I should start a crew of redheads. We would only fight at night to avoid blistering.

[Ransom]

Alas, that's why I had to reserve my tricorn for night escapades or indoor functions, and switch to a wide-brimmed hat for daytime. At Nor Cal, where there was NO shade, even with 50 proof sunblock on, my face fried.

[Red-Handed Jill]

That's why I'm SOOOO glad that I'm part Indonesian and North African. I've got my Irish grandmother's auburn hair but I don't burn that easily. In order for me to get a noticeable sunburn I'd have to forget to wear sunscreen and be out all day on the water. By comparison, Jack (who is Cajun with dark hair) burns fairly easily.

I was at PIP for a week last year and I didn't burn. I've learned to dodge sunlight over the years.

[Black Syren]

Im brunette and Im hijacking this thread!

Okay, there must be a trick to it. Care to teach a tutorial on sun dodging? It would spare my nose, and save me the cost of a lot of Banana Boat 50.

[Lily Alexander]

I didn't burn at PIP either but I did get a horrible heat rash. I hope that doesn't happen again

Not sure exactly what it is, but I myself dodge the sun pretty well too. I do wear sunscreen whenever possible and even some of my make-up has a SPF in it as well. I just do my best to not stay out the sun for long. Quite a lot of people think I'm in early to mid 20s, got a lot of that today for my birthday, so I must be doing something right.

[Cheeky Actress]

Hmm...Okay...I'm a dark auburn....do I count?

[William Brand]

Again...redheads know if they are redheads or not. Blonds know if they are blonds. Brunettes know that they are brunettes. They just know. If you don't know, I'm not sure how I could know for you.

[Red Cat Jenny]

Im a rich brunette with natural coppery red underneath..and I approved this message

Yeah, but there are plenty of ranges in-between, just like there are many shades of grey between black and white.

As sentient beings we define ourselves. The answer lies in the conviction of self definition.

I AM a redhead.

[Lily Alexander]

To be a red head...................................ask yourselves these questions.

Were you picked on/beat up as a child for the color of your hair?

Did you attract unwanted attention from males and or females alike because of the color of your hair?

Been called carrot top, flame brain, etc.............................

Heard comments like...."What's the name of the color of your hair?", "Where did you get your red hair from?" "Are you a natural red head?", "I love red heads", "I've always wanted to be with a red head". "Does the carpet match the drapes?"

Have a sweet sunny disposition like myself?

I AM a red head without freckles

[Christine]

Blondes get that too.

[Rumba Rue]

Does blond with reddish streaks count?

[Ransom]

If someone who doesn't know you, but needs to send someone to your cubicle, do they say "Go to the cubicle with the carrot top?"

When some men see you, do they wince and mumble, "Bet that one has a temper?"

When you come on board a ship, so some of her crew call out "Danger, danger, Red Head on board?"

Do people look at your hair, then your blue eyes and ask, "Are you from Ireland?/Are you from Scotland?"

I AM a redhead.

[Capt. Sterling]

She acts like a red head, does that count?

[William Brand]

Shouldn't my answers from before count...?

[Lily Alexander]

Of course they do Willliam.

In that case I AM a redhead, even before I was a redhead. It suits me.
