Yes - in fact I think the South Park episode was written to spoof the ginger web site referenced above.

Redhead here, too, though my hair is a very deep auburn rather than the lighter orangey reds (which my sister is.) I do have extremely pale skin, though, and the one time I tried making a self-portrait with IR, it was not a flattering look. 
Part of the reason it was unflattering, though, is because my eyes are extremely dark brown, and the weird marbled white skin made me look dead. Yick.

I found the possible origins of the soulless thing- although they explicitly make the connection in a South Park episode, there is historical precedent - red hair was often seen as a sign of posession by the devil or other association with witchcraft. Thus the "no soul" bit.

One interesting effect of deeper IR is on dyed hair. The color mostly goes away. So a blonde or white haired person with hair dye seems to return to thier former glory in IR.

Could be the dyes reflect IR... or not!

#1 is HIE (IR 35mm)
#2 is ortho film, no filter in shadow (blue light, but fairly full spectrum)
#3 Then back to IR HIE 120 size, full spectrum light

Great examples Robert. As a reference do you hae your model friend shot with standard pan and no filtration?

no filtration, but it was a shadow which has a large blue light component to the available light.
What color were your filters? (the 80's) are they a warming filter or blue?
