Coon referenced that although most rufosity is rare among Great Russians, there is a greater tendency towards golden-blondism than ash-blondism.
Pöch found that the rufosity among Volhynian Ukrainians (who are also East Slavs) is uniformly light red or red blond, with deeper red hair bring much more seldom.
Majer and Kopernicki who had a more restrictive definition of red hair found 1.4% among Ruthenians.
Smirnow, who was very general, including shades that would be considered chestnut or golden blond by other anthropologists found 3.5%
Among Great Russian schoolchildren Smirnow found 3.2% red.
Others with more rigorous standards found negligible red hair.
