Cadabra Posted February 9, 2013 Report Share Posted February 9, 2013 So I finally bit the bullet and bought myself a pony. Hasbro can have my $5, I got me a desk pony for work now. Seeing as how I have a coworker who has about 20 plush sock monkies on her desk (no kidding, it's like a sock monkey zoo) I figured seeing Rarity smiling up at me from next to my monitor would be a good thing. She is after all my favorite pony, so why not.So while she is super cute, I am kind of disappointed in the mane and tail. I was wondering if any of you have styled the mane and tail on your ponies, and what you did to get the desired effect. Rarity is fabulous, so I want to make her look as good as I can.

Cadabra Posted February 11, 2013 Author Report Share Posted February 11, 2013 I would suggest not styling your pony's hair at workAs would I. I want to style it at home and bring it in when it is finished. Any ideas on how to style her hair? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lerian Posted February 11, 2013 Report Share Posted February 11, 2013 A guide to how one person did it. All Mane six are there plus some others.WARNING: The first guide involves cutting. I have not personally followed any guides as I don't have any of the pony toys action figures yet.http://scaramouche-f...-Days-258834978Additional if you prefer the vidja guides.

SonicRainboomGirl Posted February 12, 2013 Report Share Posted February 12, 2013 TOP TIP: wet their mane down and brush it with a toothbrush. The results are always stunning.I curled Rarity's mane by brushing it out like I said above, then curling it around a barret. Next I pinned it into place and pulled it up with a small elastic. I put her under a lamp for about 2 hours, and when I unwound her hair it was curled just like the show. I did the same thing to her tail.As for Dash, I brushed it, changed the part, and then barret it down. Now the part is different. Then I clipped it to the uneven, bangy nature of the show. It looks great!I'll post pics later! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
