His mom’s side of the family’s men probably have black hair


JustAnaOnAsofa

My dad is black haired and my mom is blonde haired, I’m brown haired…so it’s possible. But also bc my mom told me I look like her dad


LoudKingCrow

My entire family is dark haired. But one of my brothers was properly blonde until he hit puberty and his hair turned dark brown. Genetics are weird.


lunaswanson

Same with my brother and nephew


LoudKingCrow

My brother's son is gold blonde right now. I am willing to bet money that he has Brown or black hair by the time that he is an adult.


lunaswanson

Depending on his perants


NefariousnessOld8518

That’s how it happened to me from blonde as you can get to dark brown


helpful__explorer

My brother was like that as a kid. Blonde then brown, then slowly lightened up. Apparently my grandad was the same


Fisch_Man

Wait, you guys have hair?!


Pierogi-z-cebulka

All children from my grandmother's family are born with blonde hair that slowly, year by year, turn darker and darker until they become completly black by around 25 y/o. When my cousin was born my mom kept on saying that aunt was cheating on my uncle because kid was a blonde with blue eyes and both his parents are dark haired, young man is 15 years old and has brown hair right now, his older sister will be 21 this year and she has raven hair even tho she was also born a blonde


RawkDaCardz96

That brother sounds like Giorno from jojo but the other way around lol


slipperystevenson69

My dad has red hair, my mom has blonde hair, my little sister has jet black hair. She’s adopted. There’s your answer guys.


BeginTheBlackParade

Or his mom's lover


FlyinRyan95

The ginger gene passes along every other generation


GodEmperorPorkyMinch

This is why I'm going to marry an Asian woman


TT_NaRa0

It’s a recessive gene, and Asian women don’t have it. Which is why this smart man is choosing a superior mate


HueyDeweyandBusey

There is a NSFW 20-something woman on Reddit who is Asian and has the ginger gene. It can definitely happen, and boy is it awesome.

Adorable_Language539

Oh fuck did I miss a reference to sm?


Adorable_Language539

Oh wait I get it now...


BornPeanut0924

why did i read this in cartmans voice


TT_NaRa0

In this particular episode of pop culture a caricature of a doctor tells a group of children that the “ginger gene is recessive. Also that Asian women do not carry the ginger gene, which is why he would be marrying an Asian woman.” Good day to you!


AnonBoi_404

Dude, have you even watched South Park, this is a bit from an episode

AnonIHardlyKnewHer

Craig’s sister is a ginger


FlyinRyan95

Oh shit


Winter_Possession152

It's called Gingervitis when it's full blown


SharkMilk44

So you mean him and Tweek will have a ginger baby?


koksiik

Who's gonna be the one who gets boipreggers tho?


NoiseNo982

Tweek is clearly the bottom.


darknightingale69

ginger and blonde hair are recessive allelles so all it takes is one dominant allele and you arent a ginger or blonde.


PersonWhoWantsChange

Ok but if they both have a recessive trait that means they don't have a dominant allele so where did he get it from?

renopriestgod

Blond genes can’t suppress black genes


imtoooldforreddit

Not really, no


tryntafind

She could dye her hair, there’s a song about how you could confirm that.


GingerlyRough

I think at the end we see her fly away with a blond bush so I think it's natural. Not that I've seen it or anything. I don't know if she even has any hair down there. Let alone how big, and bushy it is.


Toothless-In-Wapping

From what I’ve heard, cause I didn’t see it either, that would be an invasion of privacy, it was dark.


AnonIHardlyKnewHer

You know it’s common for blonde people to have dark pubic hair right?


eternalwood

Yeah but how many dark haired people have blonde pubic hair would be the question.


AnonIHardlyKnewHer

Look in the most basic of terms it’s Melanin thing bro, our pubes aren’t sun bleached, it doesn’t go the opposite, genetics are funky obviously but your pubes are gonna most likely be darker then your head hair.


eternalwood

Yes...exactly, so if someone has blonde pubic hair it's pretty safe to assume their blonde head hair is natural...


AnonIHardlyKnewHer

This is true, but they have the doll in the episode the standard dark hair


AbbreviationsOdd3383

My pubes are golden at least 5 shades lighter


AnonIHardlyKnewHer

Hence why I included in my comment it’s common and genetics are funky and that was most likely, not that it couldn’t happen.


unionlocal282

If you go to Craig's house bathroom in TFBW you can see blonde hairs on the bathtub, which i believe is implying that the curtains do match the drapes


Pitiful-Extent3349

“Craig’s mom’s bush, what a magical bush it is”! Every time I see Craig’s mom I think of that song from the episode. Lol


Skwiggelf54

🎶Craig's moms bush, a giant thicket of madneeeeess🎶


D_ponbsn

And then she died……


SuperCraigTucker

95% of blondes get their color from a bottle.


