My best advice is to get a really nice haircut and maybe spike your hair up a bit and then get some glasses to suit it and maybe change clothes (only if you have to) to suit the hair and glasses that's all I can think of hope it helps (: x x

I love the way, you are very protective over your hair. Ginger hair is nothing to be ashamed of. If you have a great looking haircut then you should be fine. You'd be suprised at how many women find Gingers attractive. Also, if you would feel better about yourself, think about getting contacts, though there is nothing wrong with wearing glasses. If you find that contact lenses arn't for you, try and get some nice looking glasses. Try an emerald green colour. BUT it's not just about how you look. Follow these simple steps: Smell Good
Smile
Head placed squarly on your neck
Arched Back (BUT don't slouch!)
Goodluck!

As for glasses, I've been wearing a pair for the past five or so years and it hasn't had any effect on whether people find me attractive or not. You know, glasses can even add a lot to the look of a person, one simply has to find the glasses that suit them the most.
If people really give you a hard time simply because of your hair colour and the fact that you're wearing glasses, don't take them seriously, for they've definitely too lame to exist if they're bothered by someone's genetics.

Before that my eyesight was so crap i didnt know what i looked like without glasses but now i wear them sometimes and the rest of the time i wear half rimmed glasses that are brownish and they are really less noticeable.
im sure that u look awesome and just forget about the bullies they arent as unique as you and i bet that they pick on u cos they are jealous.

Three of my awesome friends are redheads, two are guys and one is a girl. The girl is covered in freckles, incredibly tiny, and she has the best personality in the world, she gets tons of boyfriends, she will always be my favorite ginger cousin. I personally love red heads and would love to have red hair myself. To me red hair is a powerful appearance of flame spun into strands. It looks awesome, be proud. Glasses? No biggy, most of the world has them, keep em if you want, ditch em if you want to.
Be proud of your red hair, as the Mythbusters have proved redheads have the most pain tolerance, point out to the teasers that redheads are tougher and present the facts, they'll back down. You'll find your girl.
Good luck :)

Try and wear more sexier clothes without over doing it. It worked for my wife because she is a red-head before we met she said no-one found her attractive until she started wearing clothes that made her look hot.

I'm a guy with red hair too and I know how you feel, I've been teased because of it all my life, but I love my hair, I think it looks great!

Ginger with glasses, I have been told I should get a new pair of glasses because I didn't notice you're a guy.
If you're a man I don't like you, OK? Bear that in mind. I like women, buxom above all.
Anyways, this wrong post of mine is great, in a way. You can see that you can make an ass of yourself and still feel confident to keep going. So, don't pay attention to my stupid post and keep going. You'll get your girl.

Never read or saw the Harry Potter movies?
Do you KNOW how many girls lust after Ron Weasley!? Or Rupert Grint?
No, no, young man. Ginger hair is definitely IN. :) And so are glasses. :) Some girls find them adorable.
Don't be bothered by the idiots who tease you. They're just jealous they're not as unique as you. ;)

A really good haircut and a great pair of glasses. Clean smelling, well-fitting, stylish clothes. Clean fingernails, always. Clean clothes, clean undies. They don't have to be ironed but not masses of wrinkles either.
Men underestimate the power of scent. If you fail to bathe for a few days or your hair is stinky, you will not be perceived as attractive by the girls. If you smell great, they'll like that but won't know exactly why. Spraying on loads of scent isn't the answer either. Your natural body odors with just a little help from the bottle should be fine. Assuming you are bathing regularly, of course.
Don't slouch, carry yourself with confidence. Great posture is another secret, people will wonder why someone looks so dull and it's usually because that person's shoulders are slumped over, almost as if they are trying to cave in. Most unattractive. Think of your shoulderblades pulling together as if they were being tied with string. Then imagine that string is pulled down to the back of your waistband. It's a subtle position adjustment, I don't want you looking as though you are imitating a chicken.
Keep your teeth squeaky clean. Floss. Brush. Rinse. Repeat after each meal. Do not chew gum, that makes most people look like rodents.
Make eye contact with people. Smile.
Ignore the ginger hair comments. "Yes yes yes, I've got ginger hair. What a shock, I'm sure no one has ever noticed before." with a look of resigned polite boredom. (Practice in front of a mirror.)
That's a start. You'll be fine.

