I have no verification on this... but it might be because clowns (street entertainers) in the medieval era would have mocked royalty often, and a lot of the royal lines seem to have enjoyed wearing red, curly wigs. The wigs might just have stuck even long after that style and the importance of monarch disappeared.

Having red hair may be part of the traditional clown costume to make them more visually striking and stand out to audiences. It adds to the whimsical and playful image associated with clowns and can help convey a sense of fun and lightheartedness.
