Sensitivity to Hot and Cold
According to some studies, a side effect for redheads is that they are more sensitive to hot and cold pain than any other hair color.
Ginger King and Queen in Netherlands
Each September, the Netherlands holds a two-day celebration out of appreciation for redheads around the world which is called Roodharigendag in Dutch. The party includes crowning the ginger King and Queen.
Types of Redheads
There is a variety of red hair than you think. Red hair comes in so many different colors (Burnt Orange, Copper, Blonde, Ginger), sizes (Short and long) and shapes as other hair colors.
Behavior with Redheads in Past
They have been treated awfully in the past. Hitler was against the intermarriage of redheads believing that they produce more devil children.
Bee’s attraction Towards Redheads
According to some studies bees are more attracted to redheads than any other hair color, probably it’s because they seem like sweet red flowers because of their red crown of hair.
Redheads are Hot-headed
Redheads are also known as hot-headed. However, there is no confirmation of this being valid. It might be just because of their red hair color they are called hot headed in a sense of joke.

Hello, as far as redheads being more hot-headed, I definitely agree that it’s because we are teased so much as kids and eventually we just bite whoever pokes fingers at us. Kids can be very mean to kids who stand out. Both my son and daughter were born with red hair, Keegan has blue eyes and Tanya has got dark brown. Mine is also blue and although I’m almost 51, I have practically no grey hair yet. Lucky for us!

I have a son with red hair and brown eyes. I could not ask for a more thoughtful, caring young man. He is very unique in that he likes what he likes and doesn’t care what anyone says about it. He’d give the shirt off his back to anyone. Once Cory is your friend he’s your friend for life! I wouldn’t trade him for anything!

Nice to know about Cory 🙂

Yes, red hair with brown eyes combination is uncommon but when we compare it with red hair & blue eyes combination, it is more common.
Terry Kraft
Ginger with blue eyes. Hated it growing up. I think male gingers get a bad rap for being odd looking, but I’ve grown into a unique looking ginger that turns heads wherever I go. Proud now.

I am a redhead. I have blue eyes that change to green sometimes. Im.. Uhm well lets just say I’m weird xD

I’m a red head and I can say we are spawns of Satan. One day we shall all come and devour your soul.
Paisley
Wow, I heard redheads were rarer, being one myself, but I had no idea that my blue eyes were also thrown in the category of rare.
Sandra Freed
You actually have the same chance as any other person, but since red hair and blue eyes are both rare, chances to be born with both are low, I’m red hair and hazel BTW.
Ella Pazare
Ohh I have red hair and green eyes❤💚

I have red hair, and this article has both right and wrong information (at least the wrong things are not true for me). The real reason Blue is rare with redheads is because it is a rare color in general, and when combined with the rarity of red hair, it is one of the least common combinations. Even if the second “fact” is true, don’t just call us mutants, we get offended. The one about redheads being left handed is FALSE, your strong hand is the hand you learned to use most, I’m right handed, and in fact lost my left hand.
I am more sensitive to the cold than my sister, who is blonde. This might not be true for all reds, but I do consider myself to be a hot-head. About being easy to find, it all depends on the size of the crowd and ratio of redheads to others.
AND WHO THE HECK THOUGHT WE WERE VAMPIRES?!

These are all true. Especially the last one.

Redheads have more allergies than any other hair color.

Hi, i have red hair and brown eyes. For people who cant stand it if someone calls you ginger, i have a tip: make a contest about who had the most original joke about redheads. It is just very funny what you here sometimes. There is this bully who is on the top of the list without knowing it. Its just funny, try it out. Also, am i the only one who sweats and gets a red face although i am not embarresed at all? Btw, good facts
Robert Rudd
Hey there,
I am a redhead with green eyes and I feel shut out of the world due to my gingerness and always have. It’s nice to see that people like me care and respect being unique. I mean really why is it that when I date a red haired girl everyone assumes she is my sister, it’s wrong and I want to stop this bias behavior the world has toward us. Thank you.
Abi McCartney
Wow, what a great article. I have long ginger hair, freckles, blue eyes and I’m left handed. I have very sensitive skin and teeth! My sense of humour and the amount that I laugh is often commented on. I love being around people and embrace the light hearted ridicule that I receive on a daily basis for being so different. I’m not hot headed, more laid back if anything. However I’m very passionate, loving and caring. I was very fourtunate not to be picked on at school, I guess I was a cool kid and got on with everyone (I’m 30 by the way). I wouldn’t suggest I am proud to be a red head, just grateful to be loved for being me.
Malachai Smith
I’m a redheaded teen guy and I am not just a red-head ginger. I am on the full-on-fire-headed level and I have often been made fun of for it. To find that I am not the only one and that we can actually be appreciated is a huge blessing. Too often, I have been mocked and insulted in my hallways at school. So, to know that they are being stupid is awesome. My heart and my soul are so happy to find this community of red-heads.
