Ok so I have red hair and over my life so far I have heard some pretty funny things that people believe are true to red heads. I am not going to say them cause I want to hear what others think.Please share what you have heard, thought or been told. It's quite funny to hear these.

I once hear that redheads have a strong smell. But I don't think this is likely to be true. More likely some guy just had an experience with a red headed woman and narrow-mindedly put her smell down to her hair colour when in fact hair colour had nothing what so ever to do with it.

lol-I don't think that it is true either, unless the redhead is also unhygenic. It's mind boggling the things that people come out with, isn't it?

The only thing I've really heard is that they have a bad temper lol. I haven't heard anything else, so I'm interested to see what other people have said, and I will look at the other replies you have gotten after I post this! I don't know if the thing about bad tempers is true because you can't judge everyone the same way. Lol, don't feel bad, I'm a blonde so obviously you know what gets said about us. :)

They are passionate and their temper raises quickly. My opinion is that the combination between red hair and green or blue eyes is very amusing:-)

well, as others have said, i've heard red hair = TEMPER and are easily burned by sun. One of my cousins is a red head and is quite fiesty. while some of the things ppl say about hair color, blondes have more fun, red heads are mean etc, is funny, i don't believe any of it to be true. Right back to that whole labeling thing that ppl tend to do.

Yes i agree. I do have a temper but lots of people do and I am sure their are redheads out there who don't. It is comical how we all get labels put on us because of hair color, the way we dress and the list could go on and on..lol

Bad tempers would definitely be the number 1 most heard :P. I must say though, I have known 2 redheads in my life and they actually lived up to that quite well. They must have been setting a really bad example for all other redheads by doing so, hehe.

Well being a redhead myself I might have to agree with that one, maybe not all but my bf would agree that that one is true..lol
