My son is a readhead.
We have moved five times, in two different states, and we still have the same red-headed milk man delivering the milk as I go to work. Must be a very large dairy with loyal delivery men. I remember him cause he sure looks like my two youngest boys.
Hopefully not a stepchild! ;o)
My Grandfather, sister and son all redheads. My brother has Irish setter red and if I'm out in the sun my hair goes from dark brown to reddish undertones.
Since both my husband and I have dark hair we always got second looks when all three of us were out together.
When they asked as where Robin got his red hair, my husband would reply that ''the car mechanic has red hair and he has been pretty good about his rates since Robin was born.''
Once Robin was asked (age 7 or 8) and he said Gromers (the supermarket we were at)
My wife and all four sons have red hair. We live in Utah. I'd guess 10 percent of the population here has red hair.
