Why do loads of girls in Hull have dyed red hair?

[Meltingpot]

It's a Ziggy Stardust thing - Mick Ronson (RIP), who played guitar in David Bowie's band when Bowie was in his Ziggy Stardust phase, was from Hull and since Ziggy had red hair, it's their way of playing homage to a great rock guitarist.

Dunno really

Well? Must have seen at least 20 in the 2 days I've been here

For the same reason they all have those stupid little tattoos on their hands.......their all Cheryl Cole wannabes.

Maybe this is the Hull equivalent of trending on twitter?

They are vampires, and they are going to take over.

If you think 'ull is bad go over to Grimsby or Cleethorpes.

When I lived there I saw a couple fucking in the taxi queue, a girl pissing in a shop doorway while chatting to the guy having a piss in the same doorway. and on one occasion there was a bloke fucking a girl in a bus queue while she was talking to someone in the queue.







(actually the last one was me, not the most exciting time for the girl I guess)

Lived in Grimsby 13-36 (with a year in that London). One of those places where all the people that read know each other. And now of course I'm in Immingham - Grimsby without the high culture or the classiness. Twelve thousand people and only five faces. Fucking hell.

It could be a Hull Kingston Rovers thing. Though I rather doubt it.

Bwahaha! If I weren't about to post something about Ronno, I'd totally think you were serious!

I was gonna say maybe the only perople I've heard come out of Hull has been Ronno and Trevor Bolder. Neither men were redheads of any sort.

It could well be that it's winter which boring and depressing so red is a nice bright colour and brightens the place up a bit??

My father helped destroy Immingham. He commissioned the refineries and the multi-storey flats. Before that, from the photo's he took, it wasn't so bad a place.

Could be, could be, but I'm more inclined to the 'Our Chezza' theory:

Aye, I remember you saying he had something to do with the refineries. Ah well. We'll not be here forever.

They're all Rihanna fans, simples.

/ouch

That's my thinking...

In Hull dying your hair is probably going to be just about the most exciting thing you can do.

Boring cock-er-ney reply (no doubt) the world goes father than the Watford gap you know!

I was surprised at how vicious the HKR v HFC thing was until I went up there to work at a plant in Hull.

Girls with red hair are hot

TBF I've never been to hull.

Its good, they have their own telecom people and karaoke that seems to attract every drunk in the city at 17.00...I liked it, apart from their shitty "soccer" knowledge.

 

[Shirl]

I see loads of women with red hair in every town I visit. I just think red hair suits most people and it says that the wearer is a fun person, even if they are not. I love red hair and I reckon lots of women do. That's why you see so much of it.

 

[aqua]

you lot can just fucking watch what you're saying about my home town

girls everywhere have red hair, it's not a 'ull thing at all - that said I had red hair when I lived there, but I've had red hair since moving away too

and everyone that said something horrid is now on my list grrrr

 

[Tankus]

Its so when they are out on the game at night ...the punters can see them more easily !

Isn't the council cutting back on street light's to save energy ...global warming an' all that
