They change, but you can’t change them - without severe health implications. My hair was brown when I was born. It is still brown. I wasn’t assigned brown hair, I have brown hair. I am brown-haired. I am more than the colour of my hair, but that remains the colour of my hair.

Sure. Hence the reference to context. Does that make it untrue that there's a difference? (Still working as a metaphor)

Of course there's a difference, but it's one that doesn't really matter and one it's rude to be inquisitive about The biological details of how my hair came into its current state - dyed, transplanted, synthetic hairpiece - are none of your fucking business

Also, fwiw, things like pregnancy & severe illness (usually with high fever) can literally change the way new hair grows out of your head both in color and texture. It’s less static and unalienable than people are assuming.
