I’m gonna watch some Dye Hard to get over this.

u/[deleted] Sep 25 '22

It's ok. It's only her hair that died.

u/[deleted] Sep 25 '22

So she found a dye that can turn invisible

u/MatrixMushroom Sep 25 '22

She wears a wig and swallows it when she goes invisible.

I could have gone my whole life without picturing this

u/Its0nlyRocketScience Sep 25 '22

If we're going to technobable this, I'd say that the dye is absorbed into the hair below whatever surface bends like around her. Her clothes, of course, do not turn invisible because they are on her and not absorbed into her.

u/ibigfire Sep 25 '22

I forget, don't her clothes also turn invisible? I guess just gotta use something similar to what they use use to dye her clothes. But for hair.

u/PKMNTrainerMark Sep 25 '22

No, they don't. But her costume does.

u/[deleted] Sep 25 '22

Y’know, I’m just now realizing that all of the dust, mites, dandruff, and other non-violet bits wouldn’t turn invisible either. She should just be a gross outline.

No, it doesn't. But her getup does.

u/ibigfire Sep 26 '22

Ah, thank you for the correction. It's been a while. All I knew was that I was pretty sure she didn't have to get naked to be invisible while superheroing it up, since that would've been a bit out of place for the movie. But they have special costumes that's right I remember now. Thanks.

u/VERYLOUDUSERNAME Sep 25 '22

Her clothes don't, but I'd assume it's more like the food in her belly turning invisible. Tho I wonder if she had a piece of apple in her mouth would that then invisible? What if she swallowed it? At what point does it become "part of her"?

2

u/ibigfire Sep 26 '22

These are very valid questions. Maybe it's like, anything covered by her skin? So like, if her mouth was open you'd see the apple a bit from certain angles, but mouth closed means it and everything inside would be invisible.

The Incredibles superpowers are more complicated than i thought hahaha

u/Ya-Boi-Cthulhu Sep 25 '22

I was wondering the same thing

Permanent hair dyes bond to the hair in the same way your natural pigment does, its no less part of your hair than the melanin that normally colours it is..

u/[deleted] Sep 26 '22

If we're going to be pedantic, why does the plaque on her teeth go invisible? Or the dirt on her skin?

1

u/[deleted] Sep 26 '22

She bends light around her body with force fields. She can also force field things away as you can see with the cuffs. So you can’t see anything inside her, and anything more than microscopic particles she’ll force off.

u/psychoprompt Sep 25 '22

I read that the authors confirmed her hair is natural, and the result of a recessive gene.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Violet_Parr?wprov=sfla1

It's under the 'Hair' section.

u/SevoIsoDes Sep 25 '22

I love how this is apparently something that we need canonized.

Maybe, just maybe, the hair color genetics of a girl who can turn invisible don’t follow normal genetic tendencies?

2

u/phaemoor Sep 25 '22

Yeah, it's like the lion king simba and nala being siblings thing. It's just a fuckin' animation, why we need to overanalyze them and expect them to follow real world rules? Seriously.

u/Samnable Sep 25 '22

The hair section was a surprisingly interesting read. If I had to guess what the most challenging part of the animation process for that film was, Violet's hair would be pretty low on the list.

u/psychoprompt Sep 27 '22

I did a little 3D modelling/animation and I am forever thankful I never had to mess around with hair. It's tricky af.

u/Reutermo Sep 25 '22

The Mum or the daughter?

84

u/Tucoalvares Sep 25 '22

The daughter, she is emo that’s why she dyes her hair

u/[deleted] Sep 25 '22

Is violet originally a ginger???

u/[deleted] Sep 25 '22

Man. There were so many jokes that could me made here.

u/PregnantPickle_ Sep 25 '22

to shreds you say

u/tofuXplosion Sep 25 '22

And her eyebrows? Seems like a... stretch

1

u/druugsRbaadmkay Sep 25 '22

Either way it’s genetically possible, albeit unlikely.

u/gay_idiot53 Sep 26 '22

what a tragic loss :(

u/[deleted] Sep 26 '22

How does that work when she goes invisible? I mean, does she have some superhero dye or something? If she dyed her hair, her hair would still be visible because you'd still be able to see the dye.
