Hair Continuity

While watching Season 2, episode 8, "The Night of the Bottomless Pit," I noticed that in the opening, cartoon Jim had his hair parted on the right. The next thing I noticed was that live action Jim had his hair parted on the left. Scarcely had I seen this but it was parted on the right. Then it started switching from left to right in the same scene. On the left the hair was flat while on the right it was fluffy. Someone screwed up on this one to the point that it was distracting. Live action Jim seems to have his hair usually parted on the right and fluffy.

The same thing happens in Season 3, episode 12, "The Night of the Legion of Death." Jim's hair starts out flat and parted on the left, then goes to fluffy and parted on the right, then back to flat and parted on the left, during the same sequence of events where he wouldn't have had time to change it. It also changes another couple of times during that episode.
