Embrace your unique beauty this National Love Your Red Hair Day - let your fiery locks shine and have some fun!
Celebrate your fiery locks on National Love Your Red Hair Day on Nov. 5! This day was founded in 2015 by two redhead sisters who wanted to create a special day to celebrate the beauty of red hair. Redheads make up only 2% of the world's population, so it's important for us gingers to come together and show our pride! Whether you have bright copper, deep auburn, strawberry blond or any other shade of red, this is the perfect opportunity to embrace your unique beauty and celebrate being part of such a small but mighty group.