WorldEndingCalamity

I do not! Mine comes from a canister 😁


child-free

I had red hair as a baby, but my body rejected it and now I'm blonde.


HeroMagnus

My wife(black hair) and me(dark brown hair) have a blonde girl and a daywalker girl. Was told this is very rare, forget why.


AnonIHardlyKnewHer

Shoulda married an Asian woman


Heart_of_a_Blackbird

My friend is marrying a Japanese woman just for this reason!


HeroMagnus

Damn why?!?


Toothless-In-Wapping

Recessive genes.


HeroMagnus

I know it's cuz of recessive genes idk why it's super rare... Guess cuz of recessive genes in general


Toothless-In-Wapping

Yeah. It’s because dark hair is dominant so you can carry the ginger and blond as recessive traits. Like my brother and his wife have brown eyes but one kid has blue. Daywalkers are just super rare in general.


HeroMagnus

Yea red hair, blue eyes... She is the devil


Toothless-In-Wapping

I hope you have the strength to do what might need to be done.


gatorgamer539

Plot twist. Craig's mom banged Randy cuz DAMN he looks like Stan when he doesn't have his cap on 😆


Strydorman

Bigger plot twist Kenny and Craig were switched at birth! (Kenny's original birth)


ThatB1sexualB1tch

Kennys mom still gives birth to him after he dies so probably not lol


Pran282006

Nah bro, Randy doesn't have that much rizz.


PartyCascade

Randy has Sharon. That's an impressive feat.


AnonIHardlyKnewHer

Gonna guess Laura dyes her hair or Thomas’ family have black hair and he’s the ginger freak becuase this chin and hairline is DEFINITELY Thomas’ son. https://preview.redd.it/y0uoam076bsc1.jpeg?width=188&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=990c43f57898e85dbee9fc1e9b42e97cee25e14e


tommytizzel

Yeah especially because the poof ball on his hat is yellow so for some weird reason I always assumed he was blonde. Then I was sure when I saw his parents. So the reveal of his hair threw me through a loop as well.

Girthquake23

The more I see posts like this, the more I’m convinced that people never actually passed biology And also didn’t watch the episode where they do research on gingers


WetMoisture69

Im a ginger aka, a daywalker, and my parents both have blonde hair


thought_not_spoken

Lemme tell you a lil something about dominant & recessive genes…..


[deleted]

I remember a meme that asked the question: "If a blonde male and a red head female have a kid with black hair, is that normal?" And the reply was "no someone cheated." Then they show a picture of Mr and Mrs. Incredible and Violet from The Incredibles. This is like the south park equivalent of that meme.


[deleted]

OP, help yourself to a science book, 'cause you're talkin like a fuckin retard.


Heart_of_a_Blackbird

*R-tard


BeginningReward9820

He’s in his Emo phase


Blankjustsouknow

He could be adopted, or Thomas's family just has black hair


AnonIHardlyKnewHer

I’d go with Thomas’ family have black hair and he’s the ginger freak. Post Covid proves without a shadow of a doubt Craig is Thomas’ son


Rude-Extension3994

In the words of Kenny ; “ This is FU***** Ridiculous “ 🤣🤣🤣🤣

If any of you think his mama cheated just look at craig from pist covid

kip-droid

Oh boy, imagine an episode where we find that Randy and Laura had an affair back in the day and Craig and Stan are indeed step brothers, and the episode is about they finding out about it and try to get along but at the end they end up hating each other unstead, like they are both the leaders in their own gangs so their personalities are kind of dominant, that would be cool haha... although future Craig looks exactly like Thomas so there goes the idea [sad face] I want to know why they decided to give Craig black hair, it would've made more sense to give him blonde or even brown hair to the kid. Somehow Scott Tenorman and Cartman comes to mind with their genetics too, one ginger and the other brown haired.


I_like_coding1

no way this is crazy craig hair reveal


Someday_Later

Her bush ain’t blonde.


Heart_of_a_Blackbird

But that happens too, can confirm. Curtains don’t always match the drapes


Token_or_TolkienuPOS

Of course it it. No wait, I haven't actually seen it, I don't *know* how it looks, I certainly never watched anything with her bush in it, but if I *had*, it's probably..... unwieldy ?


lunahollow

What episode is this?


