Today, my mother told me that my father once told her that he was glad she wasn't a red head. He wouldn't have married her if she was because he hates red heads. I am his red-headed daughter. FML

I don't like orange hair either... but DYED red is cool...

I have brown hair and I don't like it! I want red hair I think that it looks really pretty !

So if neither of your parents have red hair, clearly your real father must be the red-headed mailman, am I right?

When 2 blond persons have a kid, it's hair has a high chance of turning ginger. Furthermore, if one of the OP's grand-parents or other forefather was a red-head, the colour may skip a generation or two and hit OP right in the face. Genetics, mee dearie :)

Sadly know the feeling my grandmother said whilst travelling to the hospital when I was born... Well I hope she isn't a red head... Sorry nan u got another red head (she had to love me though haha)

I don't like red heads too. I like the collor red but not when it's on someome's hair.

Unfortunately (for you) red hair is a strongly recessive gene. It is rare (like blue eyes) because it requires both the parents to have the phenotype, even as a recessive gene, for the child to have it. This means that in order for you to have red hair, either both parents have to have it, or the parent that didn't have it had to have both of THEIR parents have it. If you grandparent's on your Father's side don't have (or had) red hair, it means that you are illegitimate or adopted. I am really sorry to have to tell you this, but it is basic genealogy and easily researchable. Again, if your Father's parent's didn't have red hair, I am really sorry you had to find this from a stranger on the internet.

At least u aren't the red-headed step child.
