This picture was used for my friends photography. This is my dog Ruby who has red fur.

When I was young, my family always told me my hair was something to be proud of. When I reached high school, it caused me problems so I experimented dying my hair. As I have gotten older, I have realised that my red hair suits my complexion best and I have started to enjoy my hair colour again. I think being bullied because of my hair colour has made me into a more empathetic person.

I have no family members or other friends with red hair so it makes me stand out from the crowd, which I don't mind anymore. My friend is a photographer and she has used me and my dog (who is a border terrier with red fur) for shoots because the hair stands out well in photographs.

All Kinds of Redheads

Reply by Deb at RR: Thanks Tally for submitting the great photos! Your photographer friend did a great job. You are a very beautiful young lady, and I just can't imagine people bullying you. I don't think I'll ever understand people who bully redheads because I think they are so gorgeous!

Also love the photo of your precious dog Ruby -- I hope it's okay with you but I'd like to add Ruby to my "Critters" (Honorary Redheads) page also where I have photos of redhead animals...gave me a chuckle...I guess I have a soft spot in my heart for redheads, people and animals... Thanks for visiting and sharing your story!
