Since she was Carthaginian, she was probably dark. The original Carthaginians were Phoenicians, from what is now Lebanon, and by Julia's time, they had probably intermarried with other North Africans. So Julia most likely had black, rather curly hair and a natural suntan. The only portraits I could find of her on the web are from centuries later and represent the artists' ideas of what she looked like:

The first of these is Renaissance and the second modern.

Since she is from Corsica I would assume she had dark hair. Even a cursory look on the internet, shows paintings of her with dark hair.
