I believe it was originally blonde, but changed to white when he got cosmic awareness & powers. Then it just got miscolored in different appearances. -

It was definitely white in his first appearance in the green and white Kree uniform. I want to say it went blonde after he met Eon, but I cant exactly remember. Here is info from a fan site...
CAPTAIN MARVEL #29 VOLUME 1
Captain Marvel gains more powers
First story Jim Starlin writes solo
Iconic cover by Jim Starlin
Plenty of note worthy things in this issue. In order to defeat Thanos, Eon brings forth a metamorphosis for Captain Marvel's body and conscious. He then becomes Protector of the Universe and his Cosmic Awareness is heightened. Captain Marvel's hair also turns from white to blonde.
This is also the first issue where Jim Starlin writes the story solo without the help of Mike Friedrich, and the cover is considered a classic. John Romita ended up redrawing Captain Marvel's head. This comic was published November, 1973.Comment
