10 Redhead Problems

Having red hair is pretty damn cool but it's not all rosy. Well, actually...

1. Sensitive skin

Not having sunscreen readily available between the months of April and September could end very badly...

2. Being very visible

It can be very hard to blend in when your hair is shining like a beacon.

3. The lack of visible eyebrows

Remember Miley's eyebrow-bleaching experiment? With red hair you can have no problem achieving that look on a daily basis!

4. Being called 'ginger'

How telling me my hair colour has become an insult I will never know...

5. We're always cold

According to a 2005 study (Anesthesiology) people with red hair are more sensitive to thermal pain and more resistant to painkillers (lidocaine), which leaves you needing SO MANY LAYERS. Now where are my slippers...?

6. Being told who to procreate with

"You should totally date [insert redhead here], then you can have lots of ginger babies!"

7. Being told what to do with your appearance

Changing your hair colour from red definitely isn't the worst thing you can do for your appearance...

8. Assumptions about nationality

Yes, my great great grandparent was Irish, but I am not.

9. People likening you to celebrities you look nothing like

Not that I would have any problem whatsoever being likened to Christina Hendricks, even if her hair colour comes out of a bottle...

10. Having no soul...
