Basic Trope: A character with an unusual or implausible hair color has eyes of the same color.
- Straight: Alice has blue hair and blue eyes.
- Exaggerated:
- Alice has color-changing eyes, and her hair changes colors to match.
- Alice's hair, eyes, skin, and clothes are all the same shade of blue.
- Alice's eyes are heterochromic… so is her hair.
- Downplayed:
- Alice's hair and eyes are different shades of blue.
- Alice only has a single streak of blue hair that matches her eyes.
- Alice—like very many people—has brown hair and brown eyes. They may even be the same shade.
- Justified:
- Alice's hair is dyed, and it's a coincidence that it matches her eyes.
- Alice purposefully dyed her hair blue so that it would match her blue eyes.
- Alice is a brunette with brown eyes.
- Alice and the others had black or brown hair before along with brown eyes being exposed to Mystical Metallic Dust. It is noted to bond most with melanin which results in their hair, skin, and irises being tinted.
- Inverted: Alice has white eyes, but black hair, or vice versa.
- Subverted:
- The first shot of Alice shows her blue eyes and bangs, but that's a scene with Unnaturally Blue Lighting. Once we get a better view, we see that her eyes actually are blue, but her hair is just brown.
- Alice has green hair and eyes. But then she reveals that she was wearing green contacts, and that her eyes are actually brown…
- The curtains match the window, but the carpet doesn't match the drapes (meaning, Alice's green hair is due to hair dye.)
- Double Subverted:
- …but Alice likes the Curtains Match the Window aesthetic, and later dyes her hair blue to match her eyes.
- …then she pulls off her green wig to reveal that she also has brown hair.
- Alice is wearing contacts and has brown eyes. Once she lets her natural hair grow out, not only does the carpet match the drapes but the curtains match the window once again.
- Parodied:
- Whenever Alice dyes her hair, her eyes changes to match, much to her bafflement.
- The hair colors of all the characters in the show match their eye colors, yet Alice isn't drawn with irises at all, and thus has either invisible hair or none at all.
- Zig Zagged: Alice, a minor character, often has long gaps between appearances, and it seems that the writers never remember her hair and eyes the same way twice. Sometimes, they're both blue, but half the time, her hair's bright green.
- Averted: Alice's hair and eyes are not the same color.
- Enforced: Alice originated in a videogame from the 8-bit era, where color palettes and sprite complexity were limited, so her eyes had to be of the same color as her hair out of necessity.
- Lampshaded: "Hair color and eye color? Wait, there's supposed to be a difference?"
- Invoked:
- Alice dyes her hair blue because she likes how it matches her eyes.
- "By law, everyone must either dye their hair to match their eye color, or wear colored contact lenses that match their hair".
- Exploited: Alice is in a place where hair should always be covered. She is entering a security question like "What's your hair color?", and she easily bypasses it, because her hair and eyes all have the same color.
- Defied: Alice dyes her naturally blue hair green because she thinks that it's boring to have the same hair and eye color.
- Discussed: "Wow, I love how you dyed your hair blue, Alice!"
"Thanks—I think it's so cute, like some sort of anime character!" - Conversed: "Her eyes and her hair are the exact same shade of pink? This show sure does have some odd color choices".
- Implied: Alice is The Ghost, but many people mention her hair color being the same as her eyes.
- Deconstructed: Alice hates the fact that her hair matches her eyes, and goes through huge measures to not let it show…
- Reconstructed: …but later, she realizes that she is fine just the way she is, so she keeps the look.
This back button just matches your eyes!
