I ask about fading pink hair alot... my general knowledge is that when kept out of the UV sunlight, the fading process will be so greatly reduced that you could say it "doesn't fade" in the darkness. There's a thread somewhere, and I always forget the link to it, where someone did a test of fading the dollyhair that relates to the "fading pink" color used in G1 ponies... and showed the differences in fading between sunlight, indoor light, and some others I believe... I've heard it happens rather quickly if left out in the direct sunlight for a while... I think it certainly makes a difference! I've had some ponies for over a decade in "dark places" away from the sunlight and maybe the hair potentially has lightened somewhat, but it has not become a noticeable fade out (like my super pink fading pinks are still pink after all this time...) I do believe that under regular indoor light it takes much longer to fade out.This is all based on G1s
Heh yup, I have my ponies displayed in a back-lit display cabinet, only I don't use the back light part - so I turned it into a secondary shelf/riser!! Right on the back of it is a ridiculously girly pink haired Steamer!! LOL I keep him in the dark in the vain hope it'll preserve his pinkness!!
Has anyone done an experiment testing incandescent bulbs v. compact flourescent v. halogen v. LED?
I too have some G3s who's hair has faded, especially Minty, as her hair used to be pink and is now almost white. I do think the hair fibre just fades and on certain colors than others. The hair I also buy from Dollyhair, the light pink does exactly the same thing and will fade over time.
