This image shows a stereotype that brunettes are the most trustworthy, implying that hair color and trustworthiness have a connection. However, I find faulty logic in that. What does hair color have to do with being able to keep a secret? I believe this stereotype arises from another stereotype, "blondes are dumb" - therefore blondes cannot keep things to themselves. Brunettes and blondes are constantly contrasted, so if blondes are dumb and unable to be trusted, then brunettes would be smarter and more trustworthy. What does this imply about other hair colors, such as red hair?
