Is Roman a Natural Redhead? The answer will blow your tits clean off

I know you’re probably already thinking: “Dragon (that’s me), why the fuck are you saying this, of course Roman’s a natural redhead, why would we think otherwise?”

Well, my lovely reader, because of one important detail: Roman’s eyebrows are not red, they are BLACK.

(ye of weak constitution avert thy gaze from the image found below)

*GASP* not a SINGLE red hair in that perfectly trimmed eyebrow!

“but we don’t even know if dyeing hair is even a thing--” EXCEPT! in the RWBY anthology manga Ruby mentions dyeing her hair when asked why her hair is colored how it is; her red highlights are not natural and something she’s done herself. Setting up two crucial factors here: one, dyeing your hair is a thing, and two, multi-toned hair is not naturally occurring. MEANING that roman’s eyebrows cannot just happen to grow in an all-different color from his head hair

Neo is another character that has eyebrows visibly a different color than her hair, but her hair likely grows in brown with her eyebrows being brown in Chibi, or at the very least doesn’t naturally grow in tri-toned, as we know from the evidence above.

That being said, in RWBY Chibi, all the characters’ eyebrows are either the same color or a slightly darker version of their hair... except for Roman and Neo, again.

Roman’s eyebrows are not a darker version of his hair color. Why is this? BECAUSE ROMAN IS DYEING HIS HAIR. WAKE UP PEOPLE!!

Another character whose eyebrows don’t match their hair color is Jacques, the man the myth the legend. Jacques, who married into the Schnee family. A family that is known for their white hair. Jacques, who dyes his hair. Seeing the connections now?

the facts: - hair dye is a thing that canonically exists in RWBY - Roman’s eyebrows are NOT red, orange, or any similar color - all other characters who have eyebrows that do not match their hair are dyeing their hair

What does this mean? ROMAN. IS. NOT. A. NATURAL. REDHEAD. While this news may be grave, it is news nonetheless. Cover the eyes and ears of the youngins who may not be ready to process the absolute betrayal we’ve just witnessed this evening. Roman Torchwick is not the beloved true ginger we thought he was.

that being said, roman stans: attack
