Most of the people with light eyes are of Balkan heritage and look fully European.

Seeing people with light eyes and tanned skin like Levantine Arabs - Syrians, Palestinians, Lebanese is very rare here

Thick hair is also uncommon most are balding and have thin hair

Most people have brown hair, brown eyes, and pale skin.

I would say the pheno I mentioned is more common among even Kurds or mostly levantines than here

Overall I would say Levantine Arabs mog western turks hard.

Many men here look Greek but not in an exotic way. The Anatolian looking ones lack contrast in their coloring.

There isn't much genetic differentiation between Turks of various regions. So not much between Balkan Turks vs Eastern Anatolian Turks vs Western Anatolian Turks vs Mediterranean Region Turks and so forth.

There also isn't much difference between Kurds and Turks.

In terms of skin tone, most of Turkey is "intermediate" albeit one part of Northern Turkey is slightly lighter (closest to the Northern Caucasus region).

I think the physical differences between Kurds and Turks are exaggerated. They overwhelmingly overlap genetically and physically.
