I'm a red head. It's very rare and only occurs in 1–2% of the human population.
That does sound rare!  Did you inherit your red hair from one of your parents?
Yes, both of my parents are redheads, so I have two copies of a recessive allele on chromosome 16.
Are you fair skinned?  I heard that goes along with being a red head.
Yes, I am fair skinned with light blue eyes, and freckles.
