I just curl the mane around the neck/leg and the tail around the back leg. For G4s, I may style some of their mane on one side, the rest on another, but I never cut, and rarely style in another way. I'm too paranoid. D:
Well, that's a lie, a style a custom G4 Firefly with a cut, and am trying to style a custom G4 OC with Scootaloo's mane. The back is easy, the front...not so much.
