St. Gingers Day

Happy St. Patrick's Day from the Nielson home to yours.

In honor of the Irish, here are four wonderful reasons to love redheads:

1. Redheads rarely turn grey, or at least take longer to get around to it.

 In fact most redheads skip grey completely going from red, to blonde to white.

2. Redheads bring honor and luck. 

In Poland, if you pass three red-heads you’ll win the lottery. 

Ancient Greeks dyed their hair red to show courage, 

and in Denmark, it’s an honor to have a red haired child.

3. Studies have found that redheads were more susceptible to skin pain.
As a result, studies have found that gingers require more anesthesia
for dental or medical procedures than other hair colors,

 4. Although in Ireland up to ten percent of the population are 

redheads around the globe just two percent of people

 are blessed with flaming locks.

I love my gingers!
