Hair dying question?
« on: August 09, 2012, 02:58:35 AM »
I have a bait pony i want to have black hair can I dye her hair while it is still rooted in her? She is also going to be painted black so staining is not an issue either.

I'm sure that you can dye the whole lot...if you're just going to paint the body anyway then there is no problems that I can see. Goodluck!

You can dye the hair while leaving it rooted. I wouldn't put the whole pony in though. Staining may not be a problem because she will be painted black, but the dye will seep through the paint. So if you use light colored paint on her anywhere, then the dye can seep through the black paint and into the light paint.

I would just dunk the mane and tail in. I might even go so far as to smear the head and rump with Vaseline in order to protect it from the dye.

I agree with Maniah  about the Vaseline :)
