Admittedly, this townie archetype fixation was fixed at least partially by the latest update, but it's still noticeable. While it used to be about 90% of the time, the Japanese and Moroccan townie archetypes are still weighted in favor of red or blonde hair over black hair between 60 and 70% of the time. And more often than not, if I age down an elder with a Japanese or Moroccan name, they'll have red or blonde hair. I have never once seen brown hair among either archetype. For comparison, Sims with Indian names, from my observations, are dark-haired the vast majority of the time.
This was tested on an unmodded file.
Update: This issue is now infinitely worse after the installation of Snowy Escape. It is extremely noticeable. We're right back to red or blonde hair for these archetypes at least 90% of the time.
