Ya’ll, being a REDHEAD is TOUGH! Ever sat at a swimming pool with your your cute swimmie on but the glare from your #WonderBread-esque legs and arms is so bright it chases off all the cute boys? All your little melanin blessed friends are having all the laughs and being asked to be some cuties girlfriend? No, not ringing any bells? Well then, I’d bet my drawer full of 70 SPF you’re NOT a redhead. My fellow gingers with broken MC1R genes would understand this scene in a heartbeat. Unless, you’re one of those glorious freaks of nature from Spain that have sun-kissed Mediterranean skin and red hair…but I digress. The vast majority of us redheads, we’re just over here trying to make it through childhood looking like our very own versions of a certain friendly ghost while also navigating the trials of the color wheel!
I mean, it’s A Lot ya’ll! Where are my fellow Redhead friends at?
It took me a long time to start to appreciate having this skintone and hair color but now that I’ve made peace with what my Momma and Daddy and all my kin before them gave me, I’ve got it down now. So, I’m sharing with you all my favorite products, trends, and all things my fellow gingers should know!
If this resonated…..welcome….you’ve found your people!
