There's no real standard and a different shade doesn't necessarily indicate fading.
Pink/red/purple tends to fade out to blue simply because of the chemical nature of those colors.

I like the variety.Quote from: lovesbabysquirmy on November 24, 2017, 11:09:03 AMPink/red/purple tends to fade out to blue simply because of the chemical nature of those colors.Oh good. So I just need to find a Fifi that is otherwise looking alright! I've realized that goes for light pink manes/tails, because several of my G3's that have light pink hair were actually supposed to have a more noticeable pink before.
I think with G4 they finally managed to create a fade-resistant rendering of it. Fluttershy from the Shine Bright toy onward has hair that looks like Posey's Pink/Fading Pink, but mine hasn't faded yet.There is a way to restore the pink, known (unsurprisingly) as re-pinking: Mix some kind of red Kool-Aid (or similar powdered beverage mix) with conditioner and condition the affected pony with it. Let the conditioner sit a while before rinsing it out. The dye will be absorbed by the nylon hair, bringing it back to more or less its proper pink.
