Title: Brushable Celestia hair
Post by: karonkun on January 22, 2012, 12:27:43 AM: Oookay so I opened up my new Royal Castle Friends set and immediately noticed that Celestia has one really short row of hair.

Is this normal? It just doesn't look right to me..

I know that Talking Celestia's hair goes from three rows of hair plugs, to two rows about a third down her mane, then back to three rows of plugs for the last third of her mane. I guess they're doing weird things with Celestias mane? Maybe that want want you to use the anomalous third row of hair as bangs on one side? No idea!

I suspect that's it.

I was going to say that too. Still looks odd, mind.

Post by: karonkun on January 25, 2012, 05:19:52 PM: Okay, well I'm glad to know that its normal. The third row does look like its to be used as her bangs, especially since its further away from the rest of her hair.

Post by: will2Bfree on January 25, 2012, 07:53:46 PM: Hmm... that does look a bit odd. I can understand the reasoning behind it, but I'm not sure I agree with the style choice.

Post by: Kalavista on January 25, 2012, 08:33:16 PM: That's odd! I never noticed until I read this thread, but just checked my brushable Celestia.
Well, at least she pulls it off.
:D

My understanding is that the hair itself is the same length as the rest, it's just that row of plugs don't run down the length of the neck like the others. The original poster, karonkun, put up a good picture of it.
