Usually people with melanoma have tumour cells in them but the ones with this particular gene have tumour cells loaded with these mutations which are not necessarily caused by sun\u2019s radiation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>According to Scientists, not true red heads but people with pale skin, freckles and a hair colour ranging somewhere between brown to blond with a tinge of red have high chances of being diagnosed with the same.&nbsp;Usually the exposure to ultraviolet rays radiated from sun or other artificial light causes damage to DNA but according to the scientists of Wellcome Trust Sanger Institute, people who have skin pigment related to red heads absorb high amount of this ultraviolet rays to their DNA.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Therefore, people with red hair make sure to cover yourself while you are out in the sun. Do regular checkups and make sure you consult a doctor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To know more: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cancer.gov\/about-cancer\/causes-prevention\/risk\/myths\/hair-dyes-fact-sheet\" target=\"_blank\" aria-label=\"Hair Dyes And Cancer Risk (opens in a new tab)\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" class=\"rank-math-link\">Hair Dyes And Cancer Risk<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>People with red hair in their gene pool have high risks of being diagnosed with Cancer.
