I hope this post is welcome even though I don't have red hair myself. But I gave birth to the most beautiful little baby boy a month ago, and his hair is red as fire. But nobody in either mine or my partners family have red hair. Not even a little. Not even in the entire extended family. Nothing. My first thought when he came out was "how is his hair red!?". It suits him, though, and he's just completely perfect. Do any of you red haired people also come from families with no red hair at all? Is this common?
