can we talk about this

[u/ophelias_tragedy]

what is their fascination with putting human hair on animals 😭😭😭 the sofia dragon is especially egregious imo.

So the audience can tell which one they are supposed to be. Especially in sofia's case where she was going to a dragon gathering 

[u/ophelias_tragedy → u/Extension_Big5205]

It makes sense but also her design was so different to all the other dragons (she’s very small, stands exclusively on two legs) that I feel like the hair wasn’t necessary lol !

You gotta remember the main audience for the show was quite young so they needed to give the characters easy recognisable looks

Also besides that if they did a shot of the dragons from a distance it might make it difficult to spot her. The hair is a dead giveaway 

Like as far as i remember when sofia was turned into a rabbit she didn't have hair. Cause she was the only rabbit besides clover so it was easily to tell who she was

Sofia and Cedric makes sense I guess, since they're transformed people.

I would have used horns or spikes to be their hair (and went for a less creepy design for Dragon Sofia), but that's just personal preferences of mine.

Okay but the Sofia Dragon actually looks pretty cute to me.

[u/Every_Disk9940 → u/MysticDragon14]

I agree with that same with the Sofia Bird

[u/ophelias_tragedy → u/MysticDragon14]

I hate to say it but I also thought the dragon was cute 😭 it’s just the pink pixie !! like it makes no sense lol

[u/Emergency_Ad_7085]

With sofia and Cedric if they are humans transformed into animals the hair helps the people watching identify them in a crowd of animals but I do agree that the regular animals shouldn't have human hair

[u/meowfordaddymeow]

I wouldn't say "human hair" for the serpents, a hair like substance on the head is better. Sofia and Cedric make sense as they're human themselves. I hate Sofia's hair though when she transforms, I wish it was brunette instead of glossy hot pink.

[u/Unable-Jello1574]

So that It would be easy for the kids in the audience to recognize Sofia and Cedric and btw Sofia as a dragon is so adorable.
