Is there an option for "only if they're going on display and/or I have the time and will to do so"? :P I curl rarely, even though I like how curls look on ponies! It has to be a pony I KNOW will be sitting in a safe, curl-friendly spot for awhile! No close shelfmates! Because the only thing worse than spending half an hour curling pony hair ... is looking at that pony a week later and seeing your hard-fought curls ruined. Noooooo!

I was going going to say something along the same lines...where's the option for 'I try but they never hold'  :lol:
I only curl if they had have curls originally.  They always fall out though.  I have learned a few tips recently, (like the straw won't boil into a ponies hair) that I might have to retry.

I've been meaning to recurl the ones who originally had curly hair, but so far I've only done a few rainbow curls and a candy cane pony.

I never have, but I'd love to eventually! I love how it looks.

I strongly believe curls can drastically change a pony. Just look at PL Twilight:

She looks so different now!

She looks adorable! I've been wanting to get my hands on one of the PL ponies, how's their hair quality is it any better or worse than g3.5?
It depends on the pony;Trixie and Twilight’s mane were soooo silky, but Potion Nova has really thick and nice hair. But it doesn’t compare to the G3.5 hair ;)

A friend of mine gave me her childhood Streaky and her curls were completely gone.  I used straws and bobby pins to give her perfect recreations.  I am isolating away from her at the time, so I can't post a picture.  I was quite pleased with myself.  It almost seemed like the ringlets were easier to do in her hair than ponies that came with straighter hair.  Do you think her hair would've been different than those other ponies?

I'll recurl if their hair was originally curly. I'll also curl a straight-haired pony if I think they'd look nice with curly hair (not with g1 ponies though, they've maintained their hair texture for too long for me to change it.)

I strongly believe curls can drastically change a pony. Just look at PL Twilight:
