Her hair is blue because the artists made it that way. The hair colour
is about as natural as Utena's or Chibiusa's, who I think were born
with pink hair.

Anime for the most part is not nature. There may be things that can be
related to real life, but this is one of the many that isn't one of
them. Characters are pure fantasy, which means that they be anything
anyone wants them to be.
