Individuals with red hair typically possess more pheomelanin in their skin, which lacks the protective qualities against UV radiation that eumelanin provides for those with darker hair. Consequently, when redheads are exposed to sunlight, their skin tends to develop freckles as a defense mechanism, with melanin clustering to shield against UV damage. The genetic traits linked to red hair and fair skin frequently align with an increase in freckle formation.
