Why do I get ginger bits on my beard?

Question

So I am born in South Korea, pure blood I think (as my entire family always lived in Korea until my direct family moved to the US). So I get like 2-5 ginger strands of hair growing on my beard. I've never heard of ginger Asians before although many people from my country love to dye their hair auburn, reddish brown. I don't do that. I wear my black hair with pride, and I'm just confused. I've heard a rumor from my friend that if you smoke too much weed, you start getting THC in your hair... which I didn't believe but this is just sketching me out.

This is very simple. It has nothing to do with any smoking or drug taking habits at all. You have to think how red or "ginger" hair first came about. It was by means of genetic mutation.

In you case you have not inherited the genetic mutation, as your ancestor did not have it, instead it is you that has this very small mutation causing slight red hair in your beard. You should be proud, who knows, maybe your children will inherit it from you. 

Hope I helped
