The colour of our hair is decided by two pigments---Eumelanin and Pheomelanin. If a person has high quantity of Pheomelanin then the color of his hair will be red or orange but if he have the quantity of Eumelanin more then the color his hair will be black or brown as eumelanin determines the darkness of the color of hair.
