She looks even better than new! Wonderful job. I'm so glad you stuck with it! She looks flawless.

Oh.  My.  Gosh!!!  She looks incredible!



Unbelievable, ktt, just... wow.  Really!  And timely, too; I've just started working on a Sweetheart Sister whose hair is almost Perfume-Puff-frizzy.  Shudder.  I'm so totally going to try your techniques!

Not using one of those super expensive irons helps, because you need an iron that you can control the heat. Mine has high and low settings and I tend to flick back and forth between them. The hair melts I find if it's too hot or too dry. So you have to keep the hair wet and conditioned. I comb the hair alot as it's warm and often follow the iron behind the comb and follow a pass up with combing. The trick is to work quickly and not leave it on the heat too long, and only do a couple plugs of hair at a time.

If your pony hair terrible frizz, trust me, you can't make it any worse Don't be afraid to learn! I was, but when I tried it, I was like "omg what have I been missing!!!"

I hope that helps, let me know if you need any links to tutorials!

Aww my poor expensive hot iron, and I will never accomplish this!  Unless I could find one like you did for a few bucks I could never justify buying an iron (wife doesn't curl her hair, and my hair is short). It's nice to know though that such lovely things can be done. My poor girls just have to stick with what can be done with boiling water and conditioner which hasn't be awful so far, but wow none of them have looked that bad either.

I love trying to save pony hair, but I will only do it if its a pony I intend to keep in its original state, and not if its a cancerous bait pony. I have a couple ponies lined up for hair baths, now I think of it. *fingers itch to comb pony hair*

Wow!  I can't believe how awesome she came out!  You give me hope for my ponies with frizzy, but not-as-frizzy-as-her-before-pictures hair.
