Title: hair and ovens question
Post by: hlbmlp on January 23, 2012, 07:28:32 AM
i'm working on my first custom involving some sculpted pieces, and i know that nylon hair can go in the oven and not do damage.  I was wondering if the hair was touching a metal pan if it would singe or anything. i just wanna put the head in because im using a g3 with a magnet on her foot.  I reeally dont wanna rehair this girl again. the sculpt was a spontaneous thing i did at the end  that i am glad i did and will definitally do again, but i just want to make sure that i dont mess things up too bad.
thanks in advance!

Yikes!  I have frizzed nylon hair with a flat iron, but I'm not sure about the oven.

  I hope more experienced ponies can help!

i have only had problems with the lighter colored non vintage ponies with this.  though i have the hair thoroughly wet at all times while doing this. sad day for frizzy ponies!

I've had dollyhair nylon hair directly on a metal baking sheet without anything happening to it. I bake mine at like 225 degrees. I always rehair first so my ponies usually always end up in the oven with their hair on a baking sheet or touching it in some way.
