Title: Question about hair…
Post by: LupinHallow on March 01, 2022, 03:00:42 PM
Hi all! Wondering if anyone has ever done a pony with this hair texture?

If not, do you think it’s possible? Pony hair plugs are quite small and I’m not sure about the fibre thickness, as it’s more of a wool texture than synthetic hair!

Thanks!

Here is an older tutorial on yarn rehairs. (http://mlparena.com/index.php/topic,357506.0.html) :)

I've successfully rerooted a pony with yarn before, I believe I also just crammed it in. It's been a bit.

I've used both mohair and alpaca fiber and had to cram them in too, but it worked :)

A trick is to widen the plug holes with a thumbtack right before you put the hair in. You can also move the tack around in a circle kind of forcing the hole to open up more.

What the others said! You can just cram it in using a rehair tool. It's going to be very thick and puffy so you can skip every other plug hole if needed, no one can tell :)
