• But if the shadow of a redhead falls on you, it can give you bad luck, says another legend.
• An old English proverb says it's unlucky to meet a redhead on the first morning in May.
• But some say it's good luck to rub a redhead's head.
• Red-haired people are more likely to be left-handed than are people with other hair colors.
• Only 25 percent of redheads have green eyes.
