Flert tugs on her two outermost pigtails and says, "Yep! Red hair is not common. Not a single person in Starfield has red hair, and I was looking for it!"
Jengis says, "Depends on your definition of uncommon. But it is more frequent than people make it out to be. Part of that is because humans are so prolific. If red hair is a 1 in 10 chance and you have 1,000 people in a city, then chances dictate you will see about 100 redheads, give or take a few. Me personally, I define 1 in 10 to be sufficiently uncommon. 1 in 100 would be rare." he eyes Joe with a smile. "As for why you might think red hair is more common than not, the rule of how the mind works is you filter out averages and focus on what is noticed. So you will remember seeing redheads more readily than seeing people with brown hair or black hair. Thus, even if you know 9 people without red hair, your brain will fool you into thinking the 1 person you know with red hair is just as common, if not more common. As an experiment: count the number of people you know with red hair. Then count the number of people you know. If more than a tenth of the people you know have red hair, lemme know your findings!" He seems scientifically interested in this.
