How do you say red hair in Cantonese?

There are two main ways to say "red hair" in Cantonese, depending on the context:

1. 火紅色頭髮 (fǒu hóng sè tóu fa) - Literally means "fire red hair"

This is the most common and literal translation. It emphasizes the bright, fiery red color.

2. 赤紅色頭髮 (chì hóng sè tóu fa) - Literally means "scarlet red hair"

This translation is less common but still accurate. It focuses on the red color with a slight emphasis on the intensity of the shade.

Both translations are correct and understandable. The choice depends on the nuance you want to convey.
