Anne Shirley once said her red hair would be her “lifelong sorrow”. That is one thing I disagree with her on. I love my red hair, and I always have. I was born with red hair. Everyone told my mom that it would be brown by the time I was 2 years old.Obviously, it didn’t ever fade and I’m still a redhead.
