Title: Fading hair on Nurse Sweetheart?
Post by: TornadoLovesMelody on October 22, 2019, 12:46:14 AM
Hello!

I recently purchased a Nurse Sweetheart in the hopes of her being an upgrade.
When she arrived she didn't have working symbols though so that was a bit of a disappointment.

However. I noticed that her hair color is completely different from the other Nurse Sweetheart's I have and that's what me wonder.
Can she fade to this color?  :what:
Have you ever had any other pony with that dark pink hair fade to this color?
My normal Sweetheart (7 tales) has been with me since childhood and she has kept her color just fine.
[Please don't mind the untamed hair on the "proper color" Nurse Sweetheart. I've been lazy and haven't fixed her hair into silky smoothness yet.]

I wondered if she was a rehair and thus contacted her 2 previous owners. Not a rehair. Her head is sealed tight so I haven't been wanting to tamper with that.

Please share your opinions and if you have experience with that hair color fading.

Honestly, if you hadn't done so much due diligence regarding the possibility of a reroot, from the pictures alone I'd assume that was the case just because it looks so odd (the hair itself, not just the colour, with the two next to each other like that). And she was only out in one year, at the end of production...so it would be odd for her to have a variation in hair shade?

But it looks so evenly coloured, that fading seems unlikely?

Mystery.

Did notice her symbol seems slightly fainter though...dunno if that means anything. Also her eye paint is a bit bolder? So maybe it is a batch thing?

Nurses are really htf here so I have never had doubles of any of them, but I am pretty sure mine looks like your normal one. I'll have to check.

Well it is possible for all hair to fade, if put in the sun...

The one on the left does look like a fade.

Note the lighter eyes, symbol is permanently "on", blue of the bear is lighter.

Wow does that look rerooted. Also faded as I look at it? Based off the cutie mark I'd say faded if her head looks untampered with

The hair is concerningly smooth and free of frizz, how does it feel?

That's what I was thinking, maybe someone sun faded her or hydrogen-peroxide faded her ...
I just have never seen that faded hair before

The right one matches childhood colors =)
