most of them are lying somalis think being caramel/light brown is lightskin

It is for Somalis. They are African not AA with more skin variation/range of people that actually are olive/white passing aka high yella that are considered black. The lightest an ethnic Somali is, is yellowish in tone (not olive). And light skin is mildly subjective. You are if most think you are or depending on context. Not necessarily one or two people who qualify being yellow skin with blue undertones as light. That's in the margins TBH. Most Somalis are mariin or darker and plenty of them are stunning with enviable features.

Could be overrepresentation (maybe sspot attracts those who avoid the sun). I kid. Or not having enough groups. Maybe you should have made sub-categories between brown and light aka light brown as well as between dark and brown. You need greater specificity.

I made a Somali skintone range display many years ago:



And yes, I'm aware that the girl to the left in row 2 is actually an Amhara but she fits the purpose of the illustration.
