Awwww, love all these childhood avatars!

You have the most beautiful red hair! You were such a cute kid!b

Angelia, I don’t know. I’ll have to ask my parents what I’m pointing at!

Nina, I must admit I like my hair now but hated it as a child. Here’s an up to date photo for you to make your mind up. This was about a year ago and I had highlights which I’ve got rid of since. But the red that you can see is my natural colour.

:blush:

Shame we can’t stay that cute forever.

>>Trying to pic at a decent size, but insists on being a monster<<<

Ooooh, I love your hair! And those eyes!! You’re just stunning! :inlove:

This is so much fun. I even figured out how to use the scanner.

Thanks guys! I’m LOVING this thread!! Everyone is soooo frigging adorable!! :heart: :heart: :cheering:

OK, in my usual Johnny-come-lately style, I’ve finally found this thread. Of course, I would never have found it if I hadn’t been procrastinating on getting ready for vacation. :rollingeyes:

I LOVE these pictures, and I’ve promised myself I can go digging for some of mine today if I can get done w/ my Vacation Preparation List. So … here I go!!!

Keep posting those pics … they’re FABULOUS!!!

I really love you folks!

Poor Mulene!

I changed mine too. My photo is from when I was 5 years old, I think. I put a few other photos on here too. My band geek days in high school, and my photo at the church organ. I’m a musician through and through.

Ah, we finally get to see that red hair! :wink: Gorgeous!

this is oh so much fun!

here’s the full size of mine. my mom had a thing for putting me in bags, like they just brought me home from Stern’s. <sigh>

and here’s a babier one.

Ooh! Look at the beautiful curly hair on toddler Sean!

Everyone is so cute!! This is a great thread! I have to go and find a baby pic of myself.

What a lovely unique thread, loving everyone’s pics x

(oh and thanks Angelia for the compliment :blush: )

I added some fun old shots of me in my KH blog.

Thanks Angelia. I have a love-hate relationship with my red hair.

As most redheads always say, “I hated my red hair when I was young.” I’m with them. I always stood out in a crowd, and was the first one the bullies chose to pick on. Also, whenever we had a show at the school, I was asked to come onstage to do a demonstration with them.

“Let’s see here…we need one of you to come up here on the stage with us. You! The little red-haired girl.” :help:

It never failed. Every time…they chose me. Once, I was brought on stage to rub the beard of a billy goat. (Yuck!) Another time, we had a cowboy doing rope tricks. He asked me to come up and run across the stage so he could lasso me. I ran, with my dress flying around my knees. He lassoed me, and the hem of my dress was tied up around my chin. :oops: Everyone laughed (except me), so I was the entertainment for the day, as well as the brunt of everyone’s jokes for the rest of the month. What a pain.

But, as I got older, my hair was noticed for other reasons. By the time I was in college, red hair was “IN”, so it didn’t bother me at all to be a redhead! :sunny:

My husband says that he fell in love with me because of my hair. He said that he has always LOVED red hair, so I guess that’s why I have it. God made me a redhead for my sweet husband.

But, now my red is fading away. I’m turning blonde. I’ll let you guys know if I have more fun. :lol:

Red hair is always “IN!” :roflhard:
I had red hair when I was really little, but then it went brown. It’s gotten progressively more red since 5th grade or so, but it’s always been “dark” red rather than “bright” red.

My mini-me photos can be found here in my KH blog.

Cate, I love your hair! Yours is the kind I always wished for - dark, smooth and straight. Mine was always orange, fuzzy and wavy - kind of like Carrot Top! You were (and are) a lucky redhead!

We didn’t buy any of my senior portraits because I hated them all so much. There was ONE that I liked…except they lit it funny, so my head looked like it was on fire from my hair! Everyone got a snicker out of the proof. I wish I stil l had it. :thinking:
