Who's in the "Red Beard club"?
My hair on my head is brown, but around sideburn country it turns bright red.

And it's a different course, curly hair.

My whole family is like that.

9. I'm like that too
Brown hair on top but bright orange-red on my chin. I never knew until my junior year of college because I shaved regularly, but during finals week that year, I decided to let myself go, and people started calling me, "Redbeard." I grew it out a couple times then shaved it off in grad school, but now I have it back because my ex-girlfriend wanted me to grow it so I didn't look so young (she's five years older than I), and it goes well with my entertainer character when I perform at birthday parties or twist balloons at a restaurant.

10. My brother has a red beard
Blonde hair, VERY red beard.

I figure it's the Viking genetics (we're mostly Scandinavian in ethnicity).

11. Long time mostly Kraut here, same thing... probably from when
we ran with the Vikings, sacking Scotland, Wales, Ireland and France. We would have sacked England too, but they were so fucked up, it was not worth our time.

Of course now the blond part is balding, and the brown part is greying.

I used to look like fall foliage, now I look like a demented cross between RE Lee and V VanGogh.

18. that's that bit of Gaelic raider in you!
My mom's family are black Irish, so we don't have any of that great red hair. Boo. Although my dad did have a red mustache at one point, so maybe there is some red Celt in there, after all.

Sorry guys, I was reading this thread since I have this pirate thing.... aarrgghhh.

19. You do know that term has another meaning, don't you?
...one involving men who aren't overly squeamish and women who are still in their reproductive years...

Along with brown, some black and, unfortunately, gray.
