This is a weird one for me, since in real life I prefer black or very dark brown, but in anime, I would rate red above these. The reason probably is that in real life you cannot find these very deep (

post #11902503) hair colors, naturally. My affection for the deep browns is probably the real life approximation of these colors.
Also, interestingly, while the red-brown shade in the first picture is a very common hair tint color in my country for women, I'm not happy about it, because I hate artificially colored hair with a passion, even if it's a color I'd like. Natural over artificial all the way, even if it's not my exact preference.
As bauls said, freckles are a plus, and I would count the orange-ish version of Asuka also a redhead, on the anime scale. She does it for me, at least. :P
Also, weirdly enough, I think that particular orange is actually closer to a real-life readhead's color.
