They do look different! Even identical twins, with identical DNA, are different. Most have a slight difference in height and weight. Many people have a difficult time telling them apart because they are focusing on the wrong things. If someone looks only at the hair, they may not see that their faces are slightly different.

In the womb, you can easily tell the difference between fraternal and identical twins because if the twins are identical, they will share the same sac. Fraternal twins will have different sacs. You can see this in the ultrasound.
After birth, it is often very difficult to tell the difference between the two types of twins because babies often look alike particularly when they are siblings even if they aren't identical genetically. If the twins are fraternal it usually gets easier to tell the difference as they get because they tend to look quite different as they age. Fraternal twins are only siblings while identical twins are genetically identical.

∙ 11y agoTwins will always have different personalities, no matter if they're identical or fraternal, just because everyone is different, even if you're a twin.
Identical twins will look almost exactly the same, but will have slight differences (different birthmarks, etc.) because that's just how the egg grows.
Fraternal twins will not look the same at all, because they come from 2 seperate eggs.

∙ 11y agoNot all twins look exactly alike- Fraternal twins are brothers or sisters (or brother AND sister) that were born at the same time- but started as different eggs. Identical twins started as one egg that divided in two- they will look alike because they began as one person, and divided into two identical people. They have exactly the same genes.

∙ 12y agoThere are two types of twins- fraternal and identical. Fraternal twins are only siblings born at the same time. Identical twins started as 1 egg that split in two after being fertilized. The DNA of identical twins is, well.... identical. At one point, they WERE the same person.
