Removing hair from G3.5 - newb question

[palaisdejouets]

Hi all, I hope it's OK to ask this kind of question here.

So I have a G3.5 Rainbow Dash with really gorgeous hair (still had the plastic protector on when I thrifted her). Is it possible to remove the hair from the pony intact without cutting it off with an xacto knife? Like, can I dissolve the glue from inside the head and pull the hair out?

I've looked inside the head and I see messy loops that are sticking up and covered with glue.

Not sure really, I've always just reused pony tails if anything. Hopefully someone else knows more.

I do realize I'm being kind of weird about this For some reason I love the texture and colours of this mane, I don't know why I'm so fixated on saving it! I'm also so curious if it *can* be done. I might experiment with dissolving the glue with acetone.

Acetone will......Sorta dissolve the glue but I've never really gotten it to do more than make it looser so I could pull it out the usual way. With A LOT of patience it might work....

Definatley can be done, but takes alot of time and energy an you may wanna just quit half way thru!
