Christmas lights twinkle in the street, turkey-strewn sandwiches dominate coffee shop shelves, and yep, that’s a distant rendition of Last Christmas you can hear…Christmas is coming!
But what do you buy as a Christmas gift for a redhead? They’re incredibly rare, awesome, and potentially a bit feisty, so it’s important to keep them happy. And if they’re particularly proud of their gingerness (which all redheads should be, of course), then giving them a present that relates to their red hair will land you top marks this Christmas.
We’ve done the legwork for you and have put together a list of the perfect Christmas gifts for gingers. Most are silly – all are awesome.

Redhead literature
Whether you want to read or write about ginger hair, there’s heaps to keep your favourite redhead occupied while they’re snuggled up by the fire.
Learn all about the loooong history of red hair in A History of the Redhead or read about its many quirks with The Big Redhead Book or A Field Guide to Redheads. Then, detail every aspect of your ginger life with journal My Life as a Redhead. Take your pick, or buy them all!

GINGE, GINGE, and more GINGE
Help Gingerkind claim back the world ‘Ginge’, which is too often used as an insult towards redheads. We’ve had enough, so we’re embracing ‘Ginge’ as a celebration instead!
Our GINGE range has grown everso slightly out of control, but at least that means you can choose from plenty of items, including mugs, pins, clothing, and even Christmas baubles!
