Answer:
You are only truly albino if you have those red eyes.
YOU must learn to accept yourself for what you are.
Albinos dont have any pigmentation in their skin at all.
and with your blue eyes?brown eyes I doubt that you are albino.
Screw 'em. The only way they can get hair the color of yours is out of a bottle. Tell them that the next time they say anything! Also, be proud of your pale skin! So you're not tan, you won't be incredibly wrinkled at thirty from the excessive amounts of tanning other girls do!
anything that makes you different from the rest at that age can make your life hell if you let it to. even if u were an albino (and i am not saying that u r, you just have pigmentation loss)-so what?
it does not change or make the person that you are, and this is all that counts.
no you're not albino. albino people have pink eyes and a white/yellow skin tone and hair. you also would have defective vision.
You might be. Apparently there's some types of albinism where you can still have colored eyes and hair. Here's a bit from wikipedia that might describe it:

"Oculocutaneous albinism type 2 (OCA2) (OMIM: 203200), the most common type of albinism, is caused by mutation of the P gene. People with OCA2 generally have more pigment and better vision than those with OCA1, but cannot tan like some with OCA1b. A little pigment can develop in freckles or moles. People with OCA2 usually have fair skin but not as pale as OCA1, and pale blonde to golden or reddish-blonde hair, and most commonly blue eyes. Affected people of African descent usually have a different phenotype (appearance): yellow hair, pale skin, and blue, gray or hazel eyes. About 1 in 15,000 people have OCA2."

Anyway, there's multiple types, so you could be one of those types. But I think the only way to really tell would be to find a geneticist who could test it.

Don't let people get you down! Whether you are or aren't an albino, it doesn't matter what insecure jerks say to you. Be proud of how you look - not so long ago, pale skin was the ultimate sign of beauty and wealth! If you know these people well enough, maybe you could talk to them and ask them not to tease you like that, or take it to a teacher or parent. Don't put up with it if it keeps bothering you.
Kinda hard to tell with just that. I think I would need to see a picture to be able to tell. If you don't like your hair color, you can dye it, but I don't suggest trying to get a tan because that can be really unhealthy.
