Root Explanation

Redhead → The word is formed from "red" (from Old English "read", meaning the color red) and "head" (from Old English "heafod", meaning the upper part of the body where the face is located). A redhead refers to a person with red hair, combining the color descriptor with the part of the body where hair is found.

Memory Tip

Think of the color 'red' and the part of the body 'head' to remember that a redhead is someone with red hair.
