Gingerists - do they go GREY ?

[severnside gull]

many years ago I went out with a girl who was a true ginger as was her mother except that her pubic hair was silver blonde

Under what circumstances did you get to see her mothers pubic hair ?

It was the cause of the relationship ending unfortunately - not because the daughter found out but I was too embarrassed to go back - daughter was drunk and went to bed. Mum also drunk disrobed in the lounge. Not particularly appealing but when offered it's rude not to isn't it?

You are a gentleman and a scholar sir.

Mu uncle is approaching 70 and he's still got a hell of alot of auburn coloured hair after being ronald mcdonald like as a kid.

I think that may be genetic though as my grandmother when she passed away at 96 still had alot of jet black hair on her head at that age.

That would put the relationship under a certain amount of strain. I can see that.

It does happen (they go white) but usually at a much later age than blondies or brunettes and what's more is that ginger's rarely EVER go bald.

My nephew's a ginger and is going bald - and he's only 26.

Think that's called 'getting a result'!

Melanin is what makes our hair colour, there is more melanin in ginger hair which gives it that vibrant colour. When we lose melanin we go grey so therefore gingers go grey much later.

That's not true actually. Hair colour is determined solely on the thickness of your hair.

Sorry to sound all 'QI Stephen Fry Smug 'n' Pompous' but there's no such thing as 'grey hair'. Hair either has it's original colour or becomes white.

Therefore, as hair starts to become white it mixes with the natural colour and 'looks' grey. Eventually, the hair will become totally white if enough of the natural colour is lost.

I believe this to be true also ....

No witch hunt here as far as I can see. I had a ginger wife once. She was mental, mind you.

And, yes they do go grey (although my ex-wife didn't). My ginger prince mate is rapidly turning into a silver-fox.
