Here is your answer:

Let me tell you that it is the biggest misconception that Polar bears are white in colour. Actually, their hairs that may seem white to us are transparent. They look white because of a trick that light plays onto our eyes. Basically they look white because white snow is all around them. And now if you may think that maybe their skin is of white colour then that's wrong. The skin of a polar bear is black.

hope it helps you!!
