What rhymes with Orange

Recently discovered my top descriptor is: Ginger. Up until today, I truly believed my existence held value beyond the neon Orange crown sitting on top of my skull. I thought my freckles were a charm, not a tally of every soul I’ve harvested from unsuspecting humans.

Turns out I’m just a genetic wild card in a world unequipped for high-visibility humans. Times are tough and the state of the world is uncertain, but I take comfort in one absolute truth: every single woman over the age of 68 thinks I am top 5 most handsome young men waiting in the pharmacy line at CVS.

Results of bleaching redhair

Hello redhairs, I'm new here.

First of all, I'm not redhead (imposter) bu I have a question for oomf and her red hair.

She's naturally red head and some days ago she dyed her hair blue. But since she didn't bleach it it looked brown. Ik that probably this is a stupid question, but does bleach work differently on redhairs? I swear that I tried searching info and all I found was about red hair dye.

Thank you

Thanks to everyone here! My new site is live. :)

Hey everyone- just updating those who asked me to update them on my new website Oroux Skin. (Pronounced "oh- roo") a coined phrase I came up with meaning "golden redhead". It is live and if you signed up or did the survey or sunscreen trial- (please make sure you filled out the survey for the SPF trial). The sale is on if you are interested. Not being spammy, just some of you asked me to give an update.

Thanks to all who did the survey! You all are amazing redheads!

P.S. there are Men's products and Haircare for sensitive skin too. AND we have a European warehouse now for the Óroux skin products so you won't need to pay VAT in most areas and post should be much less - we ship internationally on all the other things.

Picture of the newness.

Why do "only" the men who post here seem truly red-haired?

The photos of men posted here always scream "redhead"—the truly pronounced paleness, and the copper tone of the hair, eyebrows, and eyelashes. In contrast, the photos of many women often look like they have dyed hair, and their skin isn't usually truly pale (perhaps it's just makeup or a fake tan). Of course, this doesn't apply to every woman, but the pattern repeats itself.

I stated in the body of the text that I am not generalizing about all the women who post here. It isn't hard to understand that I didn't generalize.

I wish I could love someone as much as old people love my red hair

As a teenage male, my hair is naturally red but not that red, it’s about as standard orange as you could get. I work at a grocery store where a majority of our customers are elderly, and the compliments they give for my hair just make my day every time. One sweet old lady once told me that she loved my color and that her husband was the same, “unfortunately” their kids were blonde however her grandkids ended up redhead, she was awesome. SOME people my age tend to make fun of me for my hair, but I’ve received nothing but love from old grocery shoppers for it. Of course old people love to compliment, but I’ve noticed that they especially love to compliment when it’s about red hair, which I for one am very supportive of

How do redheads feel about being depigmented?

Redheads lack melanin which is why they are pale and the red is revealed because they do not make brown melanin so the hidden and incorrect orange pheomelanin is what remains.

Pheomelanin is oxidative and harmful unlike Eumelanin which offers real protective qualities.

Redheads have a pigmentation issue but how does it feel having it?

What haircut would suit me?

I always end up with bad cuts. I have double cowlicks at the back of my head that grow in opposite directions, my hair is straight coarse and thick. I think part of what makes me an unattractive guy to women is my constant bad haircuts?

I feel like I've seen this picture a million times, but i wanted to hear some's opinions here

For Years, there have been dozens of ginger characters in comics and cartoons in OG media that have been recreated and Not been ginger afterward.

Most of these they dont even give the actor red hair at all!

I saw this for the first time years ago and it really upset me, now i just think its Hollywood not caring to find ginger actors past sadie sink..

Edit: theres are users who has been showing templates like this of gingers being replaced by other white people, its around in the comments. This is just the image Im firmiliar with, im not talking about race, just gingers being replaced by ANYONE who isn't actually ginger !
