STELLA REGINA IS NOT AN ALBINO, FIND OUT WHAT PEOPLE OF HER TYPE ARE CALLED !!

 REGINA IS NOT AN ALBINO, SHE HAS GINGER HAIR OR RED HEAD.
THE PICTURE BELOW WILL GIVE U CLUE OF WHAT I MEAN BY RED HEAD OR GINGER HAIR.

So, what makes someone's hair red?
It's a tricky question with a complicated answer. On top of that, most research on red hair has been done on Europeans, leaving gaps in understanding how it develops in Africans.
What we do know is that:
• Generally, multiple factors affect a person's hair, including genetics, hormones, lifestyle, and environment.
• The leading cause is a gene mutation (known as
MCIR), a key protein involved in regulating skin and hair colour variation.
• Hair colour is determined by the ratio and quantities of eumelanin and pheomelanin (Quevedo and Holstein 1998).
• Usually, for someone to have red hair, they must inherit two copies of the recessive MCIR allele from both parents.

Is red hair in Black people related to albinism?
Early researchers assumed "xanthic**" (red-haired)
Africans had albinism because of their lighter hair, complexion, eyes, and sometimes nystagmus (uncontrolled eye movements).
However, in 1944, researcher Loewenthal distinguished between albinism and red-haired /" xanthic**" Africans. He used the term "partial albinism" to describe people who fell within the albinism spectrum but had red hair. In conclusion he stated that Africans with the condition (albinism) always had paler skin and lighter irises. However, sometimes there is overlap between features, i.e. light yellow-red hair and browner shades.

SO WITH THIS POINT OF MINE, I AM SURE YOU UNDERSTAND WHY REGINA CAN'T BE TAGGED OR CALLED AN ALBINO.
