Disintegrating Hair Syndrome
Lady Frostbite:
Is there a way to tell if dolls have this kind of hair? Concerned abiut my OUAZ and Mernaze dolls wirh their atrocious hair
BlackCurtains:
You can try to boil perm it. Polypropylene doesn't curl nicely like nylon.

In addition to feeling awful and being prone to frizz, polypropylene also disintegrates over time. A bunch of HQG1C ponies have polypropylene hair too which sucks. >_<

Oh god, do you have any idea which HQG1C ponies have polypropylene? I didn't know they might be affected by this too >__<

Polypropylene just kinda feels stiff and crunchy and is very difficult to manage. I think this video by plastic_heartzz on youtube does a better job at explaining it than I'm capable of lol: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h4MQ-xO8ohA (they begin to talk about polypropylene hair at the 15 minute mark btw)
I wouldn't worry about mermaze dolls having polypropylene hair as it's not really something MGA currently uses. Almost all MGA dolls nowadays have nylon hair. The only *recent* MGA dolls with poly hair that I know of are the color change OMG dolls but they have it due to the color change gimmick working best on that hair type.

Clipper himself has actually stated it in this thread: https://mlparena.com/index.php?topic=397529.30

There are definitely other ponies that use it. I have heard from people that own the babies Candy Cane, Holly Berry, Dreidel, and Lil' Star that they have it. I have also heard from people who own the blue nippon pony that she has it. I wouldn't be surprised if the other nippon ponies had poly hair too. I have a set of the playful babies and all of them have it. I have Snow 1.0 and she has it too (well... mine HAD it. she's currently being rerooted... :P) Those are just the ones I know of, there's probably many more.

My Evening wear Sunny Daze has gone bald, and we had so many good memories together.
