My Rehairs!
« on: April 17, 2021, 01:27:55 PM »
I've been rehairing some ponies lately, and thought I'd share!

First up is Dancing Butterflies, my very first G1 pony!

Pretty simple rehair, just wanted it to be a little longer than her stock hair! Turned out a little thinner than I'd have liked, but otherwise I'm happy with it. Might re-do it some day though! Luckily I do the knot method, so it's a lot easier to take out the hair and start again from scratch.

Second is Locket!

I went with a similar color scheme to her original hair, but I changed the order and switched the white streak with a gorgeous warm coral instead, to match her eyes and blush. Still might cut it shorter and add some curls, but I really love how she came out.

And my most recent- Ringlet!

Ringlet is probably my favorite G1 pony, so naturally I needed two- one to keep stock (you can see her behind Locket) and a second one to rehair!

Pretty similar to her original color scheme, with a lighter yellow streak to match her body and the addition of a purple streak to match her wings and eyes! I also added a third row of hair to make it a bit thicker. Definitely my favorite one so far, though she's not completely finished- still have to reassemble and style her!

That's all for now folks! I think Streaky will be next- I wonder how she'd look with pink, yellow, purple, teal and a light green to pull her color scheme together?

Lovely rehairs! I like the updated colours on both Locket and Ringlet, and agree Locket would look lovely with curls! Can't wait to see your Streaky!

oh wow, they're gorgeous! Ringlet and Dancing Butterflies are a couple favorites of mine, and you've certainly done them justice.

Thank you so much! I'm really happy with Ringlet especially- even before rehairing, she kind of perfectly represented everything I love about G1 aesthetics and now she REALLY does for me!

Thank you! They're two of my favorites, something about a yellow pony with pink and pastel accents just really gets me lol

They look great! Love the alternate colors. Can't wait to see your Streaky and any others you do!

Thank you! I'm super excited to do Streaky!

They look so glamorous with the extra-long hair! I adore the alternate colors you've picked for Locket and Ringlet -- definitely an improvement on the original, but close enough that I had a moment of, "wait, that's not how her hair's supposed to look?"

I really love the colors you chose for Ringlet! She always felt a little bit off to me, I think she's perfect like that.

Oh my gosh, Ringlet is perfect! Excited to see what you do with Streaky! As an aside, Raincurl is my favorite pony and I have a Stripes I need to rehair. I'm so glad to see more love for this set :heart:

I finished styling Ringlet today! I love her so, so so so much

(stock Ringlet wanted to be a part of this too- also I can't stop laughing at Rainbow Beat's face just popping up, like she's trying to photobomb lol)

I decided to keep it super long, I couldn't bring myself to even consider cutting it shorter!

Thank you! I'm so glad you said that, I went in with the intention of keeping them fairly similar, but with a little more pizazz- almost as if they'd been designed like that in the first place lol!

I really love the colors you chose for Ringlet! She always felt a little bit off to me, I think she's perfect like that.

Thank you!

Omg hi! I smile every time I see your signature around the forum, I love the Rainbow Curl ponies so much. I feel like they are the perfect representation of G1 ponies, it's almost like the designers thought 'How can we boil down and condense the entirety of this brand into a single collection' and Rainbow Curl ponies were the end result!

I would love to locate a second Stripes for rehairing some day, I dream of having one stock set and one rehaired set because I love them so much.

They look amazing & that hair suits them xxx

Thank you <3 <3 <3

Adding the purple really makes her pop.  Amazing work!

Took a detour and decided to rehair Star Dancer before Streaky!

Streaky will be up next I think, then I'm considering my Scoops since she has a haircut and her mane just looks kind of flat and thin lol

That hair is perfect for Star Dancer! I've never loved her factory hair in combination with her body color, but this is fantastic.
