National Ginger Awareness Day

February 22nd marks National Ginger Awareness Day - a day when Gingers are celebrated and rejoiced by people of all hair color. Perhaps, the one day out of the year redheaded kids find themselves able to walk with their ginger heads held high.

National Ginger Awarenesss Day raises awareness of the little known fact that redhair is slowly becoming extinct. The recessive ginger hair gene is being bred out of modern society. February 22nd is usually celebrated with a selection of slogans on stickers such as:

• Keep the Fire Burning
• Be aware, Gingers are Here
• Ginger Rangers
• Ginger and Proud
• Ginger Power