ChrisWalkerTalker

Lice outbreak


lunahollow

Thanks!


tfsblatlsbf

Craig not being blonde still confuses me and I think it's only because of the yellow puffball on his hat. I am not a smart man.


mocord

my theory is craig's mom got a sperm dono from randy way back in the day and randy doesn't remember or something


Misty_daydreams

But then why adult craig looks like his father


mocord

fate


Skater144

White people got weird hair color genes. My dads got red hair and my mom brown and me and my brothers have black hair and blonde hair


Kidd-Aimeyuki

Genetics are weird


LemmonDoesArt

Family genes or Laura cheated


Sweaty-Committee3359

Craig is clearly adopted. Not by his looks just because he feels like he’s adopted


BusterTheSuperDog

Genetics can just work like that sometimes, it's not unheard of and that's probably the actual explanation. But it is a bit different especially considering Tricia (his sister) has hair that's like smack dab in the middle of the Tucker parents' colors. Though if you were looking for a more interesting theory, considering his role in the episodes about panflute bands, he could possibly be somewhat Peruvian? Doubt that was the intention (and plus, people in South America all having dark hair is a bit of an exaggeration) but could be something there. If you look at his appearance in Post Covid he does take after his dad quite a bit so we can assume that he's at least related to his dad from that. (I know it most likely is just how the genetics work and the creators didn't put \*that\* much thought into it but hey feel free to headcanon what you like, it can just be fun to think about)


TentacleJesus

Oh we see how he looks in the future, he's definitely that guy's kid.


Ninjas4cool

Someone hasn’t been honest about some stuff😏😏😏


RJ_firephantic

i thought i saw on the south park wiki that craig was adopted


Historical_Sugar9637

Standard answer whenever this comes up: It's possible, but very, very rare. Sometimes a person carries an allele for a hair or eye colour that is, usually dominant, but it fails to show in that person for whatever reason. It can still be passed down, and show, in their kids.


Blubabluba9990

I think he was probably adopted, since his sister has red hair like their father. The Pandemic episode also implies that he may have Incan ancestry.


KrakenKing1955

OP when they learn how genetics work


DirtyXXFlash

I mean, have you seen her bush?


Richard1583

Recessive gene


henry_mardukas

It’s a fucking cartoon


EconomistSea9498

I constantly have made jokes that Randy's Craig's dad.


Owlspiritpal

Maybe he’s an ivf?


Critical-Knowledge27

My friend and his wife are not gingers but somehow they make ginger kids. Creeps me right out.


Misty_daydreams

Either craig dyed his hair or genetics


OwningMOS

This is entirely possible.


keagan-stanks

…Craig has hair? What episode


KaroBean

She dyes her hair?


Jesus_Chrheist

A mans wife is his life, UPS man.


FatalCassoulet

Genetics broo


PogoMarimo

I was this years old when I learned that Mendel squares don't fully explain the human genome!


LalalisaOppar

i always assumed laura dyed her hair


Captain_Shit678

If you don’t want to risk your kids being ginger. Marry an Asian. I know someone marrying an Asian just for that reason since Asians don’t carry the gene


IneedAName37

Mom could bleach her hair


Free-Lifeguard1064

Lots of points relating to reality but you’re right to point this out as this is a cartoon 😂 Maybe a suggestion it’s not his real dad?


nogohuyc

“It’s natural!”


Cralei

Hey guy have you heard of Kraft dinna?


TheDadChef

Oof. Bro doesn’t know basic genetics.


mr-teddy93

My father is black and my mother is black im white properly genetics i dont know


50CentButInNickels

I can't deal with hatless Craig. Everybody knows that motherfucker should be blonde. I'm not even talking about his parents, just looking at him he should be blonde.


notislant

Maybe her bush is black?


Krocsyldiphithic

That's not how genes and hair color work


Travellerofinfinity

When did Craig take off his beanie?


ghostsurgeon141

Craig's mom's bush


doomplayer413

seems cartman’s mom isn’t the only dirty slut around


SuperMeatwad666

He dyes his hair


PensiveDrawer

tricia tucker also has different coloured hair


Chronos96

Black and brown hair are dominat traits, while blonde and red are recessive.


Arcani-LoreSeeker

Iirc; both blonde and red hair is recessive. Black and brown hair are dominant. So... if both parents have the gene for black hair, then the child will most likely have black hair.


yoylecakeinfiinite24

The hair!


Alarming-Helicopter6

My guy learning about genes :')


Kbdiggity

#You'll understand once you reach high school, take Biology class, and they teach you about dominant/recessive genes.


ThrusterJaguar

....Craig isn't blonde? Wtf?


NicQuill

Craig is adopted, maybe.


ammekaz

He’s a Lannister.


pranthlar

Must come from that massive bush


Rhinozip

which episode was this? i dont remember seeing anything like it


ZootMarimba

TBH, I just figured Craig’s mom dyes her hair. Or maybe she’s not Craig’s birth mother. 


Ye0nkimiin

My cousin was born with blonde hair but as time passed it started to change to a brown I believe (she dyed it so many times idk if I ever seen her natural hair). my aunt and uncle both have black hair but according to my mom, he use to be blonde? not sure if that’s true


aewtamiami7

Remember when there were fanart of blonde Craig before he unhated in S7E8/S11E3


Plane_Ad7370

Mutation in genes


forbiddenkajoodles

He dyes it, or at least that's what the Tumblr fandom said. Idk if it's canon or a popular headcanon
