I had my hair dyed red last summer. It actually looked quite nice.

I'm a redhead, not all bright orange though. Sister, mother, grandfather as well.

I am not a redhead.

My mum is not a redhead, and my dad is not a redhead.

In fact, nobody in my family (to the best of my knowledge -- even people related to me by marriage) is a redhead.

My aunt does, so does my brother. My grandad had red hair and I think there's a few great aunts/uncles.

Often skips a generation. My Mum and her brother have red hair. Unless I marry someone very dark, my kids (If i had any) would proably have red hair.

You're obviously a carrier. Depends on weather you marry another carrier.

Yeah. I know.

That's what I meant by marrying someone with dominent dark genes. Red is submissive.

Red hair is on the decline though, it is predicted that in just a few more generations there won't be any red-heads at all!

This disturbs me. I must do something about this.

Hey! I'll gladly impregnate any of the natural redheads on this board. Don't let our beautiful color fade out!

SAME HERE(Though I DO have a danish aunt(married my uncle), who has red hair, and my ancestry IS part Irish! ), but at least one set of pictures showed a red tinge, and my beard is also a bit red.
