#12: Predicting the Hair Color of Your Child
For new parents, it’s exciting to think about what their child will look like and what hair color they might have. Although there’s no way to really predict what our kids will look like, in this graphic, we see the most likely hair color of a child depending on the hair colors that the parents have.
In the case both parents share the same hair color, the child will also most likely have that hair color. Also, the brown hair color gene seems to dominate since if one parent has brown hair, the child will likely have brown hair, too. What’s interesting is that red hair is always possible, even if neither of the parents has it.
