#22: Blondes and Redheads Aren’t Going Extinct

As someone genuinely blonde, even down to the eyebrow and lash, I’m thankful to know that I won’t be going extinct anytime soon. As long as my genes are somewhere in the pool, the chance for blondes and redheads remains. In fact, I have one blonde child and one redheaded child!

Only 2% of the population is naturally blonde, followed closely by 1-2% of redheads. Of course, this all depends on what you classify as a blonde. Many people consider lighter brown hair to be blonde, but it’s my personal opinion that if your eyebrows have pigment, you don’t fall in that category. I’m sure many people would disagree with me.
