When your child is born, a red hue beams from their head, and it will be magnificent! You will be constantly flattered with compliments about the colour of your ginger child’s hair, including doctors, nurses, dentists, shop assistants…just anyone, really.
…like it has some kind of mystical power (it does).
Redheads are in good company, sharing the same hair colour as: Pebbles from The Flintstones, the little red-haired girl in Charlie Brown, Scooby Doo’s Daphne, Strawberry Shortcake, Chuckie from Rugrats, Kim Possible, Blossom the Powerpuff Girl, Princess Fiona from Shrek, Ariel in The Little Mermaid, and most recently, Princess Merida from Brave.
You will never know a similar excitement as one that comes from buying sunblock at a discount, and better yet, buy one get one free!
…except maybe at a redhead event. The red hair shines like a beacon – it’s a red glow from a lighthouse of awesomeness.
Cute beyond belief.
If only to find out where your child’s red hair came from, you will find yourself tracing your family history until you find a sign of the ginger gene.
Your child will never be satisfied with drawings of themselves. Red crayons are too dark, orange is too bright, and red-orange does not capture the shine of ginger hair.
Redheads are incredibly rare, and it takes a unique person to sport a vibrant natural colour atop one’s head.
