Jumping right in rehair UPDATED with final pics!
« on: March 17, 2014, 12:54:11 PM »
My 4yo has three RD (different sets for Christmas, etc), and she wants a muffin pony. Instead of buying one, I got up the courage to take a RD apart to turn into muffin pony :)

Gah it's upside down LOL

So far, I've gotten three coats of grey on her.

I need to figure out where to get hair--Dollyhair Lemonade is the color I think I need, but since googling, I'm not sure if DH is the way to go?  Any guidance?

Thanks!

UPDATE: she's done!!! progress photos mixed throughout the thread.

I just rehaired with dolly hair and I highly recommend it. it is easy to work with and is so soft and is good to play with . do you have a rehairing tool ? because that makes it a whole lot easier to.

I was going to order a rehair tool--but reviews for customer service on Dollyhair makes me nervous. Or has everything been cleared up?

your first go around is ruff but it gets easier as you go along the one thing that is really important is that you have to make you plugs fairly big when you put the hair in or you will brake your needles. if I ( a 14 year old )
can use it then you can surly do it. just take your time and you will do fine. :biggrin: :biggrin: :biggrin: :biggrin: :biggrin:

I just ordered from Dollyhair and it was shipped quickly and I had no problems :) I highly recommend Dollyhair's rehairing tool (get extra needles too!) and their hair. Love it! :)

Good luck with your Muffin Pony!! Show us when you finish :D

Yikes, bad photo lol but I had to share! I can't believe I didn't screw up the bubbles.

Hubby gets paid on Thursday, then I can order some hair for her!

I have recently ordered from Dolly Hair twice over the last two weeks. I had absolutely no problems. I want to point out though she does take a few days to ship, so try not to get to antsy when you don't get a shipping confirmation right away.
