Hello
After reading this sentence ,I feel that there is one missing word between was and the colour,which is the word " of "
she was beautiful and her hair was the colour of gold.
Isn't better to say : she was beautiful and her hair was of the colour of gold.
Tell me please if my sugestion is o.k or not .

Hi Anas,

I would choose this: her hair was the colour of gold.
