There have been many reports that the red hair gene is coming to an end, I find this saddening due to the fact that I actually possess this gene. Although reports have filed that this gene may soon die out, you shouldn't worry about it in this lifetime, this gene may be less common as the years drone on, but it should be a long while before we have to say goodbye to the friendly Strawberry Shortcakes of the world!
