Like Fatima, I am an African-American woman with naturally red hair. I never hated my hair color because my parents always told me how beautiful and unique it was/is. I have yet to find anyone with red hair quite like mine. Sometimes I’ll catch a glimpse of my refelection and say “thank you Mom and Dad for this recessive mutated gene!”

totally true about everyone telling you “oh, you look just like such and such” simply because such and such also has red hair.

There was a guy in my graduating class with sandy blond hair…. and a fiery red beard. Totally natural, totally awesome. Everyone loved that beard…

^^ that’s awesome. My natural hair color is brownish-red, but I think that has something to do with being outside in the sun over the years. I bleached my hair red this summer, I’ve gotten called some names, but I don’t regret going red, but I am dyeing back to black soon.

Imagine being african american with naturally red hair. I was teased in school and hated my hair. I didn’t start to appreciate it until I was grown. Now I get so many compliments. It’s also naturally curly so I tend to stand out in crowds and it’s great!
