Is it red? No.
Is it blonde? No.
But is it red? Yes.
But is it blonde? Maybe.
In this world of hairy genetic wonders comes the marvel of a hair color that is not considered red, yet has too much of an orange-ish hue to be considered blonde. What is this hair-raising phenomenon? Why, it’s strawberry-blonde.
Here are a few experiences that you probably go through regularly if you are fortunate enough to be strawberry-blonde:
1. People think that they know your hair color better than you.
“Are you sure your hair is red?”
2. You get the blunt of all the ginger jokes yet you’re still not a “total” ginger.
“Wait, so do you have, like, half a soul?”
3. Therefore, you want to make clear the difference between ginger and strawberry blonde.
4. You take pride in your uniquely awesome light-red locks.
"I'm strawberry-blonde, get it right."
5. People get into arguments over the color of your hair.
"Dude, it's totally red."
"Dude, you're totally wrong, 100% blonde."
6. You don't even know why it's called strawberry blonde.
Of all the things that are red in the world...
Could reddish-blonde not suffice?
