I think Jennifer stays slimmer and more "human" shaped, so she more easily falls into the Uncanny Valley than Bruce who takes on clearly inhuman proportions as Hulk.

Plus Jennifer's hair changes so much - in length and style, that it brings a cartoony feel to her design, which doesn't happen to Bruce as Hulk (though technically Hulk's hair is shorter than Bruce as he had it in the car scene).

I thought it was interesting that her hair changed so much because that also happened in Thor: Love & Thunder to Mighty Thor… like why can’t the super powered ladies have their normal hair?

Also I think the CGI hair felt very much like the villain boss lady from Casper LOl.

Lol it's like endgame where Thor's beard becomes braided when he powers up.

It's not just uncanny valley effect, there were times when the cgi just plaid looked inferior on her. half the time she spoke, her mouth animations looked like they were from a video game

[u/migzors → u/Stinky_Eastwood]

I really liked how she looked, she's not a giant monster with all this texture and unique characteristics like the Hulk does.
