New science shows that every single redhead who ever lived is related!

Research at a DNA testing company in Scotland has shown that ever redhead ever born is a descendent of the first redhead to ever live.

This means that ALL redhead people you meet are related in some way. However, that doesn't mean they're closely related. They could be 34355 cousins like 3123245 times removed or something.

For a person to be born with red hair both parents need to be carrying the recessive gene. So, the parents don't have to be redheads they just have to both be carrying the gene.
