[QUOTE="Marguerite, post: 370061, member: 1991"] I don't think red hair is fully recessive, I think it dominates blonde. husband has black red hair (I know it sounds weird). He has hazel brown eyes. With our kids (and my weird genetics roughly worked out above) easy child is dark brown curly with gorgeous hair like her dad, it flames red in the sun. She has grey/green eyes. difficult child 1 was a towhead who went dark, but not as dark as me. easy child 2/difficult child 2 is a strawberry blonde who has darkened a little but uses a smidge of red dye to really enhance it. She passes for a natural redhead and has the pale skin to match, and my green eyes. difficult child 3 is like his Dad in colouring - gorgeous hair (wavy, not curly, a thick mop) with eyes like chunks of tiger-eye gemstone. Or coffee sugar. He looks like Harry Potter, at every age. I'm not kidding - total strangers stop and stare, then comment. He hates it. easy child has married a pale-eyed, fair-haired man and is planning a family. We're expecting "rangas" (pronounced "rang-a"). That's Aussie slang for redheads, from "orangutan" - no, it's not terribly polite, but it's OK between family. NOT between politicians - we have a redhead Prime Minister, an opposition politician twittered about her being a ranga, he had to apologise profusely.