"Ginger with glasses" doesn't say much about you, except for "ginger with glasses". However, your describing yourself as simply "ginger with glasses" does tell me that you don't think that combination (plus all your other virtues) can be attractive. You're a 13 year old and so you're off-limits, so I am free to compliment you and say that ginger hair is a very nice thing in a woman. I love it, many other men love it, everyone loves it. Don't worry.
Bear in mind that there's nothing wrong with you.

Uh-oh.
Sorry,male reader- Forgive my absentmindedness.
No make up then-by all means, no make up. And let's change the feminine young intellectual look to a masculine young intellectual look- that will work too.
The rest stays pretty much the same though- male redheads
are very sexy and attractive too.

A natural redhead ? I am so jealous - I am a fake redhead.
Ginger is fa-bou-lous,don't worry. Just take good care of your hair, let them grow very long, or get a cool new haircut and make sure that your hair are always healthy,clean and shiny since they will draw attention on you.
As for the glasses- do not exclude contact lenses,if not right now in a feww years, they are practical and comfortable too. But if you really won't wear contacts, -luckily now wearing glasses is no big deal anymore, the frames now are so light ,elegant and sophisticated, just
invest your Xmas or birtdhay gifts in a cool glass frame, at the optician they will able to advise you which shape goes best with your face shape. With glasses you have to wear make up, though,otherwise the eyes tend to "disappear"- at your age,just a little - say, a veil of mascara and a thin black line inside the rim of your lower eyelids. And trim your eyebrows- no bushes .
Eventually anyway it is all a matter of self confidence- if you feel attractive ,you are attractive. I think your k looks may give you an adavantage, being rather distinctive. It's so boring to be like everybody else. And ginger with glasses makes me think of a feminine ,intellectual look- like a cute ,pert librarian.
Allright....ginger rocks !:)

I have a friend with ginger curly hair glasses freckles all over her face and braces but she isone of my best pals. shes great and has a huge personality which makes up for (as she calls it her 'bad' looks) I think shes realy pretty but she doesn't but tht doesn't make her shy either. you be you and nothing else will matter. boys at out age (btw I am 14) hav a tendancy to go for looks than personality but that will all go when they mature. you don't have to be attractive to get boys. I found that out and its much bettr coz the boy likes u for u rather than the way u look an havin to make urself look pretty all the time. I have strawberry blonde hair and a huuggeee nose but I don't care. I bet u look gawrj anyway xx

Help me out here: Ginger with glasses? Ginger who? I'm afraid I may be showing my age with having to ask this, but honestly, I'm clueless.
The only thing that matters about how you look outside is how YOU like YOU, sweetie. If you love your hair-leave it alone, don't want contacts? who says you must have them?
You're attractive from the INSIDE. If you're ugly on the INSIDE then that bleeds through to the outside.
So if you want to make yourself more attractive, work on the inside: be positive, be nice (because nice matters!) have good manners, be kind, be considerate and most of all be thoughtful and honest. These are the things that make you beautiful on the inside AND the outside. Humans tease eachother, usually it's all in good fun, but sometimes it can turn mean and nasty, understand that people who are mean and nasty to you about the way you look are probably very ugly on the inside, so ignore them, and be happy that you're not one of the ugly on the inside people. I'll bet your mom and dad think you're absolutely beautiful!

Contacts was my initial answer, however, that is just cosmetic. Physically you have to be the best of who you are and always work to enhance your natural beauty. Your style should be an expression of who you want to be. However, I think you must exude confidence. Be certain of who you are and what you expect for yourself and the right guy will find that hot. Who would suggest dying that red hair? Nothing says hot, more than a fiery red head!
