What is the halo effect?

Saw some people around me starting to genuinely take belief in bp because they witnessed a “halo effect” just wondering what that is?

Halo effect is just someone having a feature that brings them out more like colored eyes or being tall lol

halo effect - the tendency for an impression created in one area to influence opinion in another area.

The halo effect often occurs when we consider appearances. A classic example is when one assumes that a physically attractive individual is likely to also be kind, intelligent, and sociable. We are inclined to attribute positive characteristics to this attractive person even if we have never interacted with them.
