November 4 is Love Your RED Hair Day

so we’ve gathered some facts about our dear ginger friends…

Redheads Don’t Necessarily Have Flowing Locks

Redheads actually have less hair, than brunettes or blondes. Brunettes have an average of 140,000 hair strands while blondes have 110,000 and redheads only have about 90,000. Though, often redheads have thicker and coarser strands of hair that make it seem fuller.

They’re Pretty Rare

In today’s world, only about 2% of people are redheaded. It is due to the nature of human globalization and the red hair gene itsef –we’re spreading lot more than ever before in history. Red hair is a recessive gene and needs another carrier to be passed on, and as population expands, redheads in the world mate with non-gene-carriers, and the population diminishes.

There’s More Variety than You Think

Redheads come in all sorts of shades - golden hair, bright orange or maybe just strawberry blonde.

Dying Red Hair Is Hard

Because of red is such a strong pigment, red hair has to be stripped of its natural color entirely before another is added. So better not to bother.

Happy Love your Red Hair day!
