I wish I could rehair at work hahaha

Me too. Especially considering where I work, it would make me laugh if I could do that in front of certain people.

Hi guys

The weather has been rainy here and I have 3 dogs that are terrifed of thunder so I've had three scared pooches piled on top of me My female poodle stares at them like they're crazy. "What? It's just thunder. Get over it!"

Michelle, I can't wait to see your lovely wingers I have started my first rehair and I have half her mane done. It's taken me 5 hours Does it always take that long or am I just slow because I'm a newbie?

[Lady Starflower]

Hahahaha I can just see all your dogs jumping on you when the thunder starts lol

Wow 5 hours....it'll probably take me that long too when I attempt to learn to rehair (which is soon hopefully)

[Enolaalone]

What method do you use Shen? I usually rehair whilst watching TV, so I have no idea how long it takes me to do a pony. I do a version of the needle and thread method, which apparently takes longer than the method with a rehair tool, but doesn't require glue

[Shenanigans]

It's not so bad except when my (very overweight) male poodle wants to sit on my face!

I am rehairing with a needle and fishing line I met up with Kaoskat and she showed me how, but I'm wondering if I have the strands of hair too thick because they're hard to pull through the holes I'm having difficulty seeing the holes as well and have a flashlight handy to see inside

I think 5 hours is a pretty darn good speed!! My first rehair waaaaay longer than that, but I was also watching TV too and distractions happened. 

*dances about*
I'm expecting some dollyhair and have 3 new re-hairs planned now. I can't wait until it gets here!!

Looking forward to the pics Michelle!!! (Are we going to get the 200+ army pics soon too!?  )

Hmm maybe, are you knotting them and then doubling them up? The hair should kind of naturally fall into small sections which are roughly the right size for each plug

Who are you rehairing?

[Lady Starflower]

Can't wait to see everyone's rehairs!!! I really need to learn

[Shenanigans]

The Dollyhair kind of separates into strands and I put four of them together. I'm wondering if I should put just two or three together instead! I'm knotting them and they are doubled and I pull them through. She looks to have quite thick hair so far

I'm doing the Bride pony I cut off her hair years ago I'm still kicking myself over that!

Ginger, I don't feel so slow then I'm excited to see everyone's rehairs

As soon as my Army Swap box arrives, I'll post some group shots of all my wingers.  I'm running out of room though!

Well I said goodbye to my kitty today. Mr Bear was 19 and recently he started going down hill really fast and this morning he passed away. On one of my ponies. G3 Silverglow fell off her shelf last night (still not sure how) and he rested his head on her tail. I was super close to this cat. His mom died just after his litter was born (she was hit by a car) so my mom, my friend and I raised the kittens and Mr Bear and I formed a really close bond. I'm not sure what I'm going to do without him, it's going to be very strange not having him around anymore.

Sorry to be such a downer. : (

[Enolaalone]

Massive hugs for you Lady S So sorry about your cat. It's always hard when pets die, I can't imagine how hard it must be when your pet was so old and you've been through so much with him. Hope you'll be okay.

[michelle53]

I'm so sorry to hear about your loss Lady S.  I'll keep you and Mr. Bear in my prayers.

[Lady Starflower]

Thanks guys it means a lot.

To add insult to injury the neighborhood cat that we fed got hit by a car today. Not a good day for our cats : (
