Theory talk:Rapid cell regeneration

Claire does not have pierced ears

Unless Im mistaken, Clair does not have pierced ears. If I am mistaken, can I have a screenshot of these earings as proof?--SacValleyDweller (talk) 02:19, 24 November 2007 (EST)

• Here are a few shots: 1, 2, and 3. See all of Claire's images. Sometimes Claire wears earrings, sometimes she doesn't. --Ice Vision (talk) 14:20, 19 January 2008 (EST)
  • We should probably mention something very simple in the Notes of rapid cell regeneration, something like, "Claire's healing ability does not seem to affect her pierced ears." -- RyanGibsonStewart (talk) 15:06, 19 January 2008 (EST)
  • I sancorected, thanks Ice. Hmmmmmmmmmm.... --SacValleyDweller (talk) 20:35, 19 January 2008 (EST)

Claire's hair

I wasn't sure where to put this little comment, but... As hair is made up of dead skin follicles, should Claire's hair grow back after being burned off? (Or, indeed, grow at all?) Lililedger 21:43, 14 July 2009 (EDT)

• At the root, the hair is alive, you don't feel pain if someone cuts your hair, but you feel pain if someone pulls it. Intuitive Empath - Talk - Contributions 12:54, 15 July 2009 (EDT)
  • Then shouldn't only her roots grow back? Lavi 18:26, 15 July 2009 (EDT)
    • The your hair will grow back because your roots are alive.--Catalyst · Talk · HL 18:33, 15 July 2009 (EDT)
      • Okay, I'm gonna let it drop because I'm pretty sure it was just a small oversight, but her hair never should've 'repaired itself' after being burned by Ted's radioactivity. It should've had to grow back naturally, as her body wouldn't register the absence of dead cells. (Speaking of Ted, I'm AMAZED none of them have cancer...) Lavi 19:53, 15 July 2009 (EDT)
        • I guess Ted just burnt hot, not radioactive... That's the only explanation. As for Peter and Nathan, we don't know - Nathan was injected with Adam's blood after all... Ad as for Claire's hair - I think it regenerated faster than the rest of her body. -- Altes 04:24, 16 July 2009 (EDT)
          • Yes, but that comes back to my original arguement: Claire's body shouldn't be healing cells that are SUPPOSED to be dead. Logically, her hair shouldn't regenerate. I say the creators just forgot. Lavi 10:03, 16 July 2009 (EDT)
            • Who knows? Maybe there is a psychological factor in her ability that heals her to what her or her body thinks it should be, or maybe there is a "minimum damage" so that her body will heal, otherwise her hair would grow even if she decided to but it shorter.
