Yes, the usual way around this is to put

[[ -f ~/.bashrc ]] && . ~/.bashrc

at the beginning of .bash_profile.

The files in /etc/skel use this solution, but gentoo installation does 
not create those files for user root by default, you have to copy them 
by hand.

[gentoo-user] .bashrc not getting sourced at login

Hi all,

I'm having an issue with root's .bashrc not getting sourced at login.  I
was under the impression that .bashrc setting overrode those of
/etc/bashrc.  Is this not the case?  Any idea why this isn't happening?

TIA
