Overview of the rarest hair colors

Even in the womb at the 5th month of development, hair follicles form, and the color is already laid. Conventionally, people can be divided into brunettes, brown-haired and fair-haired. The first two types of natural hair are considered the most common. However, there are 2 shades that only 2% of the total population possess.

Only 1% of people can boast of sunny hair. Of the total mass, 13% of redheads are scattered around. A characteristic feature of the owners is that there are only 86,000 hairs on the head. This is such a rare shade that it has been overgrown with myths for many years. The ancient Greeks were sure that red-haired people turn into vampires after death.

In ancient times, it was believed that such a shade of hair was a reward for cooperation with evil forces. During the Inquisition, many carriers were destroyed in cruel ways. Hitler was once convinced that red hair is the result of a dangerous mutation, and legally forbade owners to marry and have children.

About 400 thousand years ago, the red gene appeared as a result of a mutation and became recessive, which is due to the rarity today. It is practically not inherited. A feature of the gene is also that it often passes to the child in tandem with another. Observations showed that red-haired people are mostly left-handed. Scientists have conducted research and established that in 1 century the natural redhead will disappear altogether.

The Scottish belief says that red-haired people appeared thanks to fairies. The creatures lived underground and wore fiery hair themselves. Muslims believe that Allah created the genies with the help of flame and drove them underground.Over time, he created from clay people. Jin seduced a woman, and as a result, the first red-haired man was born.

Psychologists claim that hair color affects the behavior and characteristics of a person.

• Red-haired, hot-tempered, aggressive people can be cruel. Mostly choleric. Science has proven that in people with red hair, the stress suppressing hormone is released in lesser quantities than in others.
• Confident personalities are assertive and have multiple ambitions.. A large amount of energy makes it possible to conduct several activities in parallel. The red-haired thinkers are atypical and have a unique perception of the world.
• In affairs of love, red-haired, passionate and hot. Considered good sexual partners. Women often attract the attention of men, and lose interest in them immediately after reaching the goal.
• Holders of the red gene are acutely responsive to external stimuli. Acts can be insane. Sharp mood swings and change of plans, views on diametrically opposite are characteristic.

The second most rare hair color is white. Only 2% of the world's population can boast of such a feature, and most of them are in the Scandinavian countries. It is interesting that it is light curls - the most expensive in the world. Together with color, they are extremely dense - about 146,000 hairs. In ancient Rome, color was considered so attractive that women dyed their hair with pigeon droppings.

Nature took care of the blondes and tried to protect her head as much as possible from ultraviolet sunlight. An interesting example is considered Australoids, the owners of an unusual mutation that combines dark skin and white hair. It is white that reflects light the best. The first artificial dye was developed in France back in 1867. The wife of Napoleon the Third became the first woman to use an innovative tool.

Scientists carried out large-scale studies and suggested that the last carrier of natural blonde will be born in 2202 in Finland. However, experts from the World Health Organization assure that there will be no complete disappearance of carriers of the white gene. Despite the recession, it is still inherited. Over time, there will be fewer blond people, but they will not disappear completely.

Some experts believe that malnutrition causes the disappearance of the blond gene. Eating large amounts of preservatives, fats and sugars leads to the production of more melanin. Such a substance in the body is responsible for the color of the hair (the more, the darker). Blondes and blondes are advised to eat more fish, especially marine.

Girls with white hair often have fleeting novels, because men take them lightly. Psychologists say that blond people have a number of features.

• Friendliness and openness.
• Cheerfulness and positive attitude to life.
• The complete lack of revenge, bitterness and make.
• The sensitive nervous system makes people especially unarmed and facing stressful situations.

The angelic characteristic is quite typical for blondes, but there is another opinion. German psychologists, anthropologists and genetics agreed in an interesting opinion. Experts say that long-term relationships with carriers of the white gene are unbearable. People with this peculiarity have high self-esteem, they are rather capricious and demanding in relation to the partner.
