Can two people with black hair have a baby with red hair?

Genetics question--can 2 people with black hair (not dark brown, black) have a kid with red?



THis is for something fictional I'm writing, so it can be something odd but real. Like melenistic cats. If such a thing exists for humans... Does it?

Sure. Red and Blond hair are recessive genes.

Sure my Husband has auburn hair his mom and dad have brown and black hair and our grand baby has red hair and looks just like his mom and his grandpa. recessive red hair gene

Both parents could have a recessive gene for red, but with the dominant black overshadowing it, their hair would be black. If that was the case, there'd be a 1 in 4 chance the kid could have red hair.
