MLP Baby Meadowsweet rehair
« on: January 04, 2022, 02:07:57 AM »
does anyone know any web site where I can buy new hair for Baby Meadowsweet very similar to the original one? (I prefer not to use dye because I'm a bit messy)  :blink:

I don't think there is anyone that sells horizontal hair like that. The best thing, if you don't want to dye it yourself, would be to commission someone to dye it for you. You can ask on the Customs board - Link A lot of talented artists hang around and you might be able to find someone :)

This is really tough.
As someone who has tried to dye hair in thin horizontals before, it's actually even harder than it looks. When you look to do a commission, you'll need someone with a real proven track record. The problem is because the color strips are so thin and tiny as dye 'creeps' along the hair shaft more than you want it to while it's going onto the hair. Bigger/wider stripes are easier but because these 'family ponies' all have thin strips it's rough to do.
I always wondered if their odd textured hair had something to do with it. All them that are from the families have slightly textured hair that's not normal like everyone else so maybe that somehow kept it in place. The exception to the rule being dabble/scribble who's hair is striped but normally textured.

Thanks for your suggestion. I imagined it was not easy and that you needed a good dexterity, but I did not think it even needed a technique to prevent the color from overflowing in the adjacent strip. This complicates matters and I believe that turning to someone more competent than me, as you have suggested, is the best thing.
