1. Natural red hair is harder to dye than other colors
They say that redheads are stubborn. True or not, what we do know is that red hair is really very stubborn when it comes to coloring.
If redheads want to dye their hair any other color, they will only notice a noticeable difference if you do a bleaching before. Otherwise, the color will hardly take.
2. Redheads have less hair
In terms of total thread counts, Redheads have far less hair than any other natural color variation.
On average, beautiful fiery-haired women have 90 thousand strands of hair, below the blondes, with 110 thousand and the brunettes with 140 thousand.
However, this does not mean that they have a natural tendency to baldness or hair loss. Just as red hair is sparser than blonde and brunette hair, are considerably thicker, giving the impression that they are more numerous.
3. Red hair doesn't turn gray
True to its reputation for stubbornness, natural red hair retains its natural pigment much longer than other colors.
So, there is no reason to panic about gray hair: red hair simply loses tonal intensity over time, gaining beautiful light shades of copper and pinkish blonde.

4. “Red Hair + Blue Eyes” is the rarest combination in the world
Most people with natural red hair have brown eyes, with some individuals having brown and green undertones.
But like red hair, blue eyes are a recessive trait, meaning that both parents need to carry the gene that will be inherited by the child. This makes the “red hair + blue eyes” combination the rarest in the world, reaching only 1% of redheads.
5. Redheads are more sensitive to “heat pain”
Numerous studies have already looked into the genetics of redheads to find something that proves that they are more or less sensitive to pain.
Research shows that Redheads are more sensitive to pain caused by cold or heat, and their bodies are capable of change the internal temperature much more quickly.
Additionally, in surgical cases, redheads may need approximately up to 20% more anesthesia than people with other hair colors. The exact reason for this is still unknown.
