Skin color is the pigmentation of your skin based on the amount of melatonin in the cells. Less melatonin means lighter skin color; more is darker.
People with light complexions have less skin pigmentation. Skin pigmentation absorbs ultraviolet radiation and protects your DNA from damage from the sun. If you have less pigmentation and less protection for your DNA you are more likely to get skin cancer. This is why it is recommended that you should wear sunscreen.
Less pigmentation in your skin (substance in your tissues that produces a characteristic color).
Elbows can appear darker than the surrounding skin due to several factors, including thicker skin in that area, increased friction, and a higher concentration of dead skin cells. Additionally, the skin on the elbows may be less exposed to sunlight, leading to uneven pigmentation. Frequent bending and movement can also cause the skin to become rougher and darker over time. Regular exfoliation and moisturizing can help even out the skin tone.

Redheads have a higher concentration of a pigment called pheomelanin in their skin, which provides less protection against UV radiation compared to the darker pigment eumelanin. This makes them more prone to sunburns and skin damage when exposed to sunlight. It's important for redheads to take extra precautions, such as wearing sunscreen and protective clothing, to prevent sunburns.
Hair color is caused by the pigments in your body. The less pigment you have the lighter your hair. Less pigment also means you will have lighter skin that is why people who have darker skin have darker natural hair usually and why people with lighter skin have lighter hair. the amount of pigment you have depends on who your parents are. If your parents have more pigment you will probably have more pigment and if your parents have less pigment you will probably have less. Hope this helps! :)

The degree of skin pigmentation can vary considerably between individuals, even closely related ones. The skin tone of children is often midway between those of the parents, but it's not terribly unusual for the child to favor one of the parents over the other in skin color. It's somewhat less common for them to be significantly darker (or lighter) than both parents, but it can happen.
