Replacing just one hair plug?

[Sandra]

I am currently at the Fair and  got a good deal on G1. Only thing is that one of the hair plugs is missing. I know people do rehairs, but is it possible to replace only one plug in the mane instead of doing a full rehair? Sorry if this is a stupid question but I've never done one before so I thought I'd ask.

[Starly]

Yes.

Yep shouldn't take more than a few minutes

Maybe if you are lucky, you could see if anyone has their customizing stuff, and have it done right there at the fair!

Oh yes, you can probably take a small piece of the tail from an inconspicuous spot and pop it right in.

I just did this for a magic hat who was missing 4 plugs, and I am fading the section to match the rest of the faded hair.

This! Count how many hairs are in a plug, take the tail out and pull off the clamp, harvest however many hairs, put a new ziptie on the tail... put the tail hair in the mane.. put tail back in. Voila!

Totally! I have done this on a couple of ponies. And as long as you remember its been done and dont really brush & style it too much you should literally just be able to do a quick external re root. I use teeny nail clippers to get rid of the root and then a few donor hairs from an old matching tail [or even this ponies tail] to replace.

I did this for Baby Ember who was missing two plugs I used a tail from a bait with the same hair colour

I do this all the time with ponies; I borrow hair from baits often. There's some great advice listed. If you don't want to take the head off I'd agree with hathorcat and go with a quick external rooting...

Yep it's super easy to do and i see you have some great advice already!
