Straw curls? Yes or no?
« on: January 29, 2013, 05:36:10 AM »
So the question is do you like straw curls on your ponies? I like them on the super long hair G3s :) :

What a gorgeous lady :)

I love straw curls although I'm too lazy to make them often :P To be honest though, I prefer my SLHs to have straight hair so I can admire it's length ^^

Love them, but they are not fun to do. Would be so much easier if I had 3 or 4 hands :lol:

Not a fan. I like my ponies (for the most part) to have straight hair. Some need curls though.....like Candy Cane ponies. But they need loose curls.

Me likey, but I like it when it's more to scale with the ponies head.

Depend on pony. I mostly like curls on ponies with strips of different colors on their hair, so every curl is in different color... in general I like my ponies to have as many different hairstyles, as possible :) and BTW it's a beautiful girl on your photo :)

I love the curls on the SLH gals as well, mostly because it keeps their hair in control and out of the way XD . I have a few that need to be re-curled

I voted no, but I actually do like curls on some ponies.  I think it looks great on the ponies that originally came with curly hair, like the Rainbowcurl or Candy Cane ponies.  Otherwise, I tend to leave it alone.  Having said that, I also agree that it usually looks good on ponies with very long hair.  Custom ponies, too. :)

Oddly, when I straw curl, it doesn't look like your photo. Did you twist the hair before curling it?

When I use straws, the hair comes out pretty loose (like the Candy Cane ponies). I love curling pony hair, but mainly tails (since most G1s have such short manes)

Yes I twisted it as the straws I had were cut to short so I had to twist to get all the hair round.

This one I didn't twist and they are flatter:

I generally dislike strawcurls except on ponies that came with them originally. I prefer my ponies hair loose and free!

I love them! I've never actually tried to do any myself though.
