Title: Need hair match for UK Vanilla Treat - also Do you have a Lucky Clover hank?
Post by: heftysmurf76 on July 16, 2017, 03:40:38 PM
Hello everypony!
I'm here once again in search of a hair matches for UKs Vanilla treat (I don't think she's neon Like Surprise's hair but a pineapple color) and Cascade...

Does anyone know what color I would use and do you have a hank of it?   I'd Prefer not to use Dollyhair.com as I have had some bad experiences with them and Retro Dolls US Is currently out of stock....Any help would be greatly appreciated

*cross posted*'

EDIT-Lucky Clover is Cascades match, hanks still needed, also need to know if Mango tango or Golden Delicious are matches for Vanilla Treat!

Cascade is Lucky Clover and I *think* Vanilla Treat is either Golden Delicious to Mango Tango (I don't have her, so I'm not 100% sure which is a match)

Sadly I have neither colour to share as I need them for commissions I have lined up :(

I have both Vanilla Treats and Cascade, and I am very picky about hair matches.

Lucky Clover is a very close match for Cascade, although it does not match 100% upon close inspection.  Less picky restorers would probably say it's a match.  Unfortunately I have used up my Unlucky Clover so I can't compare, but I suspect it would be even less a match since it is less vibrant than Lucky Clover and Lucky Clover is so close.  Bear in mind that colors can fade over time if you are doing a partial rehair and not a full one; it is possible that a faded Cascade might match Unlucky Clover more closely.

Golden Delicious is similar to Vanilla Treat's color, but not a close match.  Like Pineapple and Mango Tango it is too orange, and too translucent.  Vanilla Treat's hair is matte.  Perhaps Napalm (more likely, since it is matte) or Butterfly would be closer?  I don't have either to compare, unfortunately.

WOW! Excellent information! Thank you. I'm not a picky collector/matcher, so I THINK I will be ok if its not a perfect match, I guess I will have to take a chance I'm not sure yet though, i'd still like to gather more information...
I heard from someone who has Mainsail , that her hair color is a VERY close match to Vanilla Treat's unfortunately Mainsail is not listed for a match up on any site, so more information is still needed...
