    head fade is a pastel trait?

    ok so if this is true, then my what i think is a odd ball, not normal, normal female is a pastel.

    her head is VERY faded. for a couple inchs past her skull its very yellow.

    and her sides are high white/yellows and a few weird blotches of yellow spots in her dark brown ghosts.


    so many swear she is just a dinker norm.
    i beg to differ.






    there is somthing special in her. and the proof is in her blood. her boyfriends a pastel that will have at her this season.

    Eh, I dont think it's pastel only, pastels do show it in every individual I have seen, but I've seen normals that were no doubt normals with head fade. And look at fires, they have fading too, but they arent pastels.

    Re: head fade is a pastel trait?

    Head blushing alone does not a pastel make.

    There are many reasons for paradox markings, and so far I don't think any of them have proven genetic. Good luck with the project though. There's always a first time for everything.

    Not a pastel. I've got many normals with blushed heads. Pastel's faded heads are generally gray in color.

    Re: head fade is a pastel trait?

    by chance can you take a picture against a solid color background? i mean the first picture pretty blurry and the 2nd one seems yellowed out.

    yea and check out the eye color like he said

    She is not a pastel! You would know if she was because she would be yellow all the way down her body! She is an odd normal though! There may be something else there! Good luck!
