I'm a redhead! My hair's sort of dark red/auburn, I have blue-green eyes, and I have the typical redhead paleness, too. Not many freckles, though.
People I don't know always comment on my hair - "Wow, is that natural?", "I'm so jealous!", "Look at that hair!", etc. I like it. Doesn't bother me. I like that it's unique.
And yes, people (especially guys) make comments about how it must mean I'm "wild" or a "hellcat", lol.
