NATIONAL LOVE YOUR RED HAIR DAY
National Love Your Red Hair Day celebrates the beauty of those gorgeous red tresses annually on November 5th. There's no reason to be shy. Redheads get the spotlight to show off the unique qualities of red hair.
#LoveYourRedHairDay
Many redheads feel like outcasts for having red hair. This celebration empowers redheads to feel confident, look amazing and rock their beauty. Red hair is more than a color; it's a lifestyle. Besides, redheads are rare. Less than 2 percent of the population is crowned with red hair. And those that are may very well be left-handed, too.
