I can see where you are deriving your question from but that is the nature
of anime.  We might as well ask if Trunks dyes his hair because he is the
only person, besides his mother and sister, in that world with an
"unnatural" hair color.  But then we have to ask what is natural?

I understand the reasoning behind non-natural hair colors in animes. . . or
at least I believe that I do.  As I recall, from several years ago when I
first started watching anime, in an attempt to make characters different
from one another the branch of different color hairs were used.  The blacks
turned to blues and greens and purples since if everyone had raven hair then
it would start to get somewhat hard to tell some people apart....

At least this is the way it was explained to me. . . I could very well be
wrong and if so, I beg of someone to correct my mis-assumption. . .
