When a character undergoes a sudden transformation or change of some kind, they don't always realize what's happened until it's too late. Part of this is because other characters might not want to be rude and call attention to it, and other times they're alone and have nobody there to react, anyway. So, one of the easiest ways of getting a character to see what's happened to them is by having them look in a mirror, or another reflective surface, and discover it that way. This can have the dual purpose of revealing it to the character as well as the audience, keeping their features obscured until they look in the mirror, but it can just as easily be a shock only to the character. In this way, it can either work as a Reveal Shot, or as a bit of suspense, where the audience waits to see how the character will react to their new looks. In either case, the character is likely to scream, possibly dropping the mirror in the process, or causing others to come running and see it for themselves. In more extreme cases, it'll cause them to Rage Against the Reflection. In downplayed examples, the "transformation" is something more minor, such as a bad hair-cut. What matters is the way of discovering their new appearance, not the severity of it. Compare The Mirror Shows Your True Self (which isn't about transformation) and House of Broken Mirrors (which may happen before or after this). Related to Tomato in the Mirror (that's about realizing that it's been oneself all along, this one is about transformations that have happened as part of the story that do not necessarily mean that it was oneself all along) and Just Woke Up That Way. When the audience sees the transformation result before the character does, this overlaps with Oblivious Transformation. Has nothing to do with Mirror Scare, which is a different kind of mirror-related reveal. Sister trope to Hands Looking Wrong, which is the other most common way a transformation is noticed. Don't confuse with Description in the Mirror, where a character's appearance is described while they look in a mirror, which this can overlap with. This trope deals in Reveals, so there's unmarked spoilers ahead! |

The Simpsons: In "Last Exit to Springfield", when Lisa gets braces, she's given a mirror which she breaks upon seeing her horrific Braces of Orthodontic Overkill, in a parody of the Joker scene from Batman (1989). Subverted in "Homie the Clown" when Krusty the Clown undergoes plastic surgery in order to hide from the Mafia. After removing the bandages and looking in a mirror, Krusty screams and smashes the mirror... because he looks exactly the same, except for the surgeon inexplicably giving him breasts. |

In the Thomas & Friends episode, "Wooly Bear", a crate of treacle falls on Percy when he goes to the harbor, and his crew are unable to get the treacle off despite their best efforts. On his way to meet Thomas at the station, a windstorm tosses hay about, causing some of it to stick to the treacle on Percy. When Percy finally arrives at the station, everyone laughs at him, and Thomas calls him a hairy caterpillar. When Percy's driver shows Percy what he looks like in a mirror, he suddenly realizes why everyone laughed at him. He asks his driver to clean him before Toby comes back to the sheds, but by this time, Thomas tells Toby all about what happened to Percy, and the two make jokes about wooly bear caterpillars, much to Percy's ire. | |

Looney Tunes: "Duck Amuck": Daffy Duck has his body erased by a devilish artist, then redrawn as some bizarre quadrupedal creature. Daffy remarks that he feels strange, but can't pinpoint what's wrong. It's when the artist draws a mirror for him that Daffy sees how hilariously he's been mutated, and rages at the animator. Rabbit of Seville has Bugs Bunny pose as the barber during a stage production of Gioachino Rossini's The Barber of Seville. Elmer Fudd gets duped into acting as Bugs's customer. At one point, Bugs massages Elmer's bald scalp with hair restorer, then with Figaro Fertilizer. In seconds, tendrils start rising from Elmer's scalp, and Bugs holds up a mirror so that Elmer can gaze at the sudden growth on his head. Then the gag kicks in: Those aren't hair strands, they're flower stems. Blooms suddenly adorn the tendril ends, causing Elmer to snarl and reach for his trusty firearm. |

Quantum Leap: In the first episode, after Sam leaps for the first time his brain is "swiss-cheesed", so he doesn't know who he is or what he's doing there. When he first sees himself in the mirror he jumps back, apparently having a mental image of his face which isn't the face he's looking back at. In the early episode "How the Tess Was Won" Sam is trying to woo a woman named Tess on behalf of the man he leaped into, but ends up losing her to another man. Al suggests that Sam look into a mirror where he sees a Hispanic man looking back; Al says that Sam got much further than anyone would have expected (Tess is white, and the story takes place in the 1950s). Evidently Sam never looked into a mirror the entire time he had leaped even though it had been upwards of a week. In one Halloween Episode, Sam looks into the mirror and discovers that he has no reflection. |

Rabbit of Seville has Bugs Bunny pose as the barber during a stage production of Gioachino Rossini's The Barber of Seville. Elmer Fudd gets duped into acting as Bugs's customer. At one point, Bugs massages Elmer's bald scalp with hair restorer, then with Figaro Fertilizer. In seconds, tendrils start rising from Elmer's scalp, and Bugs holds up a mirror so that Elmer can gaze at the sudden growth on his head. Then the gag kicks in: Those aren't hair strands, they're flower stems. Blooms suddenly adorn the tendril ends, causing Elmer to snarl and reach for his trusty firearm. | |

Impractical Jokers did this when the four guys all got a Gag Haircut punishment at the end of Season one, when the stylist turned the barber chair towards the mirror. Joe, who hates having long hair, was revealed to have been given a sparkly mullet. Q, who sports wavy black hair, was revealed to have bright red curly locks (think Little Orphan Annie). Sal's head was shaved down the middle, and the hair in the front of his head was bleached. Murr was given the hairstyle of a Munchkinland resident. | |

Wanting to be featured on the Canine Weekly Magazine, he wants to try out some beauty cream (which actually a magical concoction called "Enchanted" with a cauldron) when he puts it on his face, The scene cuts to Blossom's face as Pink smoke suddenly covers the screen, when Blossom can see again, she suddenly almost throws up and holds up a mirror for Ruff to see his reflection, and we get treated with a very gross sight of Ruff as a turkey vulture with his voice changed to sounding parrot-like. Cue Ruff having a Freak Out. Thankfully, Ruff's shown to be back to normal in the ending scene because the effects wore off, only to accidentally turn back into a vulture again. | |
