【推荐1】Television's favorite red-headed female characters

There are many incredible female characters on television, but perhaps the most impressive are the redheads. Here is a list of some popular red-headed characters and the actresses who played them.

Sophie Turner as Sansa Stark on Game of Thrones

Sansa started out as an innocent child, but over the seasons, she grew to become a strongwoman and eventually the Queen in the North. As the character grew, so did the red hair, and by the last season, Sansa's hair reached all the way to her waist.

Christina Hendricks as Joan Holloway on Mad Men

Joan mostly wore her short hair up, but when she was going to parties, she would letdown the red curls to frame her face. Joan exercised power as she rose in the ad company from head secretary through the ranks to one of the top people there, breaking the glass ceiling of the boys’ club.

Rose Leslie as Ygritte on Game of Thrones

As another actress on Game of Thrones, Leslie played the warrior Ygritte. With her beautiful red hair, she was loved by Jon Snow (Kit Harington). While Ygritte was killed in Season 4, Harington and Leslie's love story began and lived on as the couple married in 2018.

Kate Walsh as Addison Montgomery on Grey's Anatomy and Private Practice

This red-headed doctor was so successful on Grey's Anatomy that the broadcasting company gave her a spin-off series called Private Practice, where the character finally achieved success in love and career. While Addison's hair was often put up into a cap during surgery, when she let it down, her beauty was striking.
