There are advantages and disadvantages to being born ginger. Red hair
comes from a recessive gene, which is why it's rare. Both genetic
parents have to contribute a red-haired gene for the color to express
itself. That same gene gives the offspring a few other things that make
him or her different from people with black, brown, or blond hair. For
example, did you know that redheads normally don't get gray hair?
The
pigment in red hair stays around much longer than other colors, and
instead of going grey, the reddish color simply fades to a
silver-white.
A woman I know did exactly that, and I came close to asking where she got her color done. Read the rest of the
things that make redheads different at Buzzfeed.
