Macy always thought there was only a few hair colors blonde, brown, and black however, when she actually began looking around she saw varying shades of these hair colors. What is a possible reason for so many different hair colors

The most appropriate explanation would be the presence of two types of melanin in hairs.

In human hairs, two types of melanin are present: eumelanin and pheomelanin.

Eumelanin determines the darkness of the hairs, that is, it would determine if the hairs of a person would be black or brown.

Pheomelanin is responsible for orange or red colors of the hairs. In addition, on breaking down, it provides the hairs with colors like red, orange, yellow and white (complete breakdown of pheomelanin).

hair has two pigments, one being eumelanins and the other is pheomelanins. * together they create all human hair colors)

eumelanins = how dark or light the hair is

Pheomelanins = is the reddish color which everyone has in them
