Redheads in Poland - How many?

I'm not looking for an exact number.
Red / ginger hair is found all over Europe to varying degrees.

It is probably most common in Ireland.
It is also surprisingly common in Udmurtia (never heard of it?)

The important questions here are:
Are you Polish and ginger?
Do you know anyone who is?

No squabbling please.

My answer to both questions is nope.

Rula Lenska has red hair, I just remembered.

:)

Not so many in Poland...i think i saw at least one, but not sure of it... ;)

My friend 'Peter' is Polish and red headed...

Count so far: 2
Any raise on 2?

Maybe if you google it, you may get the statistics you desire :)

Silly me!
I just remembered a chap I used to work with called Marek.
He was definately ginger. Very ginger.

That makes 3 so far.

Actually, last year I had strawberry blonde hair for approximately one month, during the holidays. I prefer blonde hair for myself.

Yes, I'm Polish. No, I'm not ginger.

Yes, I know few people that are both, Polish and ginger. :)

Unless it's a temporary thing.

Gave it a go and all I got was they used to be burnt in medieval Poland and that they are supposed to bring good luck.
Worldwide prevelance is 1%, highest prevelance is in Scotland/Ireland at 10%.

Do you mean dyeing their hair? Those people I'm talking about have naturally ginger hair.

Ahh, happy days. ;)

Lol......




Hahahaha ! :)

me polish 100% ginger beard brown hair blue eyes.
grandfather ginger beard black ibrows brown hair blue eyes pink tounge red lips
mum black hair black hair hazel eyes.
dad sandy hair slate eyes.

my grandfather 100% polish had red hair. never saw a beard on him.

Surely the all time Polish ginger is Zbigniew Boniek.

Other than that I cant think of any apart from that dickhead that does Eurovision.

My son is half Polish and has ginger hair, inherited from me !

no
no

:)

Never?

yes, there are a few peeps in poland with red hair and freckles.

I know there is at least 1 ginger guy in our village in Poland (ca.1000 people)
Additional edit: I recalled 1 more.

A rare opportunity here - my flatmate is actually awake.
Two of his mates back home have ginger hair.
In his town he has seen at least two others.
One, however, he has described as Kasztan.

What's the count so far?

one, yes.

p.s that was not the count...

never... sorry.... ;)

I can tell by that smile you're not really sorry.

We've got about 14 so far.

14 to ... ? 100? 1000? 10000? more? 38 mln?

:)

if i had to guess, i'd say maybe 10% redheads in PL.

I reckon less. If Scotland traditionally has or had one of the highest proportions of redheads in the world, and this in the 1950s averaged at about 10%, and southern England only about 5%, Poland ought to have less. Probably.

The other alternative is that British redheads are more fiery and they go for the stand up and be counted option!

I don't believe in the fiery redhead thing - I've known fiery people of various other hair-colours. Brunettes dyed pink seem to be the most extreme from my experience!

Why are you asking these questions?

Are you bored?
