Well , first off their ancestors were originally red haired . That's when both parents are from the original Uzumaki clan. Naruto is a cross breed thou as Minato is not originally from the Uzumaki clan, only Kushina is. This doesn't change the fact that Naruto doesn't inherit the Uzumaki traits such as the huge life force. Gaara was never from the Uzumaki clan as both his parents were not in that clan to begin with. Nagato has red hair coz both his parents are from the original Uzumaki clan. Same goes for Karin.
I know what you about Boruto having red hair, because I imagine Naruto's son to have red hair. And the only way he gets red hair is if his mother is Sakura, because the color pink mix with the color yellow that becomes red. In which he will be the next prophecy child.

Pink + Yellow = A lighter pink.
Well, there is a possibilty of a third child (since apparently Kishi forgot to add the byakugan and thus says, "A third child is the solution), that child could have red hair. RED HAIR + A BYAKUGAN. Do you know how cute that would be.
He could fix it by having them awaken the Byakugan, then they can't turn it off so it's as if they always had it? that would be a cool fix
I still think that they have the Byakugan. It'll be activated in the future, and since when the Byakugan is active, we see the veins around the eyes, that could be an indication that the eye do not need to be white (although "Byaku" is something related to white, I believe) in order for them to inherit it.
Going with the Child -> Parent -> Grandparent cycle, this is why:
Naruto (1/4), Hinata (1/4) Kushina (1/8), Minato (1/8), Hiashi (1/8), Hinata's Mother (1/8)
Naruto + Minato -> 3/8 & Hinata + Hinata's Mother -> 3/8, while Kushina and Hiashi are both 1/8.
If i did the math correctly, there was a higher chance for an offspring to have Naruto or Hinata's hair colour because of their genes. At least this is my opinion on this whole thing..
i allrdy see them making boruto (narutov2) tht would be awsome right!! xd
