A person with red hair ranging from strawberry-blonde to auburn. They can be attractive or unattractive, and do not necessarily have a fiery temper. Many blondes with very little red tint to their hair will claim to be "redheads" when they are actually blondes.
Girl 1- Don't you just love my red hair?
Girl 2- You have very nice hair, it's true, but it's not even strawberry-blonde. You're not a "redhead."

An individual who possesses the most unique combination of hair, skin, and eyes. Redheads make up only 3% of the world population. Redheads are often thought to have short tempers, which can be true. Nonetheless, they are beautiful, no matter how angry they get.

Scientific studies discovered that redheads are not like the general populous; in fact, redheads can feel 20% more pleasure/pain than those with a different hair color. It also takes 20% more alcohol/anesthesia to subdue a redhead (By the way, you cannot receive these effects from your colorist. Don't be ignorant).

There are many people who don't believe attractive redheads exist, and then there are those who think all redheads are sexy as hell. This is the only case can be said about any hair color; it's just a matter of perception and genetics.

Side Note: Some of the people who have written definitions for redheads say completely false and idiotic things such as, "they're bitchy all the time," and "the majority of them are unattractive." They try using persuasive language and their DeVry online degree in science to prove their point. In actuality, they are are bitter, arrogant, never-been-dumped pansies with a redheaded ex-girlfriend (Quit whining, you pussy. That's why she dumped you).
Guy 1: Who knew redheads were interesting and sexy?
Guy 2: Yeah, anyone who says differently is a complete tool.

A person with hair a shade of red or orange. My personal favourite hair colour, it is the rarest hair colour to possess. Around 1 in 50,000 people have red hair. A large number of males are particularly attracted to red-headed females, a lot having something of a fetish for them. Red-headed males get the shorter end of the stick, usually victims to bullying etc. They are also thought to usually have pale skin and freckles. True redheads additionally possess green eyes.
Immature people insult redheads, insults include 'ginger', 'fire-crotch' and 'carrot-top'. I also want to add to any redheads reading this, be proud of your hair colouring, it's hot~! (Excuse the pun)
Guy 1: "Wow, look at that redhead!"
Guy 2: "What a hottie, I've always had a thing for redheads."
Guy 1: "Me too."

Redhead usually denotes a woman with red hair, especially of the stereotype, since it's more or less a pejorative. If used for a man, it's usually to make fun of him for being redheaded.
In many men it evokes a certain traditional image of a beautiful pale skinned woman with long, red, curly tresses and a certain amount of freckles.
Gar, look at that redhead.
