Brazil Dancing Butterflies w/ green hair

[kitkatvintage]

The inside of her head looks like a lot of the Argentina rehaired ponies, but again it may look different in person since its hard to see in a picture with the Brazil pony neck style. It could also be an Estrela "toy hospital" factory rehair. I don't think it's original, as in "originally sold in the store like that", but since we know that Brazil did repair toys at the factory it could still be "factory original" not customized. She's pretty neat looking, either way.

I am thinking factory rehair too, just because of what the inside of her head looks like, I wish I could get a better picture of it but my camera sucks as it is and she has a small head hole!   maybe I will bring her to Convention and people can see up close, it doesn't look like a personal rehair to me, so I am thinking factory, but I like her either way

Yea I was wondering if it was cleaned and the hair was bleached out...I do remember someone posting about their sugarberry and the tail went from red to blonde,and I can see how yellow would get a tinged green in appearance...she is pretty,and is it just me but are symbols more colorful and prettier

My best friend's Sugarberry is the one you're mentioned there. C: It was due to exposure to hydrogen peroxide and her mane, not her tail.

Here she is, her tail was left out of the hydrogen peroxide which is why it is still the normal Sugarberry color.

And here is a much more relevant photo, said Sugarberry's bleached mane compared to a US Dancing Butterfly's mane.

I don't know if it will be much help for your mystery, but I can see the potential of chlorine turning it green. I'm hardly an expert in rehairing either so no help there either. Good luck though! Rehair or not, I actually rather like that color on her.

OMG!!!! look at that sugarberry's hair!!! i am shocked at the colour change done to her mane by the hydrogen peroxide!!!

back to the brazil BD, i would think she is some sort of rehair on looking inside her head. does her washer have any sort of rust? do the little "seeds" look like melted plastic? that was one way of sealing the plugs instead of knotting. i have seen ponies with those little seeds before.

love pkw xxx

Hehe I wanna try that on someone! I have some Peroxide 
 
Yep, I think it could be burnt ends maybe? If that is what it looks like with the little seeds, her tail looks like it has melted something on the end then banded. So would she be a personal rehair then or factory rehair?  thanks for helping to solve the mystery everyone

That's most likely a rehair; back in the day, Estrela used to have a doll hospital so they would take the toy back to be repaired; Brazilian pony hair is so dry they would frizz after a week outside theys cards, and so the kids would send the pony to get a new hair; but in that case the hair would have the factory weave, if I remember correctly...
She looks pretty with green hair, makes her a nationalist pony

How cool! Learn something every day around here, I never knew about the Brazilian doll hospital

@angel:
OH WOW!! Great find!! Amazing Pics - I love yot Dancing Butterflies Variant!!

[Gingerbread]

Rehair or no she is gorgeous

[Sea_Breeze]

I have a re-haired Northstar that PKW mentioned but I haven't attempted to take her head off. I'm glad I found out about the toy hospital because I might have rehaired her myself had I not known  . So it appears there are a few brazil 'toy hospital rehairs' now.
Wow to that Sugarberry

[michelle53]

She's absolutely gorgeous, I love her!!  Wow Angel, you have such an amazing collection:)  That green-hue plus the length of her hair is really breath-taking; it gives her this ethereal, *angelic* and romantic look.  Sigh, so lovely

[angelponies]

Thanks so much everyone
Thanks michelle I love her angelic look too! 
 
That is neat a Hospital for toys to get new hair too bad they are not around here, I have some ponies that could use a nice rehair 
So was the Toy Hospital a manufacturer idea?

[LadyGuinevere]

She does look kind of cool like that! I would tentatively say factory rehair as well. How does the consistency feel compared to other Brazilians?

aaah! i was wondering who owned her

That's really odd. I also think it seens like a well done re-hair. I never saw a BR DB with a mane that long.
It's a lovely pony anyway ^_^ congrats.

The Toy's Hospital used to be Estrela's costumer care as well, they could re-hair any toy/doll with original hair, replace missing parts (we could even by replacements combs and stuff) , there are no Hospital left these days.
I believe the last one closed a few years ago.

Estrela still have a toy Museum in Sao Paulo, but they don't offer any other services anymore.
