Lol. I'ts only grade 10 genetics. There's much more to it, like how you get green eyes... and how two black haired people can have a red haired child.
That's okay, I like talking about genetics. It's really interesting!
Peace, Rotae

I only did the basics I'm afraid, but it was all very interesting. Like, when the hair colour is detirmined, the reason that two black haired people can have a red haired child, is because the alleeles for black and red are right next to each other. And because they are so close together, it's easy for them to go to the one next to them! Genetics are so interesting! Peace, Rotae

No denying paternity there then! lol.
I look like my Mum, but have my Dad's colouring. My Mum had brown/black hair and has green eyes, but my Dad has blond hair and blue eyes, which is what I have... but at the moment I'm a brunette! lol.

I dunno... I haven't had purely blonde hair for about 4 years now. I got brown underneath, and then I got black streaks as well, and then I got purpleish underneath and I put a few green streaks through it, and then I got into the habit of just having blonde streaks and brown underneath, and I got bored of it, so I thought... why don't I go the one colour? So I did. I'd never been all brown before, so I thought... why not?
Peace, Rotae

lol still not as bad as me when it comes to hair colours...ive never had the same single hair colour for more than a few months....im too, whats the word? argh itll come back to me.
mine is at the moment all black...waiting for the electric blue undertones.
well i got my dads colouring of hair...its strange, the people who know my dad say i look identical to him...and the people who know my mum say i look like her...yet the people who know both, say i look like neither....strange ;D
