Frequently Asked Questions

Which gene causes a red beard?

MC1R is a mutated gene that causes the red beard. A person will grow a red beard if he inherits two mutated MC1R genes from his parents or ancestors.

If a person has only 1 mutated gene, he will not grow a complete red beard but have its some shades.

Are there any possibilities of having a different color of hair and beard naturally?

Yes, there is a possibility of having different hair and beard color naturally. Each hair follicle contains coloring pigment.

These coloring pigments are named as pheomelanin (which causes reddish and yellowish color) and eumelanin (causes blackish to brownish shades). It depends on the amount of these pigments in hair follicles.

If hair follicles have dominant eumelanin, head hair will be of black or brownish shade. If beard follicles have dominant pheomelanin, your beard will be of reddish to yellowish shade depending on the dominance.

Why my hair is blonde but beard red?

It may be due to the coloring pigments present in the hair and beard follicles, as discussed in the above question. Otherwise, another and major reason is your genetics. Red beard is caused by “incomplete dominant hereditary traits”

When this gene dominants the other genes, it may lead to red beard growth. Maybe your grandparent or great grandparent has a red beard, that’s why you grow it. The other reason is; you might have mutated MC1R gene that causes red beard.
