I've never heard of this dilemma before, but it makes sense. My Avon girls have always had dry, frizzy hair but I haven't encountered it falling out yet. Thanks for the warning! I guess I'll just have to be extra careful and plan on rehairing eventually. :(

Does anyone know if the three pack Tea Lily has the same problem? I don't have her to check.

Yeah it does, they were all the same =/

I want to chime in that my Sunrise has silky smooth hair and has absolutely no hint of breakage or damage o.o Can anyone confirm that this a problem with her? She's a favorite of mine and the idea of her hair doing this is not a notion I'm ready for

Oh, right - it's just I had a Peach Surprise in my sales box for a long time and never noticed any of her hair breaking. although it seems to be just the orange stripes in hers that are breaking.

My Sunrise might be a bad batch? Here's hoping. I took a pic for you. You can see at the bottom how it's broken off where I pressed it against my nail.

Dear Lord no, I adore this pony to pieces O_O I guess I'm going to be a bit obsessive about checking her now... I just packed her up and saw no issues but maybe I got lucky? *doubts it, pony tantrum*

This is disheartening. At least I know how to rehair in case worst comes to worst but this is such a gorgeous pony and I'm particularly fond of her....

I wonder if anyone else has noticed this on their Sunrise. We should take a list of the ponies who've had this happen to them. I knew about the Avon ponies but not Comet Tail or any of the other girls!

I'm going to go cry now...

Avon G3 Ponies Hair Falling Out?!
« Reply #18 on: May 08, 2015, 10:12:45 PM »
Hello
Has anyone had there two Avon ponies with the red hair fall out and the rest of the hair stay completely intact? I literally picked up the pony and "petted her" Yes I petted her softly... and her hair comes off.....  :crazy:
I brought some hair that match the red hair all ready. my sister is going to talk to the Avon seller where she got it from see if I can get a refund. but if I don't get a refund that's ok too.
Thank goodness I have a rerhairing tool.  :biggrin:

That's not good...I don't think I have any of the Avon ponies, but if I get one....I guess this is good to know?

I just posted something like this happening to my avon red haired ponies a few minutes ago... didn't mean to make a double post about the subject. well now I know there are people having the same problem. How sad.... or awful that this happens to them. well I just brought new hair and it should be coming in the mail next week. :D hope the rehairing goes well for you and me. I'm just a bigginer so at least I have a rehair tool that I can practice with.

This isn't the first time I've heard of the Avon ponies' hair breaking, but have we decided it's the colors of hair that causes it? The dye specifically, or did Hasbro use a different kind of hair for these ponies? That's really awful... What a shame.

I have heard about this on multiple occasions... But thankfully my Jazz Matazz has not yet been effected. I would be very heart-broken!

I was wondering if the hair was more cheaply made or from a different source? Since another two are discount store ponies. Very little of my Peach Surprise's hair is brittle, at the moment anyway so for her it seems to be colour specific too. So yeah, I have no idea really :)

YES!!!
I bawled when I took my Family Dollar "Avon" ponies out and her hair just started falling out! The value of that set is now ruined. I'm still glad I have them but I don't know when I will ever get the time/money to get them rehaired.
Now that read the orange is doing it too I am afraid to check them again....

I didn't know about this, this is awful D: Is there any way to prevent it, or is it inevitable?

No in my opinion her hair just deteriorates.
For anyone who has not had there avon pony hair fallout yet... i would definetly suggest taking a pic of the ponies hair now before it does falls out. So if the hair does fall out you can re hair the pony accurately. ; )
