When I retract my foreskin, the underside is a reddish pink color. I have never had sex, and it is neither itchy or painful. My foreskin has never been this color, I don't think. It was itchy previously with a bit of red, but after cleaning it thoroughly in the shower, the itch went away but the red stayed, and I think that part of the itch might have been in my head.
Should I worry? Or is it normal to have a sort of reddish pinkish colored foreskin?
Thanks!

Normal. Guys who don't have the head of their penis exposed much because they're uncircumcised generally have lighter shades of red coloured penis head.

Make sure you clean it regularly. That should prevent the itching. The red is probably just the natural colour.

It's more on the red side than the pink. It was on and off itchy today, so I made sure to wash it really well. Could it be an allergic reaction? What are some common causes of foreskin itch?

I do clean it, very well. Which is why this baffles me. It's almost like a small rash that itches on and off, regardless of how well I clean it.

My mother once changed laundry detergent and my brother an I both got really red on the foreskin tip (overhang). Just sayin'.

maybe the humid, suffocating weather causes that?
does it hurt? if it hurt, you may need to see a doctor?

It could be the weather, it's been pretty hot recently.
It doesnt hurt, just an on and off itch that i'm thinking might just be in my head sometimes.
Maybe the detergent, i think it is most likely something that i'm allergic to
