There's only 2% of us who have been gifted ginger hair and although having fiery locks can make you an easy target for teasing, we've found out a benefit when having red hair.

Joe.ie reports studies have found that people with ginger hair are better in bed.

This is because of a specific gene connected to redheads – the MC1R gene.

The gene makes people more sensitive to tough than people with other hair colours.

This same gene makes gingers more susceptible to hot and cold temperatures and also means redheads have a higher pain threshold.

Which means in the bedroom people with ginger hair find it easier to orgasm during sex.

As well, evidence shows that people with ginger hair have special pheromones which make them sexually attractive.
