My mother has red hair. Mine was an odd ash/auburn colour, in between when I changed from a towheaded baby to a dark ash blonde pre-teen. I actually died it Clairol "Copper Penny" for a few years, then Manic Panic "Green Envy"-- before going to Clairol "Black Cherry." Then, I went for the light blonde of my childhood. It was pink for a spell, while I was trying to pull the black cherry dye out with multiple apps of stripper. :p This was my first lesson in how red dye "grabs."

I leave the red to true redheads these days. I do carry the gene, though. Shall I bank some of my DNA? :)

It did.

The reahead gene is recesive and the brown hair gene is dom. So if a redhead gets with a brown haired person chances are their kids will have brown hair.

So basically to keep it around redheads will have to reproduce with redheads.

That's what I figured they were getting at, I already figured that out before reading the article, it's just for some reason I didn't seem to get that out of it. It was early when I read it, that's probably why.

Red hair certainly has made the endangered list. But with 4 percent of 6.4 billion people carrying the gene, says University of Rochester Medical Center's David Pearce, it is too large a figure to be wiped out completely in the next 95 years.

Am I the only one that read that part?

I didn't notice one thing in there that actually stated WHY this is happening. I wonder what the reason is...?

To make my life miserable. :cry

A crisis is no time to tell us we're not having a crisis! Now find me some redheads to breed with, stat!

    • I am currently floored.   FedEx did a massive 6 box delivery to the wrong address.  I had an autoship order scheduled to arrive before this past weekend.  Nothing showed up.  I contacted the order site and they had a link for the order...a photo of all my boxes thrown in the snow and up the sidewalk of a residence that was not mine.   You would think that at some point, the driver would have looked at the delivery address after they kept throwing box upon box at this location with no shelter from the elements.  They didn't even knock on the door to inform the residents that massive 65+ pound boxes were left all over their walkway.  Nope.  Just dumped them, took a photo as they were walking away and left.   I wonder what the person who found all of those misdelivered boxes must have been thinking when they saw them.  Maybe they kept everything to use, distribute or sell.  No idea.  No claim was filed on that end as of yet.   Fortunately for me, one of the sites that I ordered from, replaced everything at no extra cost.   Unfortunately, now I'm concerned for the other items yet to be delivered.   Needless to say, I'll be watching my notifications like a hawk.
