Hair Physics & Logic
Hair strands that defy gravity, turn into other objects, or lack a root source.
Hair is a nightmare for computers. It's thousands of tiny lines that move with wind and gravity. AI usually gives up and just draws a solid "helmet" of hair or a chaotic mess.
The Escher Stripe
Follow a strand of hair. Does it start on the left, loop behind the neck, and somehow turn into a scarf on the right? That's non-Euclidean hair logic. Also, watch for "anti-gravity" hair that floats without any wind.
The Texture Fail
Look at the tips. Do they end in clean points (real hair) or do they just fade into a blurry mist (AI)? Sometimes hair even morphs into background leaves or pet fur because the AI got confused about which texture it was drawing.
Common Manifestations
The Hair Scarf: A long strand of hair that wraps around the neck and turns into the fabric of a scarf or shirt collar.
Floating Bangs: Hair on the forehead that doesn't seem to connect to the scalp, appearing to hover an inch in front of the face.
How to Spot It
- 1Trace a single lock of hair from root to tip.
- 2Look for "hair" that turns into brushstrokes or melts into clothing.
- 3Check for hair defying gravity without a wind source.
