At your service Whenever I see a topic like this I show my poor Nightlights behind :/ I hope people will one day stop using the stuff!!
If people have started using this kind of stuff again, I'm going to be doing a lot less pony buying.
Really handy to see this. I was planning to use developing cream after having it recommended numerous times on FB but I’ll hold off to see what happens. I will use it on my play sets though as the ones I have are practically orange!
Just make sure to never make your ponies touch the playsets once you do it....

The former leaves a film which can’t be removed without using another chemical (I can’t remember what) to break it down. It can also be transferred to other objects that come into contact with it and continue to react on them. Hydrogen Peroxide is chemically different. It very quickly breaks down into its component parts which are harmless (H2O2) and it can be removed completely with soapy water. So there’s nothing left to transfer to ponies or cause a continuing chemical reaction.That being said, hydrogen peroxide hair treatments often have additives such as bleach which could cause unwanted side effects.(Have been looking into this a lot since reading this thread the first time 😉)
I wouldn't buy a pony I knew had been chemically treated, but people often don't disclose this, and they should. Ponies are old. The plastic is already somewhat unstable. I'd rather have a pony with a few flaws from playtime than one ruined forever by someone's perfectionism.
When you guys are talking about ‘bleach’ I think you’re refereing to to hydrogen peroxide. If you’re using hair cream bleach there’s not much more in it but hydrogen peroxide, an accelerator (bicarb) and oils. There’s no ‘bleach’, that’s just a generic name for used for the product. I would use hydrogen peroxide on ponies for my personal collection but if I were to sell them I would declare that they had been chemically treated. All evidence so far points to hydrogen peroxide being safe, it was the acne cream that was a problem!
