has been the subject of some debate among fans of the Dragon Ball franchise.

While it is generally accepted that pure Saiyans have black hair, King Vegeta is usually depicted with brown hair, with some artworks also portraying his hair as black with grey lighting. This inconsistency in hair colour can be attributed to early anime production decisions, as the animators. Because manga are black and white and Vegeta's actual hair color hadn't been determined in the manga yet by the time the episode came out and they made it red.
Bulma had purple hair in the manga (hence why Trunks had purple hair). But, the anime had her hair that teal/blue color, but in DBZ they kept Trunks color purple, but then in Super changed it to blue to fit the anime's blue Bulma. Even weirder, kid Trunks still has purple hair in Super.

They should have just kept Trunks hair purple to begin with. Vegeta's hair colour has been the subject of much discussion among fans, with some noting that it appears to change from brown to black at various points in the Dragon Ball series. In the manga, Vegeta's hair is consistently portrayed as black, while in the anime, it is mostly black but with occasional dark brown highlights.
Why Was Vegeta's Hair Red? When Dragon ball Z first aired, Vegeta and Nappa looked very different than how they do now. They had different colors for their armors and even Vegeta's hair. Conclusion In conclusion, the change in Vegeta's hair color from his signature dark tone to a vivid red was not an arbitrary stylistic choice by the creators.

Instead, it marked an essential stage in his character development and power progression within the Dragon Ball series. Vegeta's case is corrected in the Dragon Ball Kai version of this episode and in the Dragon Ball Full Color Manga version as well. Nappa's was not, though it is possible he owns more than one suit of Battle Armor.
In-universe, his hair didn't change color, as he stated. Toei Animation's recent Vegeta anniversary post reminds old school Dragon Ball Z fans that the iconic Saiyan prince once had a much different look.
