Help with hair colour match for Italian Blossom/Lilla please

(1/2) > >>

PoserBeachball:
Hi,

I have an Italian Blossom / Lilla who has no hair at all. I would like to rehair her if there is a match for the hair.

Looking at some of the posts on Italian ponies I think she's the 'normal' one - She has a lavender body, now faded to blue, marks on two feet and eleven symbols each side. 

Would appreciate some help in how to figure out if there is a hair match for her as she's too lovely a girl not to be restored!

maycrestmom:
ah man if it were me I would go with  a purple like sour grapes that matches like magenta blossom ;-) 'cause in general those italian ponies are just an average of $10 or so

I think a regular rehair would be closer to wysteria = oh and those are dollyhair names just FYI as to source

have fun :-) regardless of your choice

PoserBeachball:
Thanks for your reply - she would look pretty spectacular with dark purple hair.

Though I'm not sure why, my gut-feeling is that I'd like to get her hair back to as near as her original colour as possible (odd, as when I do rehairs on more 'regular' ponies I like to change the colours!!)

I've only seen pictures of Lilla, never a complete one in real life - I have a regular Blossom here, would Lilla's hair be a darker shade of purple?

Not worried about her value as she's staying here anyway, she's very pretty.

There are quite a few different Italy Blossoms, you can see them in the nirvana gallery

The Italy hair is unique in both colour and texture, so you'll only be able to find a "best match" rather than a "true match".

I've had a look at DollyHair and there are a number of different lilacs in stock, wisteria, brambleberry, hyacinth and Twilight would be good choices imho.

Sadly I don't have any Italian ponies with lilac hair, so I can't check which one of the colours I've suggested is closet for you :(

Love pkw xxx

PoserBeachball:
thank you for the colour suggestions
I guessed it might be a 'best match'!

I've got a 'wisteria' tail in the Pony Spa at the moment (courtesy of wild-found North Star, though she'd like her tail back :) ) and some swatches of darker purple hair so Lilla can have a bit of a tail-trying-on session. She's a bit faded to blue now so she might need a slightly different shade.
