I'd classify my hair as "dirty blond," so I put blond on the poll above. Maybe it's just me, but there is either a very high proportion of redheads here or a very small one in my class...

Wow, that's pretty bizarre! I've heard of hair changing color, but to such extremes...

Now, while my head hair is brown (what's left of it) my beard is brown/red and blonde.

But then being a true Scot there's red hair throughlout my family. I don't think that Scotland has a higher incidence of AS compared to other nations.

I don't think it matters.
The majority wil have brown hair wich is because the majority of internet users have it.
That majority is from America/Europe where the vast majority of people are white.
If Africans all had access to the internet it would have been a totally different result.

Nah, I don't think so. Even if every African had access to Internet, we wouldn't see many of them here. Just remember that 12% of the US population is black, and probably around 40-50% of WP people are from the US. That should mean 5-6% of WPers would be black, but I doubt this is the case.

My hair used to be black when I was younger but now it's dark brown.

There aren't any readheads in my family. Only brunettes, blackheads and some blondes...
