Sea Pony Re Hair Gone Bad, Please Help!

[LightingElectricDream]

I Had gotten this Baby Sea pony Celebration, her hair was crumbling, frizzy, and mostly gone. I tried using my Fake Purple hair extender, It sticks up it wont tame. Its a real mess. I can order from dolly hair.com get the color "Wisteria" the price of that plus shipping is $7.00
Or I could find a bait like Blossom that has the same hair color and use that. I am wondering what is the cheapest way to go.
Help! I dont know what to do.

I bet ordering hair is cheaper, and you'll be happier with the results.

Maybe post in the Dollyhair trade thread and see if someone could sell you a hank of Wisteria? I guess that would be cheaper than ordering directly from DH, if it's only one hank you need.

you could try pouring boiling water over it first and see if it'll lay down...=]

I echo the advice to try boiling water--wrap the head in plastic or a towel immediately afterward to hold the hair down as it cools.  Sometimes this works with cheaper hair.  Unfortunately it's often thicker/coarser, so doesn't lie as nicely as original MLP hair. 

You can also see if someone has a donor tail in the color you want; sometimes people save tails from baits for restorations.  Donor hair can be rough, though, if it's had some wear.

Looking for a donor tail would probably be cheapest, but often donor hair can have some frizz. If it were me, I'd order hair. I think you'd be more pleased with the results in the end.

Really you probably only need 1/4 hank for such a small project.  I'll see what I have around.
