I always like the tale that my Gramma used to tell. It appears that when God was creating hair colors he left the red heads for last. Just as he finished the hair he sneezed! That's why red heads have freckles!

BTW trivial item remembered from a long ago Parade Sunday magazine. Blonds have an avg of 120,000 hair folicles on their scalp. Brunettes average 105,000. Redheads 85,000.

A search of Redhead brings up a host of websites where their is an angst for their downtrodden nature! Wanted to link to an image but these sites won't allow a "view the source" html look see! And at several of the sites you "have to be a redhead to join"! One site vows to "fight redism!"

YW, I have never met a downtrodden redhead in my life and I was one of 5 out of 14 grandchildren.
LOL, maked me want to stomp on you for even thinking such a thing. ;-)

I don't know about the follicle thing. You could pull out half my hair and I would still have thicker hair than most people I know.
