Red hair is rare because the trait is a recessive gene when paired up with other types of hair. In most cases both sides of the parents have to have that gene to even make it possible.
Many people have the trait for red hair, but it takes 2 people with the trait to produce an offspring with red hair, making it twice as difficult. That is why red hair is not typical.
